A very important function, always forgotten in Cubase: display the markers in all the MIDI editor!
I think thereās a lot of good ideas in the first post in this thread but stability is the critical factor that would get me off 10.0.
Too many people reported that 10.5 is less stable than 10.0.

that is archaic, annoying, for producers who live traveling and do not want to be aware of a USB.
@lovegames You would be surprised, how many people, but many (in my case we are 16) select a DAW for small details. Since the great details have been covered by MOST DAWs. I use FL Studio, and Ableton for electronic music, and I have several awards for production. So no less appreciate the little details that make a difference.
and please, gentlemen CUBASE remove USB-ELICENSER
vncvr: kostal:Okay. Lolā¦ Iām sensing a pattern, my friend! Good luck.
The pattern is logical analysis and conclusion.
I have a personal list of about 200 feature requests spread out across multiple notebooks crammed with notes, some of which are the ones youāve listed. I know every quirk about this program like how StepDesigners CC modulators are Cubase global and donāt save/recall project to project which is annoying and ridiculous.
- Waveform anti-aliasing.
Nice but non-essential.
-Isnāt going to significantly speed up workflow
-Isnāt going to assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
-Isnāt going to improve performance (if anything decrease it)
- Professional metering
Nice, but again, can live without, have 3rd party tools as most do.
-Isnāt going to significantly speed up workflow
-Isnāt going to significantly assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
-Isnāt going to improve performance (if anything decrease it)
- Moving tracks in mixer.
Nice, but meh, Iāve lived without and can continue to. I think potential problems with this is the folders arenāt displayed in mixer.
-Could speed up workflow a bit, but not significantly. I always keep my tracks organized before Iām opening up the mixer.
-Isnāt going to significantly assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
- Warping on arrangement window/tracks.
Not sure what youāre talking about here
- Better fonts/colors.
-meh, everythingās fine, check your OCD maybe.
-Isnāt going to significantly speed up workflow
-Isnāt going to assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
-Isnāt going to improve performance
- Ability to turn on and off grid lines in arrangement window.
This could be useful with a key command but again:
-Isnāt going to significantly speed up workflow
-Isnāt going to assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
-Isnāt going to improve performance
- Multi-track free warp
-This could be useful, but honestly, I avoid Warp at all costs. cut-slide-xfade is still the preferred method - doesnāt degrade the sound variably across the entire project from one section to the next, doesnāt create artifacts, etc.
- Nudging of events and midi notes by specific musical or time values by key command and nudge tools (without the use of logical editor).
Why? What is wrong with keybinding PLE scripts? I think you can even skip PLE and just use macros for this:
āCut
āNudge Cursor Forward by quantize value
āPaste
- Proper EUCON support (reflect hidden tracks etc.)
Iām guessing Steinberg/Yamaha are developing their own control/console interfaces such as Nuage.
- Gapless audio engine
Nice, would be good to get rid of any slight annoyance like this
-Isnāt going to significantly speed up workflow
-Isnāt going to assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
- Folder group tracks (folder tracks fold/reflect in mixer)
Manageable without this, can survive.
-Isnāt going to significantly speed up workflow
-Isnāt going to assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
-Isnāt going to improve performance
- Range selection edit on event gain/envelopes
-Could be nice, but you can set up a macro to split the selection, trim by -6db and crossfade all in one key stroke.
- Stereo plugins on mono tracks.
Could be useful sometimes, but I hardly run into this and a solution is a keystroke away and couple clicks away.
- Range selection edit on tempo track.
Iāll give you this one, anyone doing a lot of tempo work, tempo editing is a bit finicky.
- Ability to show only event name or event descriptionānot both. Or events follow track names exactly always. Also event names to be tabbed thinly so they donāt overlap waveforms (see Logic or Cubase 5?)
Nice but can live without, actually if I were to suggest one thing here, it would be to resolve the name obscuring the waveform. the name should be behind the waveform or transparent or something.
-Isnāt going to significantly speed up workflow
-Isnāt going to assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
-Isnāt going to improve performance
- Tabbed VST views
This could be good, Iāll give you this one. Some sort of VST window management
- Slicing in sampler track
This could be good, Iāll give you this one.
- Smooth playhead cursor (see Logic Pro X)
Not sure what youāre talking about here - my cursor is fine.
- Inspector icons/workflow enhancement.
huh?
-Isnāt going to significantly speed up workflow
-Isnāt going to assist in improving audio/production quality
-Isnāt going to contribute or help deliver creative output
-Isnāt going to improve performance
- Elastic band in midi editor like Ableton
Not sure what this so Iāll pass personally
- Improved markers display/visuals
The only thing I would suggest here is that there is an option for markers to visually extend their legs down to the bottom of the project and to pin marker tracks to the top ruler or in the project Overview which would give it a use.
- Drum editor and key editor enhancement (patterns).
- Everythings pretty good to make music and compositions. What I would improve actually is the DrumMap editor which is still an archaic line by line text column editor thing.
- Triplets and swing grid in warping
I perform triplets. I think isnāt there a way to hack your own grid map? I thought there was a way to do this. maybe not.
- Better way to import and store swing/groove Q presets.
Sure I donāt know, I guess. sort of a yawn. Iāll throw you a bone I guess.
- LFOs/VST modular routing.
If youāre talking FL Studio cross patching, Not really what Cubase does nor is it what I want my head to be contending with while working in Cubase. Cubase hosts things that does this. Last thing I would want is for someone to send me their project to work on and have this random flower scattered everywhere.
-so, no. bad idea.
- Ableton Link support
-Why? Never understand why people have utility for this, is it even realistic? Thereās already ways of achieving this as stated above. Just do some work in Ableton, commit, export. Iām more concerned with improving Cubase as a self-contained program integrating other Steinberg assets.
- Paid 500 series type options for channel strip. Perhaps an even deeper Console 1 integration with strips.
They could do this with RND (I have a thread suggesting so), but this isnāt a priority, thereās already so many plugin options out there offering colours.
- Maybe a hardware controller for Groove Agent (see PreSonus or NI)
This would be good and is something missing. Steinberg has the software asking for HW drum control, Yamaha has the resources. They could team up with Roger Linn and Dave Smith (the aesthetics and nerd factor matches Cubase)
- A way to edit transient settings on elastique algorithms. Etc.
Meh, I mostly avoid these utilities but they have their purpose, if some tweakable settings gave significantly better results, sure.
So, itās only an alright list. And this is the problem with the Feature Requests forums, no offense, but there is a lack of deliberative criticism on what people suggest and why and we just end up with huge lists without a consolidated direction.Audio Connections
a.) Itās still the old GUI, so it needs an update regardless.
b.) While the industry swung hard into being mostly ITB, it swung back and leveled out between the two in which a lot of people are moving back to or are aspiring to work with analog equipment, gear. Eurorack exploded, 500 series exploded, Behringer is releasing affordable knockoffs, lots of guitar pedal makers as always, DIY pro audio community exploded, used Synth market exploded, pro audio external hardware effects are returning such as the new Neve AMS RMX16 500 and the Eventide H9000. All of Steinbergs new marketing has eurorack and synths in it.
Steinberg has not facilitated this change, in which people have more gear than they do AD/DA and that is a big problem. Audio Connections canāt be shared, they get stolen, they break from project to project and donāt recall properly sometimes. External Audio Connections to make it worse, doesnāt have a full-recall presets only individual presets. If you are running a studio with only 16ad/da which you are using sometimes 16 channels for recording inputs, and then 12 of those are being switched to analog gear for mixing, and then youāre having to switch back to full recording set up, and then youāre doing a combination of synth recording and external mixing, etc, etc. Itās incredibly non-viable way of working.
Now the vast majority of people who have Cubase, probably have no gear, perhaps not even AD/DA and just use their laptops headphone out. But this is important for Steinberg to facilitate professional studios and high-end hobbiests. Steinberg is at a critical point to break a bigger chunk off of that market for themselves, and improving this aspect of Cubase is essential to that.

Cubase is the DAW of details. Ironically, It needs to work less on small details, and more on foundational aspects and features.
Canāt you guys learn how to reply without quoting such huge blocks of text? Ridiculous.
+10.000 for proper Eucon!!!
Additional Cue Sends in Control Room would be helpful. At least 2
It is ridiculous that Cubase has still not incorporated multitrack warp. This has been a standard feature in most other DAWās for nearly 10 years. This will be my last upgrade of Cubase if this is not addressed in the next release. Iām tired of playing for useless upgrades. BASICS Cubaseā¦drummers need this feature. Iāve been loyal since SX3 days, and Iām ready to jump.
-
Add Scale Assistant in the VariAudio so we can also apply note scale features during the vocal pitch editing.
-
Channel Insert Chain Copy/Paste feature. In other words, copy paste for the entire channel insert chain. Despite of being able to do it KIND of like that just duplicating the channel, I got myself in situations which if I could copy paste the entire insert chain from a channel into another different channel would save tons of time.
- Allow the possibility to undo the changes in the plugins. So for instance, if I go to a reverb VST and change the decay, I could undo (and see in the undo/redo history as well) using the main undo feature of the Cubase. This would be awesome for A/B comparison when we change lots of settings in different plugins and then do a A/B comparison through the undo history.
Add this feature that is common in all other DAWs and I will come back to cubaseā¦
But I think a lot of new color features, plugins and that kind of junk will find the way into 11.5.
So you are quite happy with c11ā¦
Why reading the wishlist?
Other people are missing some features, that should not concern youā¦
Please, give as the option to change the track channel from mono to stereo (or the oposite) with one button. Until now, we must create new track and transfer there the events, plugins, and all the extra processing like automatization. I think this option will be time saver & necessary!
+1
I agree. Especially Ableton Link.
