Pro Tools FANBOY Tries CUBASE!

Win Free Stuff: imp.i114863.net/a1gAGb
I finally tried Cubase. Coming from Pro tools this is So much fun... Cubase 12 PRO was so intuitive. I'm not sure I've just getting used to trying other daws... but this was smooth. I'm loving trying all these daws! I will find the right one for me! Want to come along for the ride? Reaper? Studio One? What should I try next? Logic Pro X ? Bitwig? Audacity? Ableton?? TELL ME DISCLAIMER: I am not a pro in CUBASE. This was to see how quickly someone with a working knowledge of a DAW could potentially switch. (totally asking for a friend BTW)

    I came up on Cubase VST, then Nuendo (was a beta tester) due to my post work, I had to switch to PT due to Nuendo being an audio app with a post sticker on the box (back then). After spending the last decade with PT doing post AND recording bands/composing for film. I cannot go back to use the Cubendo mixer. It seems so fisher price to me. I hate the way it looks and behaves. BUT, for composing/midi work, Cubase cannot be beat.

    I personally think Cubase is the Swiss Pocketknife of DAWs. It's so versatile and very professional. You can easily produce songs/create beats like you can in Live AND track and mix in a solid way like in ProTools and then it has so many smart features! I see a lot of people switching over to Cubase these days. Rightfully so, I think. The sheer amount of tutorials they produce to get you started in any genre, to even in depth Q&A with a Cubase guru, twice a week, live! That's dedication!

    @@RecordingStudioLoser When you posted you were going to start looking at other DAWs in a prior video, I mentioned there that you should look at Cubase. For me, I was told "get ProTools..." by an industry guy when I was looking for a DAW a few years ago. Main reason - because others use it. Not for price, features, etc. But because others use it and if you collaborate, then you need it. I chose Cubase. Composers tend to use Cubase a lot - movie score composers, etc. It is a smoother DAW to work with workflow-wise to write music and build up a score/queue. I am pretty happy with Cubase and just went to 12 Pro. Started with 10.5 Elements, so it's not been too long. Since it integrates with external hardware, a lot of people really don't need Pro Tools (whether the need for their own proprietary hardware or the annual license costs, etc.) Avid is pricey. The Apple (or worse) in terms of cost for the name (IMO). Their mix consoles are ridiculous in price - I bet pretty good good. I think your next stop might be Bitwig - which seems capable. Not sure about hardware interface support...

    I used PT all my life until I change to Cubase 8 years ago. I run a commercial studio like yourself. I need to use PT for outside projects sometimes......but I literally only use it to export sessions. PT is absolutely arcane compared to Cubase. like yourself I work large sessions with life bands. once you learn how to really edit in Cubase you will never want to use PT again. I am not kidding man. PT is so so so so horrible and slow. congrats on your awakening! your life has just become much easier! it is cute how protools have been adding features in the past few releases that have been in Cubase for over a decade. no joke. cheers!

    Glad to see that Cubase treated you well from the onset. I remember seeing one review for v11 describing it as the “ProTools killer” because it introduced in Cubase two features that kept him in that PT world: the EQ comparison/edit within the Channel Strip (useful for that BG/BD conundrum), ability to import tracks from other projects (including and especially effects, automation, and any other relevant combination). I’ve described Cubase as a DAW for one who has a composer-producer mindset. There are a lot of features that are MIDI-related and would satisfy the composer in me. But there’s also plenty of audio engineering features that satisfies the producer in me. Looking forward to seeing your DAW journey.

And then a few months back I got a macBook Air (perfect machine for tracking on location, since it has no fans) and tried Logic Pro X. Man... did I feel lost! Everything is in another menu, every button is elsewhere. I realized switching DAWs is a nightmare. But you're doing it with dedication and style. Respect!

    Pressing F3 opens up the large mixer window, that's what you've probably looked for. There you can really customize the mixer, setting up zones where you "dock" faders to 3 dedicated screen areas, left, middle & right. You have also mixer history where it records all changes you have made in the mixer and plugins, displays it as a list where you can go back and fourth to undo /redo changes. You can also hide tracks and have mix snapshots. Overall, pressing the keys "G" or "H" sets your horizontal zoom, shift "G" & "H" sets vertical zoom. Cubase is my favorite DAW specially for mixing. NUENDO is basically the same but with focus on the post production department. I'm using Cubase since V2.0 on the Atari. and i have to say: You did very well without a manual !!

    Couple things to try from another PT convert that also made me freak out. 1) When working with hitpoints on the left hand screen there is a button to turn hitpoints into midi - in seconds you have midi for sample replacement that’s phase accurate. 2) you can customize all shortcuts to be identical to pro tools super easy. 3) you can create custom batch processes in the logical editor (one click of a button and my entire project is colorized correctly).

    Cubase has been a new friend to my music production. For years, since 2012 I was only mixing in Ableton live, including music for both myself and my clients whom I mix for, but lately it gives me all I need. The one thing that is missing inside of Ableton live is the returns, there are few of them, and while you can make up to 12, I believe, it's still never enough, as you have to turn off stuff using automation, and it gets pretty confusing. Automation alone can get confusing too, because you have nothing to help you keep track of your progress, and I save everything, each little move after about 5 mins of time, and progress from there, using the letter naming system. Cubase is truly a mixing dream.

    In your "edit track window" you can choose if the "strip" hits the "inserts", or the "inserts" hit the strip. default is inserts into strip, great for tracking, for mixing I lean to strip into inserts. In the edit track window above your inserts, you will see inserts tab and strip tab and eq. next to the strip tab you will see a grey "mushroom" click that and your strip and eq are now feeding into your plugins. The small circles within those tabs if you click on them will disable or enable. EQ, Strip, Inserts. Yellow is disabled Great for "A B ing". In the insert's column, the bright green line can be dragged up or down. the slots under the green line are post fader, slots above are pre fader, so you can choose how many pre and post inserts you need for any channel. To access the "edit track window" select a track and hit the "e" under the solo button.

Also try not to have record enable while mixing on any channels, that's why you were getting some artifacts. if you go to preferences/editing/ projects & mixing / enable record on audio/midi uncheck. all that does is automatically alway turn on record when you select a track... you can always click on enable record when you need it.

    If you do live band stuff, then you should definitely try Harrison Mixbus 32C. I've heard a few Pro Tools guys talk about how they use it strictly for the mixing process and PT for editing. It has a great saturation built-in, similar to HEAT, but better.

    Massive time saver, first select the all tracks that you want to have sends on, then when creating the send try adding the insert in the same dialogue box as when creating the sends, all done in one go. Cubase /Nuendo are insanely good for mixing purposes. Great DAWs in my opinion.

    I've never used Pro Tools but I've been using Cubase since it was first out on the Atari 1040 ST. It was just a midi sequencer way back then.I stopped recording for quite a while but came back to Cubase when Cubase 7 was the one. Haven't changed since then and I love it. I don't have the patience or time to learn a new DAW. I am thinking about Studio One though. I have a lite version of it just to check out.

I recently installed Pro Tools 2022 and it was a regression. I’m really excited for you and I hope you’re able to find a DAW and company that treats you better than Avid. By the way, Cubase updates and support are baked into the one time price of the software and there’s no up charge. Please be sure to check out the extensive drag & drop as well. Your excitement is infectious.

    Brother, I and many others in Nashville have been using Steinberg for nearly 30 years from back in the days when it was simply the best MIDI programming editor. I’ve used Pro Tools and ALWAYS hated how hard they make it. I own Studio One and like it better than PT, but it doesn’t have nearly all the features of Cubase. Especially Cubase 12. The window arrangement workspace jump screens are amazing for accessing your channel, group, and FX faders. Quick commands make Cubase a breeze. There are a ton of 15 min YT videos that show exactly how to utilize all of the new and long time features. Cubase beats them all with regard to all the built in features that others just don’t have. And the price point is a freaking no brainer. If you stay with the major upgrades within the typical 2 to 3 year cycles, the upgrade renewals are cheap AF. Maybe $150 to $200 if you time the holiday specials. In fact, a fresh new Cubase Pro license was recently a total of $364 or something. I blew up my friend’s texts when I saw that price. Trust me, a 30 year Nashville producer and industry pro; Cubase is your best choice. I’ve been through the other apps as well and it was a waste of time. Including the Harrison. You can’t beat that German engineering mindset. They are beasts on mechanics, Neumann mics, and software engineering. I can easily help you setup your window workspace jump screens, assignable to Option+1 through Option+9. Plenty of arrangements with that many screen arrangement options. Just go to your “Workspaces” drop menu. Or look up a video on it. 🤘😎 Rock on, brother🎶

FLS has come a long way and they're constantly bringin out new features, so I wonder how it would compare.

    Same-I’m a Cubase/FL hybrid user. FL is NOT good with tracking with big projects. It can get bloated very quickly-and latency coding is *still* very finicky. What’s best is production music-you can have the best of both worlds. You can load FL as a VSTi plugin within Cubase (or any other DAW for that matter).

    I came to Cubase from Pro Tools (in the Digidesign days) before recently switching to Reaper. I will say that Cubase has a tendency to make you not think much. It's not trying to be an analog style setup. It takes full advantage of the digital domain by giving you as many time and effort saving shortcuts as possible. Occasionally I'd work out of other studios and going back to PT was always a bit of a shock. I felt like I lost my engineering edge.

Anyways after a Windows update the computer just became useless so I built a new one. Since I'd grown up on Cubase I got version 8 Pro and I've been running that with no issues! I'm itching for an upgrade, especially since versions 10 and 11 came out. They have awesome features! I love the live recording and monitoring features that allow me to run individual mixes for everyone in the band.
