Lastly, you get streamlined export options for faster bouncing and an expanded DAWproject format for trouble-free session sharing across supported DAWs.
Unlock limitless creativity with new artistic tools
You’ll find unlimited creative inspiration lurking within Steinberg Cubase Pro 15. You can expand your artistic toolbox with six new Modulators, including Random Generator, Sample and Hold, Wavefold LFO, and more. The auto-compensating UltraShaper dynamics processor gives you extreme control over your sound using transient shaping, clip limiting, and EQ sculpting. PitchShifter equips you with real-time pitch shifting, bolstered by formant preservation, saturation modes, stereo unlinking, and a massive ±24 semitone range. Additionally, you can craft expressive melodic patterns with monophonic and polyphonic modes, step input, custom scales, shape generators, and a deep randomizer, all from within the Pattern Editor. Moreover, Writing Room Synths gives you a well-stocked arsenal of production-ready, authentic vintage synths with rich leads, warm basses, and dreamy pads, straight from the world’s finest songwriting rooms, from LA to Stockholm and beyond. On top of that, a fresh set of 40 modern drum kits delivers an endless array of ear-grabbing beats, able to dominate hip-hop, trap, and every flavor of EDM with equal confidence, and ready to drop straight into your latest arrangement.
