There are a few things that come to mind when seeing this:
It,s probably something that,s will be a game changer or something that will intergrade the iphone and ipad more into desktop realm. Can,t make this statement by it just being a app for the iphone or ipad.
1.Cubase 7.5 with a supporting app for the iphone (to control the software from your iphone).
2.Groove agent 4 with a supporting app for the iphone (to control the software from your iphone).
3.New hardware with a supporting app for the iphone.
Considering Apple is losing market share fast to Android and now to Windows 8.1, it would be utterly stupid for Steinberg to push yet another useless trick for idevices.
It must be something else. I hope it’s a decent control surface, like all the CMC’s in a single unit.
Jeez Steinberg, way to let Apple do your thinking for you…(consider what Logic Pro X did with the iPad). That would be pretty low for a company like Steinberg.
That is true, I didn’t notice that before. Maybe it’s something that will replace iCPro, and that would explain why they have been silent on the supposedly upcoming Android version. The new product will likely be available for both platforms, and if Steinberg are smart, for Windows too.
Well it looks as if steinberg promoting IOS for music tasks at their Facebook Page,
also the UR sound card connectivity to iPad is here now, so probably its gonna be an IOS “change everything” thing !
At least for me. I don’t use any Apple devices/software in my setup. If it is Apple centric hopefully there will be something else with it that supports other OS’s and devices. I would really like to have a light version of Cubase or HALion that could run on an Android tablet.
If it is supposed to change “everything” one would think Steinberg is referring to something a little more general than a specific platform event or app. Perhaps they are introducing a new fresh protocol, e.g. like mLAN or equivalent, since VST2 development has ended, that’ll marry VST3, MIDI, Audio, Video, Cubase, HALion and hardware, etc. together? Of course, it could be more specific… maybe Cubasis for Windows 8, or it may just be Cubase 7.5 or HALion 6?
Hmmm… what they think would change everything is possibly very different than what we would consider as such.
USB eLicenser alterations? An optional online eLicenser, multiple instances across two or more concurrent computers? Steinberg software for rent? A new instrument or another awesome synthesis engine perhaps? The Crusade Revisited, the choral plugin? Direct audio feed into NSA servers?
Hype sounds very good, and it could be anything, but I sincerely do hope that everything changes on November 14…
…if it’s BETTER for US!
How about inputs (i.e. as side chaining for VST effects) for VST instruments?
for me this sounds like it is a controller that can “change values inside cubase” - then the iphone pic. maybe a software to control Cubase. LIke a frontend for musicians they sit in the cabin with their phone - and have some more or less limited control over the daw (volume panning…)
maybe it’s a new controller to give the NI machine studio a run for it’s money and the photo of quarter of an Icrap is just to through you off the trail till the 14th
