Strum27,
Great DAW .. with room to improve
I’ve tried a couple different DAWs on my iPad Air2 before switching to Cubasis2, and I’m happy I switched. Since I have a good amount of experience with recording apps I have found Cubasis2 to be well laid out and intuitive in design. But I do have a couple points for improvement: 1) no on screen level meter when recording ( when recording there’s just a swirling symbol, I have to do a test recording, stop and check to see how high my levels are), 2) the undo button directly above track one, (kinda picky, but how many times I’ve hit that accidentally) 3) Using a year old midi guitar app and having issues with it being available in the track Inter App Audio Input prefs section; received this response from the developer “We’re aware that Cubasis’s handling of IAA is somewhat cumbersome. Garageband’s handling of IAA feels totally different and mostly better imho, so there is room for improvement there on Steinberg’s side.”
Just passing that along .. Bottom line I like the results when I use Cubasis 2, and am looking forward to future updates.

iamnotnewhereami,
Audio editing stopped working
When I hilite a piece of audio and it opens up the editing bay the problem starts. The little triangles won’t move from the beginning and end so any changes I want to make apply to the whole piece. I can’t trim any specific parts, I can only fade in or out the whole audio clip. I can move the little triangles on the skinny bar above that that allows me to loom in on the audio but the other triangles won’t move anymore. All the other functionality works but I can only apply it to the whole part. So, unless I’m normalizing it’s pretty much useless.
..and I’m using Cubasis 2 instead of 3 that I bought for $50 bucks because 3 crashes all the time, usually within the first five minutes of any project, even simple ones with like 3 or 4 audio tracks and a few midi tracks that are all syncopated so not stressing the iPad…Meanwhile version 2 used to do fine with much bigger projects. I’m running a 1st gen iPad Pro 12.9 inch, the last one with the audio jack (btw special considerations for the iPads with the jack would make a lot of people happy)
Please help with this audio problem, I’ve bought some in app purchases so it would be a shame to lose close to $100 just off you guys. If 3 crashes and I can’t edit audio in 2, it’s some alternative like BeatMaker 2or3 which work fine. And if you sort this out maybe you can help me to export projects to Cubase. I picked Cubase because compatibility. The iPad was my gateway to music production.

The Most Stable Music App in the AppStore
I purchased Cubasis and Auria at the same time. Before Auria was known as Auria pro. I was making music on the iPad since the first beat maker app in 2007. I have to say that Cubasis is the most stable app there is of all the music apps in the App Store that I have and I have hundreds of dollars worth. I love the power combined with the simplicity that this app offers along with its flexibility to use IAA and AUs. But, all that means nothing without reliability. Which is what this app has when I save a project it is saved. When I put it in a zip file off load it to Dropbox or store it in an external drive erase it then reload it another day it is there!!!! So many other apps I have lost projects not Cubasis now even if I create in another app I export the stems to Cubasis for mixing and saving I don’t trust any other app for saving my projects.
If Cubasis had a sampler section like Beatmaker 3, if they get more Waves plug ins and get rid of their channel strip plug in and eq plug in taking up 2 slots, better levels meter, and the ability to do punch in recordings that record over audio the moment you hit record (the last one is not a biggie if you re-record until you get it right but if you love doing punch ins it’s a biggie). You will no longer need anything else but Cubasis hands down I promise you that!!!!!

Next logical step up from Garageband
Have been trying out a couple apps in recent weeks in an effort to expand my mobile recording skills beyond iOS Garageband and this is the app I’ve decided to start learning and using. I tried n-Tracks Studio 9 and liked their interface but that app sounded terrible when recording audio tracks. I’ve actually had this app on my iPad a good while but couldn’t seem to quit messing with Garageband, so after the disappointing results with n-Tracks, I decided to give Cubasis another try and it sounds great. Garageband has SO many bad-sounding and useless virtual instruments (I still think the Alchemy Synth sounds were MUCH better before Apple bought them) and Cubasis’ virtual offerings seem to be much more impressive from the ones I’ve tried so far. And it records audio tracks beautifully. 4 stars for now until I’ve had more time kicking the tires with it, but I’m looking forward to doing a lot of recording with this.
Lyrically gifted,
COOLEST DAW EVER
This is my first impression, I’ll probably leave another review in a few months, but first impressions: Awesome! If you are used to using GarageBand but want MORE capability, this will be a great transition. It has nice factory instruments already included, great fx, automation controls. Even the effects that you have to pay for are cheap too like the waves plugins for example and waves plugins are great and WORTH IT. This app is great for midi composing and audio recording and mixing. I also want to note that for people who don’t learn daws fast, that this is very easy to use and it’s very practical. The only thing that some people might need and that it doesn’t have are Mixer buses but I think they will add that eventually. Other than that, great app! Reminds me of Logic Pro, reaper or pro tools for iOS. I don’t see why one couldn’t finish a whole song from start to finish in it really. Edit: It seems that you can only add 5 effects to a track, if we could get at least double that, that would be great too.

I’ve been using Cubasis/Cubase to too long now to not have left a review until now, it wasn’t until more than a handful of ppl started to ask me to start doing tutorials for cubasis that I really started to think how powerful it really is for an iOS device, I have been making music strictly on the iPad since 2011 so I’ve seen how the iOS music scene has developed over the years rather then just stumbling upon it now so I guess the wow, shock and awe has faded a lil and with these music apps doing updates here and there sometimes it would be more feasible to work with one specific daw because it has feature another doesn’t at the moment but cubase/cubasis has never let me down, the workflow is so smooth and proficient that it leaves more room for creativity and time and the sounds that come with it are some of the most lushes sounds that I’ve heard from any music app I’m a Beatmaker3/Reasons kind of guy but cubase/cubasis will always have a special place with me
Shrikke,
This is what I’ve been looking for!
I’ve been struggling with Auria for the last few years as it becomes buggier and buggier and destroys more and more of my work.
Cubasis solved all of that. First up is the interface which is very intuitive. I use midi and synthesizers almost exclusively and it’s so easy to add an instrument from my very long list of ios instruments and it just works, every time. Auria often crashes when working with linked synths.
The media explorer is so simple and makes moving sounds around and importing midi files simple. The midi editor is also simple and powerful, no easy task but Steinberg pulls it off.
And then there’s stability. I don’t care how many features a DAW has, if it crashes it is less than useful to me. Cubasis has never crashed on me.
And finally, one nice perk that I didn’t expect is that the ‘undo’ function persists through sessions. In Auria, once you close the sessions there is no going back. Being able to ‘undo’ across sessions is extremely useful.
So if you’re a hobbiest or amateur musician, this is the DAW/sequencer I would recommend. You’ll be up and running and making music in no time without having to take a course in sound engineering before you record your first track.
The one feature missing is a tempo track, just to warn you after this glowing review. It’s not perfect. Yet.
Thank you to the developers for such an awesome product and for making music production fun again!

Shades 4C,
Almost perfect
Simple but powerful.
I understand it wasn’t designed to be used in the studio, although it is absolutely capable of.
MY ONLY REQUEST is that I’d love to see some kind of MIDI control protocol integrated! Mackie HUI or even just a MMC and MTC M@ster/Sl@ve would put it in a different league, enabling users to connect it with pro control hardware.
The touch screen is absolutely awesome when after a studio session you are fine tuning mixes in your sofa using headphones, but for serious work, one can’t just fumble around those tiny icons, need real faders and transport controls, at least. Like Auria, which works like a charm in that regard. Except, it’s too complicated, and with outboard MIDI it has a p@inful l@tency, Cubasis is waaaay tighter.
Cubasis never crashes, seems to be just rock solid and much more reliable than anything else on the i platform.
Of course, I never used it with Audiobus, that stuff is only good if you use apps only an no hardware. I don’t even use the MIDI sequencing, instead I do it all on an Ak@i MPCX, which is then controls a couple of an@loge and a couple of digital hardware synts and an e drum set, so I use it practically as a 21 century reel to reel, rather. 😀
Please tell me you guys are working on something like that!
I hate computers so much, and an iPad Pro with Cubasis is so fully capable that its actually scary.

This is a 5 star app for learning how to make your own music but it’s missing a several things.... the easiest thing you devs can fix is the sustain wheel. Make that an internal effect because it doesn’t carry over when recording. It makes piano and guitar sound robotic and the transition from one note to another extremely harsh (I want my guitar rifts to flow not sound choppy)! Another easy one is drawing on your sound to make it gradually louder. Please make it possible to do that with left and right speaker input, I want to make a binaural beat. Also the devs (developers) should allow you to cut and chop your own melodies and make it possible to create your own “instrument” by putting your chopped up melody on pads. I know you guys update constantly! Also isn’t there more than just attack and release? Anyways great for learning! (I bought all in app purchases and I would say don’t get the classic machines unless you’re an old school fellow but the effects are f*$#ing worth it) I’m making some sick percussion and I might put it on sound cloud for funsies.
Blackbery-12,
Why no option to upgrade from the previous version?
Considering projects won’t transfer without the user connecting an iPad to a computer, then coping projects to said computer, and copy them back to the new app’s file using iTunes or some cloud storage. It’s a major hassle, it also means that you probably won’t delete your previous projects from Cubasis until you then open them and the ver3. Which means lots of extra storage is needed to accomplish this procedure. Moreover, you’ll need to buy all the effects bought in Cubasis ver2 again for ver3. Some of these effects were just released six months ago. I have repeatedly supported app developer that provide paid updates while not supporting developers that don’t. I have been using Cubase for 15 years, yet because the last two years on my Mac I’ve have issues with their copy protection slowing down productivity and now I can’t use my iPad as a sketchbook without transferring everything and hopping it all works, I think I’ll skip any more options to use their products.
