I am interested in Cubase 10 Pro, but I notice it is not possible to demo the thing without buying a dongle. Is the demo of Cubase Elements (which is dongle-free) going to give me enough of a feel of Cubase to determine if Pro is right for me ?
For context, my current “go to” DAW is Ableton and I do a lot of midi editing, but am also interested in improving my audio recording workflow (which is lacking in Ableton, for example comping). I am trying to decide between Cubase Pro and Studio One 4. So far I have been demoing Studio One (which seems like it could be the right fit) but would like to give the seemingly well regarded Cubase a spin as well. I have heard that midi editing is much improved in Cubase, but am not sure i am going to see this with Elements?
Cheers!
