Steinberg Cubase 11
The venerable DAW gets its annual boost up and spruce up, bringing with it some tasty new treats and a few welcome once-overs…
We’re finally nearing the end of this damnable year in which uncertainty is the only certainty. It seems we can no longer take anything for granted – except, apparently, for Cubase’s annual autumnal upgrade.
Normally, we’d crack wise about Steinberg’s predictability (or is it punctuality?), but as 2020 begins to fade, we find ourselves feeling thankful for their dependability. Cubase is an old friend, coming around just in time for the holidays. What’s more, it’s shown up with an armful of goodies. It’s a nice touch of the familiar in these tumultuous times.
And Cubase is nothing if not familiar. After all, it has been around for more than three decades now, expanding to meet its users’ needs and keeping pace with the swift evolution of technology. Along the way, we’ve seen some truly innovative additions to the package – VST effects and instruments among them. While this latest version may not offer anything quite so groundbreaking, it does provide a number of enhancements that not only help Cubase keep current with today’s productions trends, but solidify its role as a competitive professional studio production tool.
We’ve compiled a pictorial walkthrough of some of the most impressive features, though this is by no means a full list of all of the additions and enhancements Cubase 11 brings.
