I really don care what os i use, as my DAW is only for music That’s just me … but maybe, just maybe, it’s not just me?

CUBASE WINDOWS XP WINDOWS 7

To put this another way: if the next version of Cubase drops support for Windows 7 and forces me to use Windows 8, then I will certainly be looking at Bitwig. The user base for Linux is no longer as small as some may think, and there are certainly not many on this forum, seeing as there isn’t yet a Linux version of any Steinberg product, but I believe there are plenty of people who would like to retain control over their own computers and as far as I can see, the only way to do that in years to come will be via open source operating systems.

But think about this: if you don’t want to go to Windows 8,9,“X”, or whatever, and you don’t want to end up in years to come having to buy each separate feature as an “app”, or having to be online to use the product you paid for, or having to sign up to some social networking site in order to log in, then you might want to give some thought to where personal computing is going.

CUBASE WINDOWS XP UPGRADE

This is not an “OS wars” discussion!Īs for Windows 7 as an upgrade for XP users, yes, I agree! That’s what I did. I’m not asking that Cubase be made available on Linux instead of Windows, just that it be offered as an additional option. Yes, I use Win7圆4, but does that preclude me from asking for the option to use Linux as well? If Cubase was Windows-only, and someone requested a Mac version, would the response then be to praise Windows more? The reason I thought long and hard before posting this as a feature request was that I knew it would not take long before people would begin passionately defending whatever OS they currently use, thereby completely missing the point. There’s also a way to use Reaper on Linux via WINE, and there are many audio applications already native to Linux such as Rosegarden and Ardour, but as I say, I just would like the option to run Cubase on Linux as well. If there was a Cubase for Linux, at least these customers would be retained, but I’m sure that at the moment many are looking to Bitwig as the alternative.īut back to your question … why don’t I use Bitwig? I don’t necessarily want to start comparisons, but I’ve been using Cubase for a long time and I don’t see any alternative out there that works as well as Cubase for me and my specific workflow. There are also cases where an XP computer is being “kept alive” only because of Cubase. At the moment, there are many people who are ditching Windows XP … and not all of them are going Microsoft.

CUBASE WINDOWS XP SOFTWARE

That’s the first point I was making, that with Bitwig, there’s now at least one other player who can see a commercial advantage in offering professional-quality audio software on Linux as well as on the other two major platforms.
