I read the thread, and I’m not trying to get on your nerves. I just figured “Option 1” would eliminate the complaints that either Nuendo or Cubase are being treated favorably over the other. Neither user has to be envious/impatient that the other program got the cool features first. Users will always complain of course, but wouldn’t it also be easier for a company to treat and maintain the two programs as one?
I guess I just don’t see how Cubase Pro is different from Nuendo any more than, say, Cubase Elements is different from Cubase Pro. They’re both “different” only in that one has more features unlocked than the other - while being the same program.
