Cubase Pro 8 out now

Good news!

Lots of new features, but the best news is probably this:

 

Massive engine rebuild

 

Cubase 8 is probably the most efficient, and fast DAW software available today. For this version we completely rebuilt the entire engine that runs Cubase to make it much faster, more fluid, more snappy. During development, we set up pretty ambitious target benchmarks, and the results speak for themselves.

 

Large projects open up to 4 times faster, the MixConsole twice as fast. The new audio engine now also means that even the most complex instruments and plug-ins run with stunning efficiency. This allows a lot lower latency while not out-powering your computer.

 

The previous versions of Cubase were all still powered by the original Nuendo engine, which dated back to the late 90's, I believe.

I don't see a big reason to upgrade honestly. I am extremely happy with 7.5.

 

I'm with Ya Jim. Love my 7.5. Got plenty still to learn about it. I may upgrade down the road when VST support is more solid. I got other software needing upgrading or purchasing ahead of this. The U-he family for sure, on the fence on K10 (got K9U), Arturia V-Col 4 from V3. So many toys and so little time. Finals this week and I get a month off. Maybe I can play a little.
