Why? Japan is very harsh if it comes to critism. Meaning, if someone is being critisized, and it's adjusted critism, chances are you might loose your job. Because you messed up.
Since Yamaha (a once great music company - and the largest "high bidder" at fairs btw) is literally funding Steinberg by now, heads could actually roll. But I don't see that happening unfortunately.
I actually think more that Steinberg is at the point like of it's first "takeover" by Pinnacle, and at the point of it's second takeover by Yamaha. It's about that timeframe again as well. And the best indication for that, is that the company gives a sh*t about their customers and does what they want/think what's best for "us".
Cubase is flawed - more than ever. Ask all those people that were banned from the boards (before it turned "public" again). Ask half of the userbase here on KVR. Then ask the Nuendo users what they think about their current software. The response won't be nice.
As long as nothing changes, they deserve to take every brown matter that is slinged at them. Especially if they stay quiet.
I mean, SODDI reemphasized this again:
C7.06 did not get the treatment it needed. It's a "quick fix", a "quick fix" that took over three months.
Not only do we not know when the next update will be, we also do not know if the adressed issues since 7.0.0(!) are being fixed (the broken ASIO system and huge ASIO load being one major factor!). Neither do we know if we have to actually pay for the fix again, and then 3-4 months later, we have to again pay for the next major version. Wouldn't surprise me at all.
I remember something like this happening with Cubase 4 (sans the paid interim versions). All too well actually. To a certain extend also Cubase SX2 (2.2 was released, about 2 months later, SX3 with the "it's getting hot in here" campaign). Apparently, Steinberg did not learn. So again - brown matter, etc.

Not that much more, but definitely nothing less.
I'm not their constant pay-for-beta tester.
If someone is in the mood doing the math how much I spent for Steinberg tools... I'm with them since 1995, and I think I jumped on WL3 early 2000's.
Tell you what - the next AES con starts tomorrow. Who knows what happens in terms of news. But I don't keep my hopes up anymore.
And neither should you people.
