I like it though and it isn’t like I’m going back to Cubase.įor those wondering why the naming and the confusion it is because there was a time that they were completely different products. I got it because I wanted the shiniest toy, and back when I got it (version 11) it supported 7.1 and Cubase didn’t. Who knows what the next version will bring?įor me there wasn’t much point in the upgrade. Version 12 is probably the closest I’ve ever seen them, feature wise, so the least you’d get from upgrading. It was one of the first DAWs to do Dolby Atmos and had the Atmos Renderer built in for version 11, Cubase didn’t get it until version 12, and Nuendo was doing higher order channel amounts for quite some time, whereas Cubase capped out at 5.1. It has a few more VST plugins, though nothing really to write home about, but mostly has support for some film and game features.Īlso, historically, it gets some high end stuff first. They have a pretty good list on their comparison page. You lose no features.Īs to are the additional features worth it? I dunno, depends on what you do. IT probably should be renamed to Cubase Ultimate. I like Cubase so far and I’m wondering if I upgrade to Nuendo, will I lose any Cubase features? Will Nuendo be like Cubase but with more features? How similar are they? Are there any editor/post people out there who have found the film oriented extras in Nuendo worthwhile?Īs stated, it is a strict superset of Cubase, meaning it includes all Cubase features.

Cubase upgrade 11 to 12
