Cool.
Unfortunately, the list of bugs doesn't encourage installing at this point...

Changes Cubase SX 2.0.2 to Cubase SX 2.2.0

New features:

- Support for Mackie Control and Mackie Control XT units in Cubase SX 2.x and Nuendo 2.x: The support covers the extension of the Mackie Control system with Mackie Control XT devices to the "left side". All faders and encoder/displays are combined into one continuous surface. When the encoder section is used to display the data for one channel (channel strip mode, or for plugins), the parameters are presented over the encoder section of all devices from left to right. Fader bank navigation and encoder section assignment is controlled by the Mackie Control unit. For each Mackie Control and Mackie Control XT a new device needs to be added in the Device Setup. For each device select the appropriate MIDI ports. The top most device in the device list represents the right most channels, the bottom most device in the list represents the left most channels. Please make sure that the used MIDI ports are deactivated in the "All MIDI Inputs" device.

- Generic Remote: Upon import of a v1.x XML remote description file an automatic conversion to the new format happens. This conversion will provide access to most of the "missing" parameter. For a VST Mixer Channel the following parameter are supported for the conversion and for the Generic Remote setup. Volume, Mute, Solo, Select, Write, Read, Record Enable, Monitoring Pan: Left/Right und Front/Rear EQ's: Bypass, On, Freq, Gain, Q Sends: On, Pre/Post, Volume Inserts: On, Bypass, Edit, and the appropriate plugin parameter, when a Plugin is loaded

- In DirectMusic Setup the option "Use System Time" is present now. Use this option if following problem occurs: recorded MIDI notes get placed too early on the MIDI track.

New plugins:

- Monologue – Monophonic Analog Modeling Synthesizer: Monologue is a monophonic analog synthesizer based on physical modeling technology. It offers full, rich and colorful sounds without putting a lot of load on your computers CPU. Monologue the perfect tool for bass, lead and sequenced sounds.

- Embracer – Surround Pad Synthesizer: Embracer is a simple but powerful polyphonic synthesizer designed entirely for producing pads and accompaniment sounds. With its easy-to-use envelope and tone controls, it allows you to get the sounds you need fast instead of searching through thousands of presets. However, the most powerful feature of Embracer is its surround output. With a single switch, you can turn the instrument from stereo to surround and the width control allows you to spread your pad sound anywhere from mono to stereo to full 360° surround. The unique “eye” controller gives you an exact idea of how the sound will be placed in a mix. If you’ve never worked with a surround system before, now is the time start exploring these possibilities.

- Tonic – Analog Modeling Filter: Tonic is a versatile and powerful analog modeling filter plugin based on the filter design of the Monologue monophonic synthesizer. Its variable characteristics plus the powerful modulation functions make it an excellent choice for every type of current music style. Designed to be more a creative tool rather than a tool to fix audio problems, it can add color and punch to your tracks while being light on CPU usage.

Fixes:

- Recording on many audio tracks simultaneously using the Punch In / Punch Out at locators leads to inaccurate file lengths - this bug has been fixed now

- VSTi channels appearing at wrong places in the mixer and arrangement at seemingly random occasions, sometimes even disappearing altogether or being converted into a kind of shadow tracks, grayed out tracks that are not routed to anything anymore, can be deleted but can’t be tweaked and are basically useless. This may happen if a VSTi is inserted by skipping slots and if a VSTi is removed although it is not at the endmost position of all active instruments - This has been fixed now

- VST Instruments connected via VST System link: VST System link does not allow midi note auditioning from an MIDI editor: Any note selected within an editor will drone. It appears note off is not being issued. - fixed

- VST Instruments: In cases where multiple instances of the same plugin are present and the order of the plugins is being altered (e.g. by removing an instance from a lower slot number), problems can occur on loading the project: - wrong assignment of the VST Instruments - no connection to the automation. These problems have been fixed.

- Generic Remote: If all entries are deleted and an other Remote-Setup is loaded, Nuendo/SX/SL may crash - this bug has been fixed now

- Occasional crossfade crackling – fixed

There is an official announcement on their forum though .

What, you don't believe me

I went to the Pinnacle link and in the SX2.2 folder there is a list of known bugs...

scary

unless the bugs listed have been fixed?

Seriously! The list of bugs is like 4 pages long! What kind of an update is this?! Hopefully Steinberg will pull it's head out of it's ass--I'm not updating my host for 3 new vsti's when it's going to add 47 bugs to it as well! And 47 is for PC--there's more if you use a Mac! And it's not like all of them are minor bugs. Granted a lot of them are for the most part, but c'mon--"Issue: Automation is read incorrectly. Solution: Change ASIO....buffer size." Oh, is that so? What if it's already at it's fastest possible speed? After I do that, (assuming I can lower the buffer size), then what am I to do about this one: "Issue: Very high track delays on MIDI tracks may result in bad MIDI timing. Solution: Don't use high MIDI track delays if possible." Well, if I had to change the buffer size just to get automation to read properly, what the hell am I supposed to do if this then goes wrong? "Issue: VST Instrument Freeze claims 'Not enough disk space' although the disk is not full. Solution: Reduce the project length." Hell, while I'm at it, if I don't make any projects, then I'll never run into any bugs! Brilliant idea!

I appreciate the effort, but c'mon, 3 new vsti's and hardware support (what if your hardware was working fine in the first place?) in exchange for a whole mess of bugs and mindfucks to deal with? Yeah RIGHT!

holy shit.. i just read the bugs.

some of those are serious to my work flow! WTF YOU SUMBITCHES..

i'm buying logic 6 today

None of the bugs affect me, and I love the new synths

Steinberg is shooting itself in the foot. Don't they have a clue about marketing? That bug list is absurd.

prob: nothing records in Cubase
answ: record on a casette tape instead

prob: midi timing is off
answ: dynamically adjust your track's tempo to compensate for timing ussues
