Hi,
I would really like to see Cubase evolve and learn from BITWIG and other DAWs.
The modulators on BITWIG make me very very jealous…
Steinberg has been at the forefront of midi and audio sequencing for so long, I hope they keep the edge!
It’s not a vocal chain plugin and a redesigned mixer window that’s going to make me want to upgrade to 13. The old mixer worked and there are lots of amazing free plugins so … Some other new features are cool but overall 13 feels like some stuff was added more than a true revamp.
I want a fully featured modulator functionality like in BITWIG for Cubase 14 then I will pay for the upgrade 
And please redesign the automation lane, when we open it to automate something from a plugin we should be able to ctrl click to open multiple lanes at once. Then apply modulators or draw automation.
Ideally this will make it easy to apply modulation to any VST synth or FX and help create tomorrow’s music.
I’m sure others will have strong ideas too. Big hopes for Cubase 14…

Serious post here, I’ve been using Cubase for over 20y and use a lot of software for music production & graphics design.
Cubase is great but really for v14 please Steinberg don’t put efforts on yet other plugins, we are overloaded with those on a daily basis.
Cubase needs a workflow overhaul. When you look at the way MIDI is operated, it is fairly old and archaic !!
We now have free plugins like STFU and FLUX mini that generate LFOs or enveloppes that could be routed to any plugin instrument or FX, ideally combined with the lane automation (imagine a multiplication of LFO times automation lane value)
So the MIDI operations have to be revised. Any plugin that can output MIDI cv should have an easy way to route to any parameter in the DAW.
For now the only way I found is to use MIDI Loop, cumbersome.
Also the MIDI Remote and Quick Controls could do with a better UX, I find the whole thing complicated, not exactly intuitive even after having looked at tutorials several times.
Big hopes for C14 for UX !
