Steinberg Cubase Studio 5 at a Glance:
  • MIDI/Compositional Tools
  • VST Expression
  • Next-generation audio engine
  • Effects

MIDI/Compositional Tools
Intuitive music notation and professional MIDI sequencing has never been easier in Cubase! Cubase Studio 5 includes one of the most intuitive MIDI sequencers available. The Key Editor is a breathtakingly powerful yet transparent tool where melodies, chords, arrangements, and performances take shape, and where ideas are sketched out, developed and taken to their full potential. The Score Editor is a full notation environment completely integrated within Cubase and lets you view your music in the form of scores. Thanks to the full Music XML Import/Export support, even exchanging scores with other notation packages is only a matter of seconds.

VST Expression
With Cubase Studio 5, Steinberg has innovated even further to offer even more creative compositional tools. The VST Expression feature revolutionizes working with instrument articulations. VST Expression allows seamless, transparent, and most importantly integrated editing of articulations, with full control over multiple articulations in the Key and Score Editors. Articulations noted in the Score Editor can be played back immediately by sample-based orchestra libraries - in real time.

Next-generation audio engine
The Cubase audio engine delivers a crystal-clear 32-bit floating-point resolution and 96kHz sample rate for optimal sound quality. The next-generation audio engine includes true surround capability throughout, with each track and channel offering up to six discreet channels, ready for 5.1 surround. Steinberg's VST3 standard is also supported by Cubase 5, with many additional features including dynamic I/O assignment for plug-ins that automatically adapts to the track or mixer channel the plug-in is inserted on. Cubase Studio 5 also offers many recording features such as Retrospective Record, which means that no take ever gets lost because record mode wasn't engaged in time.

Effects
Cubase Studio 5 comes with an impressive arsenal of high-quality VST effect processors, including EQ, Dynamics, Modulation, Reverb, Filters, Distortion and special effects. Together with the also included "Legacy Set" of original Cubase SX 3 effects, Cubase Studio 5 offers a total of 56 plug-ins right out of the box, making it Steinberg's most complete plug-in set ever. More than 1,000 great-sounding presets, which really allow experiencing the excellent quality of these effects from the first moment on are waiting to be explored.

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.
