I’m also one who is staying with C12 until it breaks (probably from a future Windows compat issue). I’ve posted multiple times about the issues I have with flat UIs, no need to rehash. My guess is that more non-Steinberg DAW options will emerge/mature. Feels like the time is ripe for a new unified DAW approach but for now I’m good with my stable C12 !

I still believe in the guys from Steinberg that they will take care of this issue, because it’s really gotten to the point of boiling point.

I doubt that Steinberg will make Cubase skinnable, but
flat UI definitely needs to go, make buttons, fonts and sliders fat and cheerful again!

Never in the history of history has anything ever been brought back. (In the context of software…)
Wrong.
Windows Tiles is one example. Everyone hated them, so they had to roll back.
As others have said - flat GUI was just a fad and it’s over now, too bad Steinberg didn’t get the memo.

They weren’t “rolled back”, otherwise we’d have the Win 7 Start Menu instead of the abomination of Win 11’s Start-whatever-it-is.
Yeah, right, let’s derail another thread into useless offtopic discussion with your old man wisdom, which seems to be your speciality on this forum. In case you’re wondering: my first Cubase had parallel port dongle (Atari), so over the years I’ve seen it all.
Edit: I hit the spot, didn’t I?

Oh, poor diddums, did the nasty old man invalidate your argument?
Response #2:
I imply that Steinberg won’t bring anything back, you talk about Windows, and yet I’m the one derailing the thread?
Response #3:
The descent into the personal demonstrates that you accept the rightness of what I said, leaving you with no other recourse than to insult me.
Take you pick.
Oh, and consider yourself blocked.
