Nice one, Jerry, and good luck on your new DAW adventure
 
I would still like to try Cubase myself, to exorcise all the old prejudices I had built up over the years, but even if a demo was now made available, I am all burned out from trying out other software.

There does not appear to be info in the 1064 page manual specifically about the differences.  There is a section about the Artist version but no description of what is missing that you would get in the Pro version.

EDIT: oops, missed the end of 35mm's post - oh well :)

Hi Andy,  Over the weekend I've been playing with Cubase AI8 (free from my Steinberg UR22 interface).  It has the basic audio and midi (PRV) editing. I'm really keen on it now (sorry folks ...) and becoming much more familiar with its foibles. I have no doubt I'll be able to operate it with the same workflow efficiency I had with Sonar. If I had one suggestion to make to Cubase guys - can you give me the same right-click tool access I had on Sonar.  Cubase is almost identical but not quite as ergonomic. It could also use the "star" tool Sonar has in that context. This is a very minor issue. Most other procedures are becoming second nature. 
Cheers

Absolutely, Jerry... It's all about trying to ditch old habits and learn new ones. I'm trying a DAW that uses "d" to duplicate selected events, but in SONAR I use "d" to toggle track/console view. So at the moment I have to spend some time deleting the odd duplicate here and there haha!
 
cheers

See my post further up - the demo is out. However, I'm not getting the email through after I jump through all the hoops to get it - tried a few times now. And it's not a demo of Cubase Pro, but Cubase Elephants as that doesn't require the Elicenser.

Thanks, Al, I'll take a look at that

Yea I've done it twice already but still no demo license yet. I'll give it some more time...

Re: the Cubase demo, I just heard from Steinberg that it will be live tomorrow. While the page is there now and you can jump through the hoops to get it, you won't receive the email.

Unless you have the e-licenser dongle already, you will have to try the Cubase Elements demo and check out the feature comparisons at https://www.steinberg.net/en/products/cubase/comparison.html. 

Thanks 35mm, I do have a eLicenser from my Wavelab license. So, I shall wait til tomorrow.
