Cubase....The Inspector...we need to talk

Does anybody else find the inspector confusing? I’m not sure if it’s just me being simple…
but Logic’s inspector is how it should be done.

Yes - our take is a redesign should include displaying region based quantization settings, or something like the inherited base region parameters Logic implements. That would save mouse clicks as you would not have to use the quantize panel or the key editor to apply Q per region. You could then recall what you already set for (different) Q values in regions of MIDI data - not recalled/visible anywhere in Cubase/Nuendo. Instead of arrow or fold down menus other DAWs just do an automatic context related switch where what is displayed in the inspector automatically changes and is visible by default depending upon what you click on in your arrangement window. But it would likely break backwards compatability with old projects, so they probably won’t do it.

Display and set quantization parameters per MIDI region (regardless of track)
