It’s even possible to control each individual note in real time with a MIDI keyboard or by playing back notes from a MIDI track.
- Composer - With Cubase, composers get also a software notation program for creating simple score layouts which can then be printed out in high quality. Thanks to the integrated HALion ONE sample player, the user has hundreds of sounds ready at hand, including a slew of high-quality orchestral sounds played in different styles.
- Beat producer - Cubase Essential 5 includes a ton of tools for the creative beat producer. By using the Beat Designer step sequencer, the user can quickly and intuitively program individual drum patterns with dozens of beats in different music styles.
- Electronic music producer - Producers of all types of electronic music will instantly fall in love with the included exceptional rich-sounding Prologue virtual analog synthesizer and the stunning and numerous audio and MIDI effect processors available in Cubase Essential 5. Based on renowned synthesizer technology by VirSyn, Prologue’s multi-mode variable resonance filters, powerful modulation capabilities and excellent onboard effects make it the perfect choice for any type of synth sound. Finally, the HALion ONE sampler player perfectly rounds out the rich sound spectrum of Cubase Essential 5.
- Band - Be it in the rehearsal room or recording studio, recording bands with Cubase Essential 5 is as easy as it gets. Different recording modes and great tools help manage multiple takes. What’s more, with 64 audio tracks at the user’s disposal, recording, arranging and mixing large and comprehensive projects can be achieved with ease.
