Developed form the ground up by German music software and hardware company Steinberg, this popular tool was originally released decades ago for Mac, Windows, and Atari computers as a lightweight MIDI sequencer, whose capabilities quickly expanded to include every aspect of music production.
Today, several decades after its original release, this powerful app is home to a Virtual Studio Technology (VST) service that allows integration of versatile 3rd party plugins into the music creation and mastering process, advanced automation tools, a full “control room” dashboard, support for a large number of audio tracks, and much more.
This award-winning app can today be used in three distinct versions, with new users being able to test it via a generous trial version.
Main Features
- Industry-leading DAW platform – Access a comprehensive set of tools for music composition, recording, mixing, and editing.
- Advanced MIDI Editing – Take full control over MIDI instruments.
- Dolby Atmos support – Master object-based spatial audio projects for the most lifelike sound reproduction formats.
- Powerful Control Room – Oversee every aspect of music production and complex audio hardware setups from inside one versatile dashboard.
- Advanced Scoring and Notation Features – Accelerate daily workflows for music, film, and orchestral arrangements.
- Extensive 3rd party Plugin Support – Dramatically expand capabilities of this DAW platform with external addons for management of music and hardware.
- Fully Compatible with Yamaha hardware – Unlock the full potential of Yamaha audio hardware and upgrade their core capabilities at a discount.
- Flexible Pricing Options – Access powerful audio management tools via three distinct tiers of use.
To install Cubase Pro on any modern or legacy Mac computer, users simply must download and run an automated installer from the official website or secure FileHorse server. Even though it packs incredible audio management options, this installer is not that big in size, enabling users of all technical levels to quickly deploy it on their Mac computers.
In addition to this app, users also need to make sure that the Steinberg Activation Manager, Steinberg Library Manager, and Steinberg MediaBay are installed or updated.
The app is optimized for both Intel-based Mac processors and newer Apple Silicon hardware.
How to Use
Once fully installed and activated (either via a premium license or temporary Trial license), users can start accessing a wide range of tools and features for music production inside a modular and stylish main dashboard.
This includes a wide variety of MIDI editing, quantization, automation, voice recording, orchestral management, and other tools that can be used in both home, school, work, and freelance projects. The dashboard also promotes the use of a MixConsole, which offers customizable channel strips and advanced routing options for straightforward and optimized control over all loaded audio tracks.
Users who are struggling to manage a large number of audio hardware accessories and complicated audio projects can simplify their real-time monitoring via a powerful and flexible Control Room dashboard.
User Interface
This feature-rich DAW platform has a highly customizable workspace that allows users to easily arrange the different windows and panels to suit their workflow needs.
