Hi all,maybe it's out of contest but i never understood the popularity of that Daw.
i have just read many happy customers for the "new" features that our dear Daw for a long time....
More care in the Sonar marketing and could be the industry standard daw.....
Again.....i don't understand
No offence.......
Greetings

Cubase has at least full working VST3 platform. I prefer not to include new garbage like ****ty soundbanks but instead focusing on functionality of DAW. This is either for Cubase. As for new features I will test how faster can new Cubase engine be compared to Sonar.

Cubase is good, you know. It's a very mature and fully-featured program. But this is definitely an underwhelming update.

I am testing Cubase Elements 7 and i use midi inputs. Cubase is rock solid in my notebook, never had graphical issues with automation nodes or mix console, midi input have no issues and it working on 100%. Sonars midi input not work propertly. And i am plan to change from X2 to C8. Maybe i stay if X4 will have notation much better as now and fix midi input.

Having defined the spec, they had a bit of a head start. Given that (like MIDI) manufacturers can choose to implement the portions of the spec they consider most relevant, I'm sure SONAR's VST3 implementation will evolve over time. (BTW you never did answer my question in another thread about what made the VST3 implementation a "disaster," I was hoping for some useful feedback to pass along to the Bakers.)
 
At least Cubase updated the Quadrafuzz I designed! That's cool. And they still give me credit

Simple answer - several midi ports input, probably the most important function of VST3

Okay, you mean the dedicated event bus. What interests me the most about that is it's not restricted to MIDI. What are your favorite plug-ins that have an event bus input, and do you know of any that use an alternative to MIDI for the event bus?

Like that a new version of quadrafuzz is included.  One of my faves, Craig.

As far as alternatives to midi, I find their note expression for vst3s very creative.
