The Steinberg Cubase SX3 Upgrade takes music production to a new level by adding more than 70 new features including powerful Audio Warp, Realtime Timestretching, an intuitive Play Order Track, convenient Inplace Editing, and many new editing functions.

For the first time, a native music production system combines full-featured audio and MIDI recording and editing, virtual instruments and powerful audio mixing with the added flexibility of loop- and pattern-based arranging and mixing. Cubase SX3 supports Windows XP and Mac OS X and works with a multitude of audio interfaces. Add to that the seamless integration of external audio and MIDI hardware, and Cubase SX3 redefines music production technology.

Top-10 new features of Cubase SX3:

Audio Warp: Realtime Time Stretching and Pitch Shifting offer extensive new audio editing and processing capabilities, including ACID File support: loops automatically adopt a project's tempo; audio files can follow tempo changes in realtime.

Intuitive Play Order Track for pattern-based arranging adds a new level of creative music editing. Divide your song into sections, and then rearrange it on the fly. Compare alternative versions of your song and then convert them back into a linear form for mixdown and mastering.

New Inplace Editor supports ultrafast direct MIDI event editing from within the project page. Edit MIDI events in context with audio or video.

New MIDI Device Maps/Panels support direct access to external MIDI hardware with user-definable graphic editing panels. Import VST Mixer Maps or create your own editing panels, even for the Track Inspector or the mixer's channel strip.

User-definable Workspaces (window layouts) help organizing your desktop. Create and save a separate workspace for each step of the production process. Switch Workspaces on the fly, as if working on multiple computers or monitors.

Studio Connections Total Recall support (optional integration of Yamaha's Studio Manager 2). The first step into a new dimension of software/hardware integration. This modular editing system builds a powerful bridge between the virtual and physical studio. Opening a project can recall an entire studio setup within seconds.

External FX Plugins allow for direct integration of external hardware effects processors into the VST audio mixer. Use your favorite outboard gear just like plug-ins, including automatic delay compensation.

Extended Freeze function for virtual instruments and audio tracks with added flexibility and improved performance. Freeze virtual instruments with or without insert effects. Then automatically unload the instrument to free up RAM. Freeze audio tracks with insert effects to free up even more CPU performance.

New part-based Volume Envelopes for direct control of dynamics. Fix level problems on the fly without wasting automation tracks. Then move events with their volume envelopes.

User-definable Color Coding for tracks and VST mixer channels provides more clarity and better orientation, especially in complex projects.

This Cubase is amazing. If you are going to buy a Cubase product, by the SX 3. Its easy to use and learn, you can edit with amazing prcision, and it has all the effects you need built in, such as a drum machine. Anything that you want to do is "do able" in this program. If you need extra help, buy the tutorial videos.. they are very helpful.
