Key Info
What’s new in Cubase Elements 12
A wide range of new features and workflow enhancements are included within Cubase Elements 12 such as deeper integration for MIDI controllers, as well new function and key commands to speed up the editing process. One of the most groundbreaking new features is the ability to instantly convert audio to MIDI chords by simply dragging your selected audio onto the Chord Track within Cubase. This tool is great for sampling, remixing and demoing ideas quickly and efficiently. The new ‘FX Modulator’ is perfect for experimenting with sounds and creating new tones from existing sounds via multi-effect modulation.
Award-winning 64-bit digital engine
Cubase Artist 12 features their own custom award-winning, double-precision 64-bit floating-point Steinberg audio engine. This provides you with resolutions up to 192 kHz, as well as 5.1 surround sound possibilities, versatile routing and automatic delay compensation. There's good reason why some of the world's leading producers and musicians choose Cubase to capture their fleeting moments of inspiration.
Three powerful virtual instruments and over 1,000 instrument sounds
Achieving great tones with virtual instruments has never been so easy. Cubase Elements 12 boasts three of the finest VSTs available on the market so you can create music just like the pros! Elements also features over 1,000 instrument sounds, providing you with a comprehensive sonic palette so you can create anything you can imagine!
Pro-grade effect suite for shaping your sound
Cubase Artist 12 comes with a wide variety of studio-grade effects so you can shape and sculpt your sound as you please. These plugins are as good as it gets, providing you with a selective range of compressors, equalizers, reverbs and delays to ensure you hit the ground running.
Say goodbye to the dongle!
Cubase 12 now features a new licensing system that replaces the Steinberg eLicenser. Ushering in a new era for licensing, this new system means you no longer need a physical copy protection device, providing even more freedom and lifting many restrictions from the past.
