In earlier posts, I've mentioned that I use an old version of Cubase (VST32 v5) and that it runs beautifully on 98SE. Now, I will keep this set-up for as long as the mother boards in the machines I use keep processing or until the software no longer loads, but gradually I have to admit that I need an upgrade; a second machine, even.
A few years back, my friend got SX. It looked all shiny and new, but I couldn't navigate my way round it very quickly, if at all, so I retreated, shell-shocked, into VST 5 again. There, I've remained ever since.
I've been looking briefly at what's available in Cubase now and I'm boggled:
Cubase SX
Cubase LE (got a copy free with some hardware I bought; haven't touched it)
Cubase SL.
Cubase SX3
Cubase 4
Cubase 5
Cubase Studio 4
Cubase Studio 5
Cubase DAW (I though they all offered that)
and prices can vary from £350 to £600
What's the big difference? Anybody got any opinions of why I should opt for any of these and why?
