Workflow Enhancements

Steinberg Cubase Pro 9 features a range of new features and enhancements to Cubase Pro 8. A range of improvements have been made to the interface, designed to improve your workflow by providing a simpler and more clean interface. The new ‘Lower Zone’ window provides you with a concise and tidy overview of all your tools and editors, ideal for everything from home recording to professional multi-screen studio projects. The ‘Sampler Track’ feature allows you to import any piece of audio for quick and easy manipulation. Sampler Track also comes with Caliedoscope, a dedicated sample library with hundreds of samples and presets to get you started. A new frequency EQ plug-in has also been added for in-depth equalisation. This can be used for everything from subtle high-passes, to removing problematic frequencies and more.

Cubase Pro 9 makes collaborating with other artists much easier. Thanks to the cloud collaboration tools, Cubase Pro 9 gives you the ability to share your projects online.
