CLIP LAUNCHER / SESSION VIEW is a must. Period.
+1 to keep this alive. Ableton, Bitwig, Logic, and Studio One all have this feature now. I understand that some people may never use it, but that shouldn’t be a reason not to implement something that could genuinely move the software forward.
If Steinberg and Cubase want to stay relevant, we need features that can excite people outside of the existing community as well. Otherwise, the platform risks slowly fading over time, and I love Cubendo far too much to see that happen. Please make Cubase exciting again like when you introduced Modulators!
The more I think about this the more I want it, but after doing some research on the subject I think it would be a much bigger job than previously anticipated, as it would need to cross-interact with almost all track type events and not just handle one clip at a time but whole scenes.
For people like me who can’t write linear music, and often jam ideas or such, the potential is great for idea management, and subsequent improvisational composition.
If you had to choose between this and:
Which would you choose?
- Session View offers unmatched live performance and clip-based workflow
This is not needed.
Even the top producers of Club Music who use Live make everything in the arrangement View.
There are other areas that need improvement like the PLE, MediaBay, DrumMachine, Improve automation, etc, etc.
This request has been coming up for years, and the workflow gap is still huge. A proper Session View / Clip Launcher would benefit a massive part of the user base — especially anyone who jams, improvises, or builds ideas non‑linearly. Glad more people are pushing for it.
…should probably be using another tool, rather than Cubase.
I don’t want to. I want it on Cubase. It should come sooner than later.
I want VU meters in the mix console, a feature that has been requested for at least 12 years. I’m still waiting.
You don’t always get what you want.
The other side of the argument:
