excellent feature No, but to be honest, i more use the shortcut function to change between the tools. dynamic control bar - efficiency vs economy Don’t know by now what it is… Skylight interface - great docking/floating options, on/off switching and expand/collapse of different views with press of one key With C9.5 there are a lot of new docking options, but i work more with screensets. I have a 6 Core and use this one without a problem, as well a lot of my colleagues, they use 8 cores w/o a problem, i just want to be honest :) There could be one problem with CPUs more than 6 (physical) cores. and it's awesome Goal is to have a well performed DAW, Cubase uses CPU power very balanced. Plugin load balancing - that one is Sonar specific I believe. I think it is a advantage, so you know if there is a problem with a new plugin or a installed plugin you forgot ) Since C9 Cubase got Plugin Sentinel function, not well programmed plugins comes into a blacklist. VST is working great under Cubase, i use for example, all NAtive Instruments VSTis, VSL, Toontrack, XLN, IKM, AIR, GForce, SONiVox, UVI, Waves VSTis, Slate Digital, and Dimension Pro by Cakewalk : I use the following fx 3rd party plugins without a problem: 2C-Audio, Abbey Road Plugins (32 bit via jbridge), AIR, BlueCat, Cakewalk, Eiosis, Exponential Audio, Fabfilter, HOFA, IKM, iZotope, Lexicon, Magix, Melda, Nomad Factory, P&M, PSP, Slate Digital, Softube, SoundRadix, Soundtoys, TDL, Voxengo and Waves (Mercury) and maybe some more 😉 ability to switch off automatic VST scan during starup - very useful Cubase scans always at the start, but there is no problem. But these are working now with the new update. Resonably good VST handling - I have read that even Steinberg's (who invented VST right?) Cubase is having issues with many VSTs (and no 32bit VST in 64bit host at all AFAIK) whereas Sonar seem to work fine with most I've tried so far -> I cannot really confirm this, i know only one 3rd party developer that doesn't work for a long time, Plugin Alliance Plugins.
#CUBASE 9 PRO 32 BIT 32 BIT#
On the other hand, i do not use 32 Bit Plugins in new projects, it makes no sense for the future (stability and performance) Opening 32bit VST in 64bit Sonar - this is not required by Steinberg to do this, but i do this with jbridge, and this works great. Crickets from Steinberg support.Sonar alternative Cubase 9.5 Pro dear, here are the anwers for Chris.r In Detail, my answers for Cubase 9.5 Pro are marked bold: unlimited I/O, audio/MIDI tracks, busses and VSTs - 256 i/o’s, unlimited audio/instrument, midi tracks, 64 VST instruments (rack) slots But then I can’t figure out if that’s the auxiliary host crashing the whole computer or Cubase. I thought Cubase 9 Sentinel should isolate the dodgy ones, but it lets me load them from the bridged folder, and then crashes anyway. It appears to still be the problem with auxiliary host crashing the bridged VSTs. Support was always shaky with Steinberg, but this is really a new low. I’m feeling really let down by Steinberg, as I’ve written support about these problems over a week ago, and still no reply. I can add the video to a video track, but when I pull the totally normal 48Hz audio onto an audio track…spinning color wheel, nothing works, computer crashes. I imported a video track with it’s audio. For example, I’ve even created a new project to work in. What’s shocking is that when Cubase 9 crashes, it crashes the whole computer, nothing on the Finder level works.
#CUBASE 9 PRO 32 BIT MAC#
Working on a Mac Pro that’s only a year old, with 32 GB RAM and plenty of buffer. But I’m happily saving all the projects now, so thanks for the good advice, people.Īfter going through the older projects and weeding out all the dubious VSTs, I’m still having strange problems and crashes.
Strangely, the Sentinel didn’t do it’s job in Cubase 9, it loaded the old effects, which just immediately crashed the program. Then I could at least work in the project again, delete the old effects, and then open it in Cubase 9, and add the newer or bridged versions. When I hid those old effects out of the VST folder, I could start Cubase 8.5, and they were just absent.
I think the problem is that Cubase 8.5 & 9 loaded some of the old 32 bit unbridged effects, even though the bridged versions were available (I always took them from the JBrridge folder in the effects menu).
#CUBASE 9 PRO 32 BIT 64 BIT#
As long as Cubase 9 cannot see a 32 bit plugin and only the 64 bit bridged version it should be fine. Save under a new name and then open in C9. I would open an 8.5 project without playing the project and replace all the 32 bit instruments with the JBridged versions with the correct presets. Make sure that the 32 bit files/dlls are in a folder that is not on a Cubase 8.5 or 9 path but that the bridged dll’s are. What I would do is J Bridge all the 32 bit plugins if you have not already done so.
