In this topic, I intend to explain my idea about the expanded and unlimited functionality in the Inserts section. This idea has been shaped over years of working with reputable DAW software, and some parts of this concept have not been observed in any of the software so far.
Why does this topic refer to Inserts?
I believe that everything is moving towards unlimited possibilities, and Steinberg software should also take steps in this direction. Inserts are a section that everyone, whether amateur or professional, will interact with. Currently, the features of Cubase or Nuendo may be sufficient for amateurs, but for the complex processes of a professional user, they fall short.
A relatively brief descriptions in the image conveys the essence of the idea, but if needed, I will explain all the details to you. I have prepared several concepts specifically for the Edit Channel, which will ultimately transform into an infinitely complex processing, unlike anything available in any DAW.
Even with the softwares you mentioned, I couldn’t manage to have two plugins in a way that the second one only affects the first plugin, not the entire track.
This concept encompasses all the relationships that can occur between plugins within a track.
I have added two options, “Parallel” and “Indirect,” to the list. I have incorporated choices and ideas into my own designs to maximize adaptability for users. I still don’t know whether Steinberg pays attention to these, but I believe the future of their products should move in this direction.
“Exactly, consider having a reverb, and after that, an EQ that only affects the reverb, not the track itself. This means that if we put the EQ in High-Pass mode, we’re only eliminating the low frequencies of the reverb.”
I am aware that there are many tools for different tasks, but my mindset is to have them within the framework of my DAW. This not only saves costs but also provides us with a unified performance and appearance.
