Okee..of okay :D :

- When you've maximized your Project Window and you open something that's not (for example VST Performance,Mixer or VST Instruments) your Project Window will pop back to not maximized...often resulting in a size that won't allow you to see the handles or buttons to change the size...

- Everytime i open the Key Editor,it opens in the wrong range...if i have notes below C2 i 'don't see them...in Cubase 4 this didn't happen,it just opened the way you closed it (in the range where you were working before)...so everytime i open Key Editor i have to change the range,very annoying...

- When using Instrument Tracks and editing for example Midi Modifiers or Inserts,there is no way to open 'Edit VST Instrument' ...while with Midi Tracks there's always a button visible (in the info field on your left edit pane)...

- When using Midi tracks you have to click another 'edit' button for opening the track channel settings,in comparison to Audio or Instrument tracks...this often results in opening the Midi track settings when switching between channels....very annoying and also unusable when you work with the cc121 controller (the fader,pan and edit button control midi settings,not channel settings)...

- Some VST3 preset lists open straight across the opened plug-in,sometimes somewhere else on your screen...not too big a problem,but wouldn't it be easier if it always opened the same way ?

- Sometimes the audio routing from External FX change when you open another project...there are presets for everything,except that...so you have to go through your list and edit the inputs and outputs again...(and always check if things are working okay)...

- When zooming in (for example in the Audio Editor) there seems to be no logic plan behind it...the most logic thing imho would be to zoom in in the middle when nothing is selected,or zoom in on the selected range...or give users an option (preferences) to adjust it themselves...now it seems to always zoom in on the locator,which works very weird especially when you zoom in very precise (for example for detailed editing)...

- And talking about the Audio Editor : on lots of backgrounds (depends on the color) the 'Range selection' tool is hard to see...maybe it could be made a bit thicker,or be given a shadow/outline...i don't remember having problems with this in Cubase 4...

- When using the "Lane Display type" and then "Lanes fixed" the default always uses smaller size 'blocks' ? Is this the way it's supposed to work ? Because when you copy blocks underneath each other,there always seems to be space left (size halves everytime)...and maybe the lane settings could be in the pop-up when right-clicking the track ?

- Every time i open a project to open Cubase 5,the project window isn't active (Cubase flashes blue in Windows task bar)...i first have to click somewhere to be able to use it...this wasn't the case in Cubase 4 or older...

Als we het toch over bugs hebben.

'When you export your stereo mix to a file (16bit 44.1kHz) and try to overwrite the file you get an error which prevents the audio export.'


En laat ik voorop stellen dat ik een diepgrondige schijthekel heb aan bugtesten dus ik benijd je niet bam. :)

een paar bugs lijken opgelost te zijn...een paar anderen kun je om heen werken...dus de lijst wordt :


- When using Instrument Tracks and editing for example Midi Modifiers or Inserts,there is no way to open 'Edit VST Instrument' ...while with Midi Tracks there's always a button visible (in the info field on your left edit pane)...

- When using Midi tracks you have to click another 'edit' button for opening the track channel settings,in comparison to Audio or Instrument tracks...this often results in opening the Midi track settings when switching between channels....very annoying and also unusable when you work with the cc121 controller (the fader,pan and edit button control midi settings,not channel settings)...
