Easier stems
In most DAWs, printing stems is a repetitive, time-consuming task. With Cubase Pro 11 you'll do it all faster, with less risk of making mistakes and much more conveniently. Sync your export selection with the selection in your project.
Create and restore file format presets. Export the complete signal path, including Master bus effects, and reproduce your mix down to the smallest detail. With Cubase Pro 11 you can even collect your export jobs and export the whole queue at once while you go grab a coffee.
Sample. Slice. Move. Glide
You'll discover many new features in the Sampler Track in Cubase 11. The new slice mode chops up your loops so you can play them back with a single click. You now have two global LFOs to add movement and interest to your sounds. Choose between a vintage-style or high-fidelity sound with the sampler engine's new quality modes. Plus, the new mono legato glide is perfect for surfing 808 bass lines... and much more!
Your personal scale assistant
The Scale Assistant is an incredible addition to your arsenal of composing tools. Choose a scale in the Key Editor to follow it automatically, quantize a solo to that scale and play only the right notes live.
Change the view to see only the notes in the scale. The Scale Assistant can even analyze your MIDI recording and suggest the correct scale automatically. Now there's really no excuse for playing wrong notes!
Perfect pitch bends
Cubase 11 introduces a huge improvement to the Key Editor. You can now create ramps and curves in the CC and Pitchbend lanes just like automation. Set your pitch bend steps to semitones and you'll always play in tune.
Conveniently copy your CC edits to another MIDI track and quickly delete MIDI notes with a double-click
Incredibly precise dynamic EQ
There are many reasons why you should use dynamic EQ to improve your mix. And with Frequency 2, nothing stands in your way. You can activate dynamic mode on each of its eight bands. This way, the filter node depends on the input signal, allowing highly precise dynamic mixing. And, better still, in Cubase 11 you can apply sidechaining to each band using VST 3's multiple sidechain architecture.
Improved synchronization
Staying in sync with tempo changes or markers is crucial when composing any kind of music. Cubase 11 now offers the option to show Global Tracks in the Key Editor. This visual reference helps you compose quickly and creatively without having to leave the Key Editor.
Improve your EDM with Squasher
If you produce electronic music, you need Squasher! This dynamics tool combines upward and downward compression in up to three bands for highly flexible use in many situations. Use it to make your lead sounds cut clearly through the mix, tame aggressive bass lines and create subtle spatial reverb. Squasher is very easy to use and sounds incredible.
New features and fonts in the Score Editor
We have optimized the Score Editor with many additions and improvements. The new "Properties" tab gives you immediate access to the right options and settings for your notation. The "Overlapping note heads" option lets you edit notes conveniently in the Key Editor.
In addition to many workflow improvements, the Score Editor now also supports the SMuFL font format, so you can use Dorico's beautiful Bravura and Petaluma fonts in Cubase.
Imager
The multiband Imager is another superb tool that will help you get a better, cleaner mix. Widen or narrow the stereo width of your sound by placing audio tracks in the stereo field independently in up to four bands.
The individual display and correlation meters will help you achieve perfect panning
Visual editing with SpectraLayers One
SpectraLayers One is a compact version of the renowned visual audio editing tool. SpectraLayers One lets you visualize and clean up your audio with incredible results.
But that's not all. Thanks to the spectacular source separation engine, you can separate the vocal part from any kind of audio track. Want to remix your favorite song or create mash-ups? SpectraLayers One makes it easy.
SuperVision
SuperVision is a fully customizable multimeter audio analyzer for professional productions. Choose from different modules for level, spectrum, phase and waveform analysis, and create your own custom layout with up to nine module slots to get a highly accurate visual picture of your sound.
