Hello! Someone using any of the old CMC controllers can check if they are working in Cubase pro 13?
I’ m still using them in Cubase 12 pro (Mac Os 12 and windows 10)., and would like to know that before upgrading to Cubase 13.
Thanks!
My CMC-Controllers (TP, CH FD) work with Cubase13 on Win11
Hi,
It’s still working on macOS too.
Btw, you can download Trial version and test these system unique (old device compatibility) on your specific system.
Yes all good here TP,FD,Ai,CH , i think there would be a lynch mode if they stopped working

Thanks! Good to know it is working fine!
Very strange - not showing up at all on a Mac Studio running Ventura
Windows? MacOS?
My CMC-AI controller with a new M3 MAX Macbook Pro running Sonoma, Cubase 13.0.10 in Rosetta Mode, was non-functioning last I tried. I rebooted, toggled a few things. No Joy. (I reverted back to my older M1 MacBook for now, running Ventura, where everything works fine.)
I’m not sure this problem is Sonoma, or this particular M3 MAX chip, or maybe the USB port (much less likely).
I’m tempted to install Ventura on the newer MacBook and give it a try.
Again, all Rosetta mode here since the CMC controllers don’t work in Native ARM mode with Cubase 13.
Perhaps 13.0.20 might fix the problem? We’ll see.
Ive just tried using CMC-A1 and CMC-FD in Silicon mode, M1 MacBook Pro, Sonoma, cubase 13.0.20 and no joy. Re-opened Cubase in Rosetta mode and it all works fine. Hopefully will get an update for it to work in Silicon mode.
Hi Nathan, I was told by a Steinberg rep yesterday that, “that series is no longer supported,” end of story.
How did you get it to work. I installed it as an administratoras it was in installation manual. But when I ttry to add it as a New Device in Studio Setup, I clicked on it But it doesn’t show in list of controllers.
And, yes, I am on Win 11 using Cubase 13 Pro
I run Cubase 13 pro on a win 11 box. I just installed the drivers from Steinberg’s download after I upgraded to 13, started Cubase and all 3 CMC units worked straight away (I use a TP, a CH and a PD). I did not need to do anything in Studio Setup etc.
C13, Win 10 and AI. Plug n Play, works like a charme from day one.
I can’t get mine to work. Mac Studio (M1 Max CPU), MacOS 15.0.1, Cubase Pro 13.0.41 running native (not Rosetta). When I plug in my CMC-TP the ports appear, but when I try to add the CMC in studio setup there is no CMC device to add. The legacy devices shown are Generic Remote, Mackie, Track Quick Control and VST quick control. When I attach any of those to the CMC ports, the only one that works at all is the Mackie Control device, and that only works with a few buttons like play and stop. Most buttons, like marker set, next event, etc. do nothing or the wrong thing. It will let me create a Midi remote on the port, but there’s no json script for the CMC devices and I’m not sure I could create a script that would do all the CMC functionality. Do scripts exist for the CMC controllers?
I installed the Steinberg CMC tools pkg, v1.1.4 and checked that the installation actually happened. All the right drivers are in place in /Library/Application Support/Steinberg/Components. What I can’t tell is if those drivers work on M1 silicon, or if they’re Intel-only. Could that be my problem?
Is anybody successfully using the CMC controllers on apple silicon in Cubase 13? If so, how?
Hi,
I’m sorry, either Cubase 13 is not officially macOS 15 compatible (at this moment). So there might be some issues even from the Cubase side.
Do you have any older system, where you can test it, please?
I have an Intel-base MacBook and I think it’s on an older OS. It doesn’t have cubase on it now, but maybe I’ll install and try it.
The problem is that you are running silicon native. CMC will only work in Cubase under Rosetta 2.
OK, confirmed. I loaded Cubase 13 onto my MacBook (Intel, MacOS 14.4.1), loaded both the CMC tools and the additional Yamaha USB driver 1.5, and it worked. When I go to Studio Setup, under legacy devices it show the CMC controller and when I enable it, it works perfectly.
On my Mac Studio (Apple silicon, MacOS 15.0.1) I go through the same steps, and additionally install rosetta 2 (in the shell >softwareupdate --install-rosetta), but no joy. CMC doesn’t show up in Studio Setup.
So, either the apple silicon (probably) or MacOS 15 (less likely?) prevent the CMC controller from working. Oh, fudge!
I’m guessing this will never get solved, but who knows, maybe someday. For now, though, I guess I’ve got a faderport in my near future.
I’m guessing that with MIDI remote mapping you should be able to get most of the buttons working (not sure about shift though)?
The slider and slider mode might be a very different proposition though - depends what midi they’re sending. You might be able to get the slider to work on one mode maybe?
