Cubase LE
Cubase LE is an OEM product and
the little sister of Steinberg's professional Music Production System Cubase
SX. With up to 48 Audio- and 64 MIDI tracks, Cubase LE is a powerful and
complete music production software. Cubase LE is based on Cubase SX version
1.x development (actually it is a smaller version of Cubase SE 1.x).
- Just like all Steinberg music
workstation and VST products, Cubase LE OEM is a Macintosh and PC
cross-platform product
- Fully upgradeable to the
latest generation of Cubase SE/SL/SX (see below)
- Includes full set of audio
effects plugins
- Contains basic virtual
instruments to get users started
- Cubase LE offers the advanced
user interface and functionality from Cubase SL/SX version 1.x and is fully
upwards compatible
Cubase LE can not be purchased alone, it comes always with audio
hardware bundled by hardware manufacturers:
Cubase SX
For the first
time, a native music production system combines full-featured audio and
MIDI recording and editing, virtual instruments and powerful audio mixing
with the added flexibility of loop- and pattern-based arranging and mixing.
Cubase SX3 supports Windows XP and Mac OSX and works with a multitude of
audio interfaces. Add to that the seamless integration of external audio
and MIDI hardware, and Cubase SX3 redefines music production technology.
Top-10 new
features of Cubase SX3
Audio Warp:
Realtime Time Stretching and Pitch Shifting offer extensive new audio
editing and processing capabilities, including ACID(r) File support: loops
automatically adopt a project's tempo; audio files can follow tempo changes
in realtime.
Intuitive Play Order
Track for pattern-based arranging adds a new level of creative music
editing. Divide your song into sections, and then re-arrange it on the fly.
Compare alternative versions of your song and then convert them back into a
linear form for mixdown and mastering.
New Inplace
Editor supports ultra-fast direct MIDI event editing from within the
project page. Edit MIDI events in context with audio or video.

New MIDI Device
Maps / Panels support direct access to external MIDI hardware with user-definable
graphic editing panels. Import VST Mixer Maps or create your own editing
panels, even for the Track Inspector or the mixer's channel strip.
User-definable
Workspaces (window layouts) help organizing your desktop. Create and save a
separate workspace for each step of the production process. Switch
Workspaces on the fly, as if working on multiple computers or
monitors.
Studio
Connections "Total Recall" support (optional integration of
Yamaha's Studio Manager 2). The first step into a new dimension of
software/hardware integration. This modular editing system builds a
powerful bridge between the virtual and physical studio. Opening a project
can recall an entire studio setup within seconds.
External FX
Plugins allow for direct integration of external hardware effects
processors into the VST audio mixer. Use your favorite outboard gear just
like plugins - including automatic delay compensation.
Extended Freeze
function for virtual instruments and audio tracks with added flexibility
and improved performance. Freeze virtual instruments with or without insert
effects. Then automatically unload the instrument to free up RAM. Freeze
audio tracks with insert effects to free up even more CPU
performance.
New part-based
Volume Envelopes for direct control of dynamics. Fix level problems on the
fly without wasting automation tracks. Then move events with their volume
envelopes.
User-definable Color Coding for tracks and VST mixer
channels provides more clarity and better orientation - especially in complex
projects.

Do you
Podcast? Podcasting is the
sharing of a show or mix through itunes. Use your mac to share your mixes, music or radio show over
the web, so others can download it to their ipod and listen to it later.
iTunes is a
great way to listen to some online radio stations from around the
world. If you're the sort who
gets a rush out of others hearing you creations, you could consider setting
up and radio station on itunes. |
