FEATURE WISH LIST FOR STEINBERG CUBASE SX
SMALL FEATURES:
the freeze button for vsti´s should be shown in the inspector
window
rearrangeable inpector bars (track parameter,inset effects,channel...)
to put the vsti bars at first on top. so we could see the insert
effects and the vsti mixer channel on one monitor at 1280x1024 screen
resolution if we klick on the selected midi track which is assigned to
a vsti
pool window should be able to set "always on top"
the matrix window should be able to set "always on top"
the device panel windows should be able to set "always on top"
midi matrix and vsti window should follow the selected midi track which
is assigned to a vsti
vsti mixer view should follow the selected midi track which is assigned
to a vsti
mixer should automaticly show only the really used vsti channels
midi remote control should only drive the really used vsti mixer
channels
midi extraction from hitpoints with drag and drop to the arrange page
mfx plugin with the feature to select a folder in which are midi
loops.these should be able to switch forward and backward with +-
buttons.the midi loop should be able to drag and drop to the arrange
page
mfx plugin with a adsr envelope which restarts at every note on midi
event.with this option we would be able to put more adsr envelopes to a
synth. fruityloops has a feature in the automatisation for this
the arrange page background should be able to colour almost black
vsti patch randomisation with adjustable intensity (like samplitude or
energy xt)
a piano roll under the vsti window should be able to show with a button
STATIC midi note randomisation in the matrix window each time the
"random button" was pressed, with intensity options for
velocity,pitch,position and number of midi notes
endless loop button (like in logic)
midi out should be showed in transport window, to show which controler
is sent when you screw a knob at the vsti. so we could set the right
controler for a external midi knob box
midi vsti´s should be able to insert like(or instead)the mfx
plugins (there are more good and working vsti midi plugins than mfx
plugs)
fxb banks should hold infinite programs (not only 128)and there should
be a editor for copy, delete and rename the programs
fxp programs should be able to store in a folder one by one and then
there should be +- buttons to load them forward backwards
the caps lock key should enable the querty keyboard to play midi notes
better implementation of mfx plugins (there are much mfx plugins which
dont work in cubase)
unessecary bright areas in the mixer should be erased (this would be
easier for the eyes) the nuendo gui doesnt has these bright areas in
the mixer and is much clearer and easier to look at
easy copy and paste patch scripts in (between) device maps (maybe
import function)
device maps should receive incoming midi messages
BIG FEATURES:
new track class: vsti track, so we could have the vsti automatisation
directly under the midi notes which drive the vsti. its so much time
consuming to put each automatisation track out of the folder and drag
them to the midi track if you have much vst instruments. also the right
vsti channel in the vsti mixer window would follow the selected midi
track which is assigned to a vsti
moveable insert fx.
mouse wheel support for ALL buttons faders and knobs (especially for
the included cubase plugins)
right click midi learn for all buttons faders and knobs
audio pitch to midi extraction.
melodyne like time stretch and pitch shift.
better effects with more options (especially the delay plugin)
all knobs of the included effects and synths should be able to drive
with midi controllers (they should be able to show as midi devices in
the inspector)
sidechains.
mpex 3 algorythm (mpex 3 is implemented also in sonar now)
