It must be very difficult to add to the Create dialogue (as an example) 4 checkboxes with a label on each saying “Visible in Mix Console n”, and then add the Group accordingly.
For all appropriate track types, as well, really.
The other option would be to just ‘Lock Auto-Visibility’ in each mix-console.
I’ve gotten used to it, but yeah it would be nice to not have audio cut out everytime I do something in Cubase. If that’s completely impossible, then no choice I guess. Still hasn’t stopped me from creating music.
I’m with you!
Agreed 100%. The best improvements to me in Cubase are always in the functionality/efficiency and ease-of-use/perfecting and improving existing unfinished or broken features. If it were up to me they would spend all of their resources on that for C16.
I’m so used to how Cubase handles audio that gapless isn’t important to me, though I must admit when I’ve experienced it in Reaper it’s totally marvelous. I would happily accept it in Cubase, but it’s not a priority right now when there are so many other little things that get in the way of workflow for me.
The point is that it is embarrassing and disrupts the flow when working with clients. I could also live with it if i am just making music by myself.
I’ve done it many times with clients before, they also never had a problem with it.
I’ve always stopped playback when doing anything like inserting plugins etc. It’s such a baked in workflow for me after 25 years it would take me a while to get used to NOT doing this if the gapless engine was introduced.
i always thought it was a good working practice to stop playback when doing this anyway.

100% everytime i add add an insert, it feels like it’s glitching out
I’m missing something here, why does stopping playback hinder your creativity? I’m interested to know because I don’t work that way and I’m open to other ways of working if they make sense ![]()
Basically, i want to hear the song as i am mixing. I may have a section looped. Or play the whole song.
As it plays, i notice issues, like, too much low mids on this one, you add an EQ and cut that out. At this time the song is still playing and i hear the cut as i do it.
Getting interrupted by the drop just feels weird. Loses the flow. Stopping playback also is an unnecessary thing for me.
I even do this when i used to do live venue stuff. Ask the band to performed a song and i add stuff in. It’s fun for both parties.
You can adjust your effects in your chain whilst listening to your playback.
It’s only when you add a plugin that the playback will glitch.
I’ve usually got my chain sorted before I get into the final details.
If I need to change to a different plugin, stopping the playback is no biggy.
Sorry but I’m not seeing an issue.
it’s not much of an issue, more of a personal feeling. if you don’t feel anything then its fine lol. This also happens with sends btw
i am just used to other DAWs and consoles not doing this.
I vaguely remember reading, somewhere, that the Control Room prevents gapless audio, and that said Control Room is unique to Cubase.
As I say, vague memory.
112 votes up. Seems important. I’d like a continuous smooth playback as well.
The short dropout/glitch is not the end of the world as we know it but it would be slick if the engine keeps running.
I guess some people are planners and some like to throw things at the wall and see what sticks, you have to do what’s right for you! There’s no right or wrong way…me, I’m a planner ![]()
I love audio in cubase and it’s handling of it is one of the reasons I use it but at the same time I think the audio engine needs some serious attention.
The small dropouts like people are mentioning and the clicks when you stop and start, especially with low end audio information. The transport needs a small little milliseconds fade when it stops and starts to prevent the pops.
On some tracks, for instance if i have the vocal plug-in engaged on it, when i hit stop the audio continues for like a half a second and it really really bothers me.
Good for you. I had different experiences and they were not very positive ones.
1.5 million registered users worldwide. 112 votes for gapless. Important? I’m with those who feel, nah.
Compared to other feature requests here this number is massive. But sure, it is an aesthetic thing and there is bigger bugs to fry.
