Cubase 15 is a comprehensive digital audio workstation for composing, recording, editing, and mixing. It suits beatmakers, songwriters, film producers, and sound engineers seeking a reliable environment for stereo and immersive Dolby Atmos projects. From initial ideas to final delivery, it centralizes instruments, effects, advanced audio and MIDI editing, automation, and export.Main Features
Writing and Composition
The modernized Expression Maps streamline orchestration by managing articulations directly within editors. The Melodic Pattern Sequencer generates expressive patterns with scales, step input, controlled randomness, and mono or poly modes.Production and Sound Design
AI stem separation speeds up remixing and sampling. UltraShaper combines transient shaping, auto-compensated compression, limiting, and sculpting EQ. PitchShifter transposes in real time over a range of +/- 24 semitones with formant control, saturation, and independent stereo channels.Mixing, Modulations, and Drums
Six new modulators (including Random Generator, Sample & Hold, Wavefold LFO) enrich sound movements. Groove Agent SE 6 offers a scalable interface, a new mixer, and enhanced effects, complemented by 40 Drum Machine kits and inspiring presets.Workflow and Integration
The new Hub, Quick Export, Track Controls, "last touched" automation, and universal plugin scaling accelerate production. DAWproject facilitates exchanges between Cubase, Cubasis, and other compatible hosts, while Score Editor, Sampler Track Hot Swap, and macOS support improve daily agility.Technical specifications
