Integration with Cubase

[Bob_Morabito]

@teacue

The kind of integration I would really love to see between both programs is a similarity for doing the same tasks.
For example the navigation functions through a score as well as the ability to reach a particular bar should be IMHO the same or at least as good as in Cubase.
I really love the transport bar in Cubase!
I find the concept of the left and right locators separated from the position locator very efficient.
I really appreciate how fast you can program the locators and how fast you can use them.
Also the fact that you can reach every bar without touching the mouse is an essential feature for me.
I really hate the way one has to navigate in Finale (as well as in some other Daws that I sometimes have to use!)

Please see–I hope this helps:

Transport toolbar

We have several playback functions already:

• play from the current position (the ‘play head’),
• play from the selection,
• play from the last place you started playback from,
• play from the start of the current flow and
• play from the start of the score

Hopefully that should give you a few options…

In the main toolbar we have just one button for playback. I think the default behaviour is that it plays from the current playhead position. This is consistent with behaviour in most DAWs. In the separate transport window there are space for more buttons and we have two playback controls on there, however I can’t remember which functions we assigned to them. However you can bind keyboard shortcuts to any of these functions.
