Steinberg Cubase PRO 8: new features
Compared to previous editions, Cubase Pro 8 offers a considerable number of new features. To keep complex mixes simple, it's now possible to assign complete groups to a single VCA fader, and the mixing engine has been fully updated, allowing for easier automating, routing and metering. Another important improvement is the render-in-place function, which enables you to bounce audio and MIDI tracks to a new audio track, including effects. That way, you'll never overtax your CPU, even with complex FX or MIDI setups. MIDI tempo detection allows you to play along with a MIDI track - if your recording is out of sync with the grid and tempo track, this new function reconstructs the tempo change and aligns your performance to the grid.
Allen Morgan Pop-Rock Toolbox
Producers know that inspiration can hit at any time, no matter how inconvenient. Setting up a complete session with instruments takes time, however, and before you know it, your creative flow has dried up. For those occasions especially, Steinberg has equipped Cubase PRO 8 with the Allen Morgan Pop-Rock Toolbox, a collection of 30 different construction kits with at least 25 audio and MIDI tracks each, which are routed to predefined instruments and effects. Using this Toolbox, you'll be able to quickly turn your ideas into demos, without having to set up a time-consuming session first. Get to work with Cubase PRO 8, and your creativity will know no bounds!
