Best DAW ever. I switched from Logic some years ago I never regretted.
Very good MIDI handling, Media bay is very well implemented and a decent set of out of the box plugins.
And now Steinberg seems to listen tu its userbase too. Well done.

Cubase was an early girlfriend, then I fooled around with others but when life got serious, I married her.
I'm thrilled about the changes Steinberg has been introducing since 7.5.
Cubase has the best MIDI routing on the market and an amazing interface for mixing. It took a few updates and support tickets to get it rock solid but now my Cubase Artist 8 is a fortress. Thanks and keep it up Steinberg.

Is the product Cubase 6.5 available in Steinberg on line shop full version for price 250 eur (plus local tax), or you must add efects like halion sonic or halion symphonic orchestra for full version and the price is therefore almost 500 eur? Does anybody know?
Cubase is just the state of the art it presents in characteristic, because in functionality it are just a break in the trail for new products and your life is not something granted for Steinberg, take care is useless.
For Windows XP it are something compatible, but not something so integral like "Mac".
This message is something which really hurts my self interest, and have no turn back, just like our choices.
I started with Cubase v1 on the Atari (a long time ago). Over the years since I moved to the PC I've tried many other alternative DAWS and always end up coming back to Cubase as it always has an easier work flow and well implemented features that just work as you'd expect without fuss.
Currently using v7.5 on Win8.1 - 64-bit (4Ghz/32GB) problem free :)
Yup, me too. I have been using Cubase since before VST was around. I run it on a PC (Intel Xeon, 16GB, liquid cooled, Win 7 64-bit) and it runs as smoothly and flawlessly as I need. No application is bug free, but Steinberg releases regular patches, and also gives us a decent upgrade every year or so. I have tried others, just as SarahBellum said (great name btw), but I have never found a product that has made me want to switch.
I've been a Cubase user since 5 (so I'm a newbie compared to some of the commenters) but I switched to Cubase from Cakewalk (now Sonar) because of the workflow and clear signal paths. I've tried out other DAWs (Reaper, Cakewalk's later revs, Harrison MixBus, Ardour, PreSonus One) but Cubase is the one that feels most effective to me, and the support from Steinberg has always been complete.
Now with 8.5 version available, Cubase is more PRO than ever.
