![]() If I wasn’t such a Cubase power user at this point, I would’ve jumped ship long ago, but it’s hard to adjust to other workflows. So many of us are so very tired chasing down issues and providing solutions that are not our job to provide. ![]() If you can’t make the current features reasonably stable and performant, stop what you’re doing and swarm on the basics. ![]() Steinberg needs to refocus big time on performance and stability, and releases should not leave RC status and go out into the wild until a much, much higher bar is cleared. I mean, really, how hard is it to figure out that typical Windows Defender settings interfere with normal Cubase operation when testing the product as one of the leading audio software companies worldwide, owned by an even bigger Japanese audio titan? How hard is this? I swear, it’s like this product is barely being tested under real-world circumstances at all, and it’s really inexcusable to be using your customer base as guinea pigs, Steinberg. You have plenty at your disposal to open the necessary back channels with Microsoft’s technical staff. I honestly don’t care nearly as much about new features if daily use of the product is such a drag, if I feel like I’m constantly poking around in my system to address some newly surfaced bug that wasn’t properly tested for.Īnd again, Steinberg, if a given problem turns out to be Microsoft’s, you should have all the resources at your disposal you need to make it their problem and not let up till they address it in-house. This whole market needs to change: they are focusing on the wrong things and it is driving many musicians crazy. Steinberg and NI are two of the biggest offenders in the audio market currently (I’m thinking of the disastrous Kontakt 7.6.1 release with the latter right now). Steinberg is and has been dropping the ball for quite some time when it comes to selling a stable, robust product. All of this can be done with large batteries of virtual machines running different synthetic test suites designed to stress out the audio subsystem and see where its weaknesses lie and address them. They should be hitting their product from every angle on typical (like mine) and atypical systems absolutely as much as possible. And yeah, again, at the end of the day this is Steinberg’s problem, no one else’s: it is up to the company selling the very expensive DAW product to TEST THEIR CODE ROBUSTLY, period. ![]()
