Yeah, fk everyone else if they’re the kind that are after a soulless fecking AI musically driven existence.. why advocate such crap?!!
Installed it last night (upgrade from 14). First impression?… hmmm.
Nothing really speaks to warranting a whole number version increment.
The update to expression maps is probably the most useful, but everything else seams very minor.
However, Omnivocal…..its total trousers! The voices sound sterile, and certain phonetics produce a strong foreign accent. Extending vowel sounds across multiple notes is not handled well at all, and the expression controls don’t do much…..until they do and the transition is abrupt. It just sounds bad.
I’d give the overall update a 4/10, and omnivocal a 2/10.
Honestly, I’m not really sold on Stem Separation and Omnivocal — the quality just isn’t up to today’s standards.
Why mess with your own reputation like that? 
It’s called Cubase Professional, so I kinda expect professional features.
Maybe take a bit more time and get it right instead of dropping half-cooked stuff every year. We’ll wait — promise! 
It’s an update for the “beat makers’ 
its a joke. We still can not record into pattern events and still not convert from midi.
Instead of this highly requested features we get a new melodic pattern that has a lot of the things we would definitely need in the normal midi editor (but at least the melodic patterns seem to be amazing :D)
My Cubase is broken so will be using Reaper in the meantime.
The library app is a pain.
Moves empty folders to my new location.
Yeah… its like surprises in bed, “ i was expecting for more by the rumours “ 
Congrats!!! What I always felt was really needing to change and polish is now a reality : more intuitive features that make more sense in the everyday workflow, revamping cumbersome functionality we lost hours trying to make work, a fast UI engine that lets cores and CPU cycles for the most important real-time audio one.
My only next wish as a developer and a Cubase since the Atari times: Robustness.
Using the best modern automated testing (TDD) techniques they can use so that Quality becomes an automated step.
Kill Protools massive recent increased adoptions, by competing in providing the most robust, intuitive platform and everyday workflow, also in Windows.
What an amazing new developers’ team there is now, that’s why I continued to buy Cubase and be loyal to that team true potential even if today i use many DAW’s, Charlie and Manfred can be proud!
Great to read new functions arrive to this platform. I’m a user of Nuendo, so waiting to the update in a few weeks. I wonder if an issue since C13 has been fixed. It’s about select several tracks from external mix controller. Up to version 12 it worked fine, but with the new mix version in version 13 it has not worked again. Hope C15 fixes it and then it will be also included in Nuendo 15.
Has anyone notice it? I can’t find anything about it in the read documents of this new version.
Thanks.
It is the DAC redemption what counts.
well I purchased 9/27/25… This is the second time that’s happened to me with Cubase updates… I def feel shorted! its 39 days ago?
Thank you Steinberg for listening to the community. Cubase 15 pro has rock solid performance so far. Its super performant also the interface is not lagging anymore on a nvidia 5000 series.
it was a long and bitter Journey and it is working for me now.
you get my money for the upgrade soon.
The needed performance update actually makes a big deal. You can now utilize 60 spatial reverbs now like in reaper and have no performance spikes. The entire engine has become faster on windows 11 h2 where all other DAWs have a hate time. Because microsofts new update and background processes killing performance. Cubase 15 is the only daw on my tools list that has such a stable Performance
Also the expressions and notations are working now easily like in Dorico pro no hackery style of writing Dynamics and articulations in notation it just works and updates in the piano roll without to need it do twice
Thank you, of all the features, this was my personal instant buy trigger. 
The interface does seem snappier - I’m surprised though they didn’t mention anything about performance improvements in the release notes. How much better is the performance in your experience?
Yes, of course you the players record the parts in time, particularly if the players are in the same room. However, it would be nice to the respective timelines for each respective parts. It would be particularly useful for notation purposes to go from your Cubase session and transcribe by importing into Dorico.
Cubase projects can accommodate global time signature changes and multiple marker tracks, with one marker track being active at a time. So, if I wanted to edit/quantize same the bass playing in 3/4 against a drum track in 5/4, I should be able to have that bass track visually line up with a 3/4 timeline grid and go to the 5/4 drum track and that timeline will automatically line up. However, ultimately the project would playback as played unless parts were edited.
P.S. – there’s no such thing as “7/6 time” – I’m unaware of “6th notes.”
After some quick tests with Cubase 15 Pro trial - I must confirm there is significant performance upgrade to C14. I just checked the same projects on both versions - on C15 all is more stable. In general at fist new features in C15 didn’t convinced me to upgrade. However the performance improvement may make me change mi mind. Ok trial is 60 day - will test it more and then decide.
They wouldn’t. You get 3 activations and you can deactivate machines you can’t access on the internet.
This only made sense during the dongle era. It’s a void argument, now.
Hello, Might I ask are you on Apple or Windows?
Yes @Josh_Christian, and Steinberg shows no mercy to us 
Couldn’t they at least make a special upgrade offer for all late-stage updaters (maybe within a 3 months grace period) that is around 66 Euros, which would be the exact difference that people would need to pay to upgrade from Cubase 12 to Cubase 15 anyway ? ( the update from 12 to 14 was ca 98 Euro, the update from 12 to 15 costs now 159€) this could be a small compromise and nice gesture and make a lot of people in situation happier - and Steinberg would get more Cubase 15 users 
This could be, e.g. done as a special “black friday” offer.
