Cubase Remote Control

Dear Steinberg,

Imagine a laptop or a Surface Pro. Now imagine running “Cubase Remote” on it. This is a new program that doesn’t exist yet. Make it exist. :wink: When you open this program, it controls your home instance of Cubase.

Why?

1 - My USB Dongles stay home. I like this. A lot. A lot.
2 - I have 3 machines running my samples via VEP. Mobile isn’t getting 128+ RAM any time soon.
3 - All my projects are saved in one place. I don’t have project files on a laptop, on a desktop, in the cloud, in a lost USB flash drive.

How:

Don’t remotely view the screen. Just create the Cubase UI as an app, which can remotely control Cubase from anywhere. A Midi controller and a single stream of the master output isn’t intense network traffic these days. And that’s all it would take.

Crazy?

No, it isn’t. It’s modern. It’s where things should have been going 5 years ago. Call me an innovator or a psychopath, but I’m confident these are good ideas. In designing my own DAW, features like this are what I found solved my biggest pains and complaints. I hope you guys listen. You have a great product, but it can be better.

Thank you,
Sean

An after-thought: this could even allow linux-based computers (tablets, Chromebook) to work with Cubase.
