Well, that looks nice. I won't be going over to Cubase anytime soon but I work at a place where we use Nuendo. I suppose we'll see some of this implemented in the near future. That Zone thing sure makes Cubase (finally) look like Studio 1, Logic, Sonar, Traction etc. No good idea goes unstolen I guess
 
 

be aware that Cubase 9 is the 1st Cubase to only support 64bit plugins and 32bit plugins no longer work in Cubase 9.  it's putting a lot of people off because of legacy plugins or just older still working plugins that no longer will be supported or work in Cubase 9.
 
that's a big deal.  not all of my plugins are 64 bit - about 90% are but there are a few that I still love and hold onto that I will not be able to use in Cubase 9.
 
just be aware and look into it if your planning to upgrade to Cubase 9.  you may have to do some homework and workarounds to keep DAWing.

I've seen Steinberg post that jbridge will still work with C9 if needed. In fact jbridge just was updated today for better C9 capability.
 
 

that's cool. I don't have JBridge.  really don't wanna pay another $50 just to have my plugins work like they did last week.
 
progress I guess.
 
it's good that there is a solution and that it's not just an arm cut off deal with it thing.

Just FYI jbridge is 15 euros. I have a few 32 but plugins too. Haven't tried them with jbridge yet though.
