I was trying for the past couple of days to convince someone that was searching for a new DAW to use Cubase. And while we were talking about it I realised that a lot of the things I was saying made no sense. The workarounds, the decades long bugs, the things that just don’t work and we’re just used …

“Focus on what works” is not always an option as I HAVE to get through the things that don’t to complete the whole of my job. It’s just such a hippie thing to say to “look at the bright side”. This is capitalism. They want my money, and in return I’m going to demand for the software I paid for to wo…

@rashford6489 This has been my frustration at the core…more bugs for more money lol I agree with @AeroV on many levels…but I have done plenty of window shopping and as per other posts…there is no perfect solution so much of what you are saying is valid Its the nature of this business Cubase = q…

The WORST thing about Cubase on a Mac is the scrolling issues. in some windows scrolling ok, in others it’s accelerated by like 10x. It works ok with Apple’s magic mouse and trackpad, but with “normal” mouse it’s a disaster.

I’m thinking to get the stream deck for that exact reason. Can’t believe we have to buy additional hardware for workaround around the bugs that Steinberg doesn’t fix for years. The thing is I work at two locations so I will have to get 2 stream decks. Can you share how you set up yours?

Im interested in why you would use a stream deck for zooming? What I mean is that zoom, with an accelerator on the middle mouse scroll is already lighting at that and since its a tier one function, ime works best like that Then after this its a stepped operation ie scroll undo/redo zoom, to locato…

Is that just OS related…because its def same across all windows and context on PC

I use it to zoom the timeline. If it can be done efficiently with a scroll wheel, I’m not able to as I’m using a trackpad and/or the dial on a trackball. In either case it’s less than ideal. Steinberg recently added pinch to zoom functionality for macOS, which was a great addition, but it isn’t alwa…

Gotcha I think it would be super cool if peeps could post screen recordings with a PIP of what the hand is doing…always something to learn Im pretty old and a lot of my life was UI/UX for machinery and workplace so im probs a bit stuck in the way of what I was trained in and learning along the way …

I can't really defend this anymore
