Caused by this I´ve tested GP4 - but only 14 days, no lower version for free and in the end not with the impression, it could be the right tool for me.Īs a long time Steinberg user (since 1989) I ´ve tested immediatly the little Version of VST Live. Sure, sometimes it is really tricky to find a mostly simple way and I was more than one time confused by the complexity. Cantabile is the product, with which you can setup all your planned environment. Hello to everyone here! I also share the opinion from Torsten about the really great work of Brad. Horses for courses, really - personally, I like Cantabile’s focus on functionality the GUI is definitely good enough for my taste, so I wouldn’t really need Brad spending too much time on re-working the GUI after all the time he’s already spend on the new GUIkit. And maybe it may be useful to point some of the beginners who don’t have the time or energy to really understand the complexity of Cantabile and get frustrated towards a more simple and intuitive solution. Maybe it’s good that Steinberg has brought a more entry-friendly product to the market to get more users excited about working “in the box” who can then later graduate to Cantabile when their needs become more complex and sophisticated - somewhat like Excel vs. So I find it amazing what a sophisticated and complex product and still relatively user-friendly experience he has built with Cantabile. Whilst I agree that Cantabile is definitely more “techy” than other pieces of software, let’s also acknowledge that companies like Presonus or Yamaha/Steinberg have far more resources they can throw at building a piece of software, so they can have a whole team only building the UX/GUI layer, with others specializing on the audio engine, a third team focusing on writing manuals and producing videos is essentially a one-man-show, dealing with everything from the audio core through the user interface to the manual and videos and user support. Here, in my opinion, Presonus Studio One is the measure of all things and with Studio One’s ‘ShowPage’ also on the way to plowing the same field as Cantabile Another point would be the clarity of the GUI and the speed of “drag and drop”. Racks and bindings, for example, should in my opinion only be tried once you have really mastered the rest. Perhaps Cantabile should offer something for the ‘Non-Nerd’ in the user interface and/or instructions as well, to make the learning curve a little more friendly.
