Let the bashing begin :P Isn't this a day early?

Improvements*

MixConsole
• Visibility improvements
MixConsole now features better overall visibility and resize and window restore behavior. Depending on the zoom level, the channel names are now displayed on two lines instead of one and the font is rescaled for better readability. Mono / stereo / surround channel format now sports corresponding visual symbols. The Pre, Sends and Quick Control sections now feature consistent behavior of overlay controls. In addition the order of MIDI insert effects can now be changed, and individual MIDI effects can be copied via drag and drop.

• One-click plug-in access
Plug-ins in MixConsole can now be opened with a single mouse click on their slot position.

• Workspace support
The windows configuration and layout of MixConsole is now fully captured and restored when using Workspaces.
Voxengo CurveEQ 3.2.5 update
• Improved audio processing performance by up to 30%
• A static spectrum can now be loaded from a WAV file directly
• A "Load CSV" and "Save CSV" text file function has been added
• Routing is now configured automatically
• The EQ curve display now continously refreshes
• When moving a control point close to the maximal or minimal frequency, Curve EQ remains responsive.
• Spectrum matching is now working correctly across all groups.
Improved audio stability
To improve the overall audio stability under Windows, Cubase now ensures that the ASIO driver threads are using Windows MMCSS (Multimedia Class Scheduling Service).
Improved UAD compatibility
Cubase 7.0.6 features improved UAD compatibility, preventing "sample rate mismatch" issues.

Issues resolved*

Project
• Unfreezing a pasted Group Track now works as expected.
• When using the Arranger Track in "Pause after Repeats" mode, pressing the play button will start the playback immediately on the next Arranger Track event as expected.
• (OS X 10.8 ONLY): Opening a project from a location which uses Unicode characters in the file path now works as expected.
• (OS X ONLY): The horizontal zoom direction in the Project window (CMD and mouse wheel) no longer switches depending on the "Natural scrolling" system setting and will always zoom-in like on PC.
MixConsole
• Setting MixConsole to full screen in a dual monitor configuration and reopening the project on a single monitor system no longer locks MixConsole to full screen mode.
• Unexpected resizing issues after changing the height of MixConsole no longer occur.
• The names of channels, insert plug-ins and channel strip modules are now displayed with the correct font size.
• After switching the EQ band type, the focus frames in the Channel Settings window now disappear as expected.
• The pre filter in the Channel Settings window now shows the on/off/bypass buttons.
• Insert preset names are updated correctly when the insert effect is changed.
• Track pictures on channels in MixConsole are now always centered properly.
• The Solo defeat tooltip now displays the correct modifier ("ALT+CTRL").
• Pressing a key on the computer keyboard does not interrupt writing automation.
• Disabling a track no longer disconnects the side-chain inputs of the hosted plug-ins.
Plug-ins
• Besides the channel strip module, Cubase Artist 7 now shows the regular plug-in version of Vintage Compressor.
• Besides the channel strip modules, Cubase Elements 7 now shows the regular plug-in versions of Envelope Shaper, Gate, Maximizer and Vintage Compressor.
• Multiband Compressor no longer causes inaccurate audio if very short audio events are processed.
• The "Live" button state of Multiband Compressor is now restored correctly when opening a project.
• Opening a project created in a previous Cubase version and using bridged VST 2 plug-ins now works without issues.
Audio
• The Offline Process History now displays plug-in names correctly.
VST Expressions & Score
• VST Expression map symbols are now shown as expected.
• It is now possible to scroll through long VST Expression Maps.
• Printing a score under OS X now works as expected.

Hello,

Yes, as it was ready why keep you waiting ;)

Hopefully I'll be at a point where I can install the update tonight. I have a list of 10 or 12 things I'm really interested to test. Always fun to see how many of the fixes actually fix the problem. A couple look more like band-aids on broken legs. But, we'll see.

Nice... will test it now ;)

...

The one-click opening of plug-ins is nice. Disabling of a plug-in (I think it was alt+click in some earlier versions) is not coming back?

Post

Frank, thanks for being the guinea pig.

Can you maybe post some screenshots about the insert handling? And also check if "grouping" of channels in the mix console was simplified again?


I don't have hopes for the ASIO improvements, but... whatever.

Working nicely here. Mixer is better now, no more fun house sizes. Inserts handle better too with the one click. The mixer seems to open with one button press most times now too. Thanks SB, I was upset with c7 but now it's been fixed up a lot it's much nicer to use.

Hmmm, The installer I can find on the Steinberg site is for the full version.
Might be because it's not October yet ;-);-)

See above. Apparently I should read things all the way through. Thanks.

Will give this a try tonight.

Nice update (+1 for one click to open plugin!!)

BUT:

- Steinberg haven't fixed Sends plugin names in the mixer. Bad shortenings of long names...

- Also, and this is VERY irritating, the "invisible-until-mouse-over" buttons to Enable or Disable a Insert plugin. PLEASE MAKE THE BUTTON VISIBLE AGAIN. Depending on where your mouse pointer came from, it shows different things when hovering (... it shows the wrong channels "Select Plugin" in the same spot)

Post

Is the power on/off and plugin select button still to the sides of the insert?
