Steinberg: Cubase Studio 4

Music time!

I love music for sure, as you all may know! & with my PC, I own a music-editing program called, "Steinberg - Cubase Studio 4".

This program is quite the powerhouse, quite the program for any style of music (produced electronically, obviously), usually electronic - to produce in your own bedroom! I've owned it for a while, but have yet to fully understand all the concepts inside this software.

Here's a little sneak peak at the main audio-mixing/music editing interface:

Now I don't fully understand the whole program (with all the features, effects, VST's, recording and editing) yet, but I have been doing a lot of dabbling. Within this dabbling, I've been able to realize and discover many interesting things/features about the program. Which has allowed me to become more involved in music production/music-making! Also, learning and gaining knowledge about this program has allowed me to explore music in ways I would've never imagined.

I did not know till I started playing around on this program, that you can warp, cut, reverse - mix, pitch up, pitch down, pitch all around! Cubase Studio 4 for example has a few features that stand out:
  • First of all, Cubase Studio 4 is, "Boasting a range of new capabilities in its price range such as SoundFrame™, full notation features and brand new VST3 instruments and effects, Cubase Studio 4 offers unprecedented functionality in its price class." --steinberg.net
To give you an idea of the many aspects/features Cubase Studio offers, here is a quick list from steinberg.net:
  • Audio + MIDI Recording/Editing/Mixing
  • New VST3 virtual instruments and effects
  • SoundFrame™ - unique new Sound Management System
  • Fantastic-sounding 32-bit Audio Engine
  • Full scoring features
  • Streamlined feature set tailored for project studios, musicians and composers
  • Outstanding value for money, extraordinary price/performance ratio
  • Cross platform: Windows and Mac OS X Universal Binary (compatible with PPC- and Intel-based Macintosh computers)
- Also, if you're wondering/interested, "Cubase Studio 4.1 additionally offers significant features such as Sidechaining for VST3 Plug-ins, free routing, a Global Transpose Track, Music XML support and much more." --steinberg.net

I'm really glad that I gave myself the opportunity to introduce the wonders of music making! And, this is only the beginning - a lot more music production adventures are on their way!!

I was able to brush up on the Steinberg - Cubase 4 & Cubase Studio 4! Also, even more intriguing was the real sweet music editing software by Steinberg, "Cubase Essential 4"!
