12-26-05 / 11:48 PM : Steinberg Studio Case II review (cjed) |
Audiofanzine publishes a review of Steinberg Studio Case II. As we ever knew, Cubase SE3 is ok for common use but suffers from the lack of Freeze funcion (that can be turned around by bouncing audio/instruments and importing the audio file back, as in Logic Express). It also lacks a new feature brought by SX3, the external effects management. |

The sounds demos are here, in the JMJ style. The new version is targeted to german language, and so are the demos (i liked this one, K-EriC-INeedYourInspiration). Finally we learn that Cantor has been used by Mike Oldfield...s |

We knew midi guitars and drums, but Yamaha also makes electric violins, cellos and contrabass. No midi here, it uses the same principle as electric guitar (piézo transductors). These instruments are fitted with line level and headphone audio outputs. SV 200 (violin)
