I'm late to the thread, and interested in the original topic - is
something happening to CuBase?

Overpriced it may be, but at least it works, and more impotrantly,
provides a driver model to deliver the real-time performance that one
needs when playing back recorded tracks and dubbing down new ones.

MS has been asleep at the wheel here. They wave "home theater", allow
media pimps to ram DRM crap into the works, and they wave "Movie
Maker", but they have done NOTHING to facilitate home audio multitrack
recording. It smells like "keep 'em in their place" collusion with
the record industry, I have to say.

Really, if the platform is fast enough to do home video recording and
editing, then it's fast enough to do multi-track audio recording.
Does MS really think this is something that few ppl want to do?
