Steinberg CMC-CH Channel Controller

The USB-powered CMC Channel Controller is the hardware equivalent of the eminently powerful Cubase channel section. 16 illuminated rubber buttons, one green-lit rotary encoder and a groundbreaking touch fader give you hands-on control over the major channel-related functions in Cubase, including record arm, solo/mute, pan and volume. Due to the adoption of Cubase's icons and color scheme, users will instantly feel at home with this lightweight and compact yet incredibly effective control unit.

The multi-coloured function buttons are an intuitive and time-saving alternative to using the computer mouse or the keyboard. Access VST instrument settings, solo and mute tracks, bypass EQs, sends and inserts or freeze a channel - all with the push of a button. With the Channel Select button you can browse easily through the entire Cubase mixer, while the rotary encoder provides direct access to the pan setting and gives you visual feedback via the integrated LED light. For even more convenience, eight buttons can hold a second, freely assignable function that is accessible by pressing the Shift button.

A visual and technical masterpiece, the high-resolution touch fader provides precise, tactile control over the volume level of a track. With a resolution of up to 1,024 steps and integrated LEDs this touch device truly stands apart from other control devices. Touch it, feel it and control your mix faster and more convenient than ever before.

The clearly structured layout, the seamless Cubase integration and technical innovations such as the touch fader make this portable USB-controller the perfect companion for any Cubase user - whether playing live, recording in the studio or just hanging out in the park.

Cubase Artist 7.5

Cubase Artist 7.5 has been produced to give musicians, producers and engineers the tools they need to get the job done at the highest possible level. New features have been added to streamline the process of making music. Not only does this make the process easier, but also quicker. Steinberg have created new features that allow you to manage your tracks and ideas in a much more intuitive way.

Features like track visibility mode allow you select what tracks you want to see. Large projects can get confusing when you have a high number of tracks. Track visibility can be used to streamline the arrange window and allow you to focus on the tracks remaining. It could be that you wish to hide all your MIDI tracks, or finalized versions you have recorded to audio. To do this enter the track visibility tab and de-select the white button next to each track you want to hide.

Instrument (t)rack 2.0 in Cubase Artist 7.5 has updated the way plugins are opened. When you add a VST to the VST rack, a corresponding track is also added to the project window and vice versa. Instrument tracks now have multiple outputs for any instrument which can be easily selected.

TrackVersions

TrackVersions has been designed to allow you to work on different versions of the same track, while keeping the same settings. You are now able to create, rename and manage parallel versions from inside the channel dropdown. This means you could for instance record multiple bass lines on the same channel and use the drop down to select the best one. Or you could be working on different vocal tracks and need to submit different versions. TrackVersion places alternative versions of recordings at hand where you need them. This process allows you to speed up your workflow and works with audio, MIDI, instruments, chord, tempo and signature tracks.

Groove Agent SE 4

Cubase Artist 7.5 now includes the new Groove Agent SE 4, the follow up to the hugely successful Groove Agent ONE. The great thing about the Groove Agent is its ease of use. It has been designed to resemble the MPC and maps for perfect integration. This allows you to start making beats quickly in a natural way and not having to feel like you been hindered by over complicated menus and processes. A Drum Machine is only as good as its sounds and these sounds have been designed and recorded by some of the most talented engineers available. This means you can go from laying down fat Hip Hop beats, then switch to groovy funk Beats with ease.
