Midi Device Panels import not fixed in this update yet unfortunately.
I did get a reply from the helpdesk about the ticket I raised for this issue saying it will be fixed in an upcoming update, did’t say which one though…
It was an issue for me, but there’s is a workaround - import midi devices in Cubase 8.5 and use it’s Midi Devices.bin file with Cubase 9 - it’s in %appdata%/Steinberg folder,
I guess the fix will come somewhere in june if the schedule from previous version stick (as it usually was). Half a year with an unworking software in this area-brilliant
There is no direct workaround in 9, but to revert to v 8.5. This is really unacceptable.
After the update it happens like this, once I just try to add the audio part from 1st track.
If I do the same with the audio part from 2nd track, it is ok and I can even create a new sample track with the first audio part.
This is such a major bug that they should fix it immediately with a hot fix. Waiting months really is not acceptable for such a major feature that is broken.
It’s funny how Steinberg has time to release many updates for CP9… still full of bugs. Yet not even one update for CP8.5… At this point what are the choices? Should a user switch from one daw with major bugs to a newer daw with other bugs?
This kind of business practice makes me feel like selling all my Steinberg hardware and software and switch to another DAW…
I’m actually happy to hear about true solutions like these. Just like the upcoming new video engine, big changes take time, but are so worth it in the end.
Similarly, something like advanced (curved, sample accurate) automation isn’t a small job. When I get confirmation that’s actually being rewritten from scratch, then I couldn’t be more happy. I’m in it for the long game.
