Cubase AI

Cubase AI is ready to meet the demands of songwriting and production projects. Offering up to 32 audio tracks, up to 48 MIDI tracks to control external instruments, as well as up to 16 instrument tracks to control virtual instruments, Cubase AI has enough power to record as many as 16 audio channels simultaneously.
Stereo mixes can be recorded back to disk in either WAV or AIFF format. Exporting stereo mixes as MP3 is also possible.

The easy-to-use Key, Score and Drum Editors included in Cubase AI help to get the job done quickly without blocking the creative process when writing or producing a song. Cubase AI also includes support for Steinberg’s real-time audio time-stretching and pitch-shifting technology called AudioWarp, allowing audio files to be played at a tempo or in a key different from the original file without any offline processing. Cubase AI’s powerful audio editing functions include a state-of-the-art transient detection, which is particularly useful for slicing and manipulating drum or percussion loops. The Chord Track facilitates working with chords in a project context and enables transform and harmonize functions throughout the application while the Chords Pads allow an easy way to play chords or try out different arrangements.

The mixer section in Cubase AI offers everything musicians need to create professional-quality mixes, with sample-accurate timing and full plug-in latency compensation across the entire signal path. Boasting up to four insert effect slots and four effect sends and returns as well as eight group channels, this powerful virtual mixer offers a lot of flexibility. The four-band fully parametric EQ features exact control of any signal’s frequency response, and every knob or function can be automated.
