Smooth scrolling in the project window but mostly in the audio editors would help a lot.
I am using the mouse’s wheel but It is very easy to loose track of specific audio transients when scrolling as it uses somewhat large increments. In the piano roll, the pitch of the notes kind of give you additional references but smooth scrolling would help a lot when editing audio.
This seems to be an ongoing issue as it’s been raised before in the past and yet nothing has changed.
The mouse scroll speed sucks!!
Please fix this… i.e if you drag the right scroll bar with the mouse it moves nice and smooth like, but if you turn the mouse wheel to scroll, it jumps too far and you lose track of where you are! With all the workflow improvements that keep getting added this seems like such a simple request and would make using the program much more pleasant! The way cubase has done away with the floating windows make it feel to me far more clunky and with the jumpy scrolling just makes it unpleasant to use, the poor navigation is messing with my workflow, if things get worse I’ll start looking at other DAWs.
Could this not be fixed with a simple update? If using the scroll bar can move the project smoothly then the mouse scroll wheel should be able to do the same, sort it out please!!
Not at all, I’m a windows user. I don’t understand why smooth scrolling would be a Mac user request. I know we can hit and hold the wheel then move around the mouse to drag the screen around. I my request was not smooth dragging, it was smooth scrolling. It would make working with Cubase a lot less tiring for the eyes. For those who spend 40h+ a week on Cubase, this just might be the most beneficial feature we could get. It would affect our overall experience no matter what your workflow is.
I’m simply talking about basic scrolling vertically or horizontally while holding the shift key but making it smooth. And no need to look far, just look at the way google’s Chome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox or whatever browser you use. They smoothly slide from increments instead of roughly jumping through them like Cubase does. Just scroll up and down this actual window to see what I mean and then compare with Cubase’s way of doing it. It almost feels like a strobe effect making me loose track of audio transients when I’m just a bit tired at the end of the day. It’s less apparent if you only work with midi, then you have the actual pitch and colors as a reference but when editing an audio track in the Sample Editor, looking at transients, I can assure you you’ll get lost every once in a while and smooth scrolling would help us a lot.
I’m not sure what you mean with smooth scrolling? I have a logitech mouse and my wheel can be set to dented or smooth and I can change the scroll rate. I’ve got no smooth scrolling challenges? Shouldn’t you just upgrade your mouse with a wheel that’s not dented?
No it’s not the issue, I work with the Logitech G502 where I can even have totally free scrolling without any dents at all. Do I have to make a video for you guys? We all have that issue with Cubase, I guess it does not bother some of you because you probably work more with midi than audio and you don’t warp and tweak audio in the sample editor all day.
But even in the project window for exemple, scrolling jumps in steps compared to clicking and dragging the scroll bar (that would be smooth scrolling). Can’t you see that? It’s even more apparent when scrolling horizontally.
