Dear Cubase 6 and Cubase Artist 6 users,
Great things are happening here at Steinberg! Based on the invaluable feedback we received for the initial 6.0 as well as the 6.0.1 and 6.0.2 versions, we have used the last two months to further improve Cubase. These enhancements will emerge in the next 6.0.3 maintenance update and I would like to take the chance today to give you somewhat of an insight on what is to be expected:
1) Event handling opacity
When slip-editing an event, the event will now turn semi-transparent just like when dragging and moving it in 6.0.2.
2) Gridlines in front of parts/events
A new preference “Grid overlay intensity” has been added, which allows you to set the strength of the gridlines in front of parts and events seamlessly.
3) Zoom handling and part names
A new event display preference lets you customize how part names and data on smallest track height are displayed.
4) Support for Euphonix/Avid MC Pro remote control surface
An update for the Steinberg EuCon Adapter will be released together with Cubase 6.0.3, adding full support for MC Pro remote control surfaces in Cubase 6.
5) Folder track
When expanding a folder track, the track list now doesn’t scroll to keep the focus on the track folder.
The original issue is described in more detail at: BUG: Opening folded VSTi tracks - #11 by Helge_Vogt - Cubase - Steinberg Forums
6) Audiowarp
a) When playing back warped material in a loop for an extended time, the audio quality remains intact.
The original issue is described in more detail at: BUG 6.0.2 - Horrible Warping Behavior after looping a while - Cubase - Steinberg Forums
b) A warped audio event now stays in sync, even when placed in a part, with multiple splits and the project includes tempo changes.

8) VariAudio
After flattening VariAudio modifications, the solo state in the Sample Editor will behave correctly.
The original issue is described in more detail at: Cubase 6.0.1 / Cubase Artist 6.0.1 pre-release available - Cubase - Steinberg Forums
9) Key Commands and Macros
Deleting a macro won’t render the application unreliable. Applying user-created key command presets won’t result in opening the Preset Browser.

10) Quantize
Some quantizing errata corrected. Iterative quantizing will behave correctly and approximate the chosen quantize preset and grid value.
The original issue is described in more detail at: [BUG] Quantizing sliced drums is broken(video/.cpr included) - Cubase - Steinberg Forums
Thank you all for your extended feedback once again!
Please note that we aim to release the 6.0.3 update for Cubase 6 and Cubase Artist 6 by the end of July.
Thanks for choosing Cubase!
