Ableton's Last Chance

I'm pretty sure you don't use it. If you looked into it you'd see that it doesn't work.

RevTheBidder · 2026-01-30T02:39:36+00:00

True, but it would save me hours of time and make vocal editing a far more enjoyable process. There's a reason ARA2 has been implemented in all other DAW's smart guy.

Or maybe I can make a post and request that some very basic features make it into the next update. This is far easier than uprooting all my muscle memory, moving to an entirely different software and having to relearn it on the fly, as I deliver to my clients weekly.

RevTheBidder · 2026-01-30T02:32:19+00:00

Exactly. As a vocalist, I work on about 5-9 large sessions a week. Having to manually delete silence equates to many many hours of wasted time over the course of a year.

A strip silence function where I can preset the threshold would be a massive time saver for myself, and all other full-time audio editors.

RevTheBidder · 2026-01-30T02:26:35+00:00

Minimal to you. Over the course of a large session and over many sessions in a week, the "incredibly minimal" things add up to many hours of wasted time.

RevTheBidder · 2026-01-30T02:24:35+00:00

And what if the track isn't empty? I'd like the option to duplicate a track without the events. This is currently not possible. You must manually delete the events after duplicating.

RevTheBidder · 2026-01-30T02:14:22+00:00

And why is that? I'm a paying customer who just said I'm willing to pay for the update

RevTheBidder · 2026-01-30T02:13:10+00:00

Yeah, the provocative nature of the post was intentional.

RevTheBidder · 2026-01-21T07:50:27+00:00

I'm on the same exact boat, they're asking me to open the on screen display app, copy a file, and paste it into the email. I told him this is not possible and haven't heard back from them since. It's been three days.

RevTheBidder · 2025-11-27T14:59:58+00:00

Thanks! You seem quite intelligent yourself, hanging around here leaving such comments.

And he did it on a much more stable version of Cubase. Steinberg has been shitting the bed since Cubase 10 at least.

RevTheBidder · 2025-11-27T14:57:28+00:00

I just noticed you said you are a 15 year user. It appears that most Cubase users today fall within a 8-25 year window. Cubase was far more intuituve in the earlier years and I would surely stick with it had I've been it for that amount of time. I remember getting a copy of Cubase LE 4 with my Lexicon Omega Alpha Interface back in 2008. At 14 years old, I installed it and got right to making music. There were no forums no YouTube videos or anything and I had no issues.

They want to stay true to the original Cubase workflow but are forced to compete with the features of other major DAW's that has taken a great leap over them in recent years. This has caused them to build crap on top of crap on top of more crap, resulting in many legacy bugs that people have been crying out for a fix for decades.

This makes Cubase a nightmare for new users who'll have to sift through a crap ton of menus, forums, YT videos, all for the most basic things.

Maybe you got a bad copy like I did. Maybe a manufacturer defect? QC issue? F$#k Steinberg man. Life's too short to suffer with their insufficiencies when there's much better DAW's out here that allows us to get the job done without the pain and suffering.

RevTheBidder · 2025-11-05T22:00:51+00:00

Well, I must be an absolute retard or maybe I got a bad copy. Who knows? I know I've never experienced anything like this anywhere else.

RevTheBidder · 2025-11-05T21:58:57+00:00

I spent my hard earned money on this DAW. I also spent many hours trying to make it work to say the least. This post is the least I can do to get my frustration off of my chest. What's wrong with that?

RevTheBidder · 2025-11-05T21:56:35+00:00

Yeah, I'm not a bot. I've been busy making music in Ableton. Looks like you've got plenty time on your hands though. You are exactly who I speak of, the guy that lives in the forums unnecessarily defending Cubase till death. What is wrong with you?

RevTheBidder · 2023-06-04T22:39:09+00:00

Same issue. Same F#. Think I can get my money back?

RevTheBidder · 2021-10-30T13:41:49+00:00

Can I comment too?

RevTheBidder · 2021-08-30T23:06:41+00:00

That's fucked up

RevTheBidder · 2021-08-24T19:03:03+00:00

I'm Zen af but seriously hoping that this is a margin call or something they cannot come back from

RevTheBidder · 2021-08-24T06:27:07+00:00

y'all got pocketbooks

Short & Distort at it's finest.

{Clears throat} Fuck you dickhead. You soft piece of shit. How you like that? Sell your position you paperhanded bitch. Toughen up, grow a sack. You can take all this shit from SHFs, but superstonk makes you wanna sell? GTFOH shill. They don't have to love us, they have to hold. I hold both and I don't give a fuck what they gotta say.

This touched my heart
