Chord Pads for Harmonic Inspiration

Cubase Pro 12 features intelligent Chord Pads that suggest harmonic chord progressions to spark new musical ideas. Simply select a musical genre or style, and Chord Pads will display a range of chord sequences that can be dragged onto instrument or MIDI tracks. Chord Pads can follow the project tempo and time signature or be set to a defined tempo. Chord variations like triads, 7ths, and suspended chords provide more complex harmonic colors for your productions.

Next-Level Mixing with New Channel Strip Modules

The fully redesigned mixer in Cubase Pro 12 offers a collection of new channel strip modules for an unparalleled mixing experience. The Dynamic EQ module provides frequency-dependent compression, ideal for taming overly bright signals. Transient Shaper allows shaping the attack and sustain characteristics of tracks. Tube Compressor and Magneto III provide vintage compression flavors. The revamped mixer also provides direct access to channel strip settings, a mini-browser, and drag-and-drop functionality for a fast, flexible workflow.

Advanced Beat Making with Sampler Tracks

Cubase Pro 12 includes dedicated Sampler Tracks for advanced beat making. Drag and drop audio loops, samples, or any audio file onto Sampler Tracks to automatically match the project tempo. Apply quantization, auto-slicing, and beat grid adjustments with ease. Add insert effects like Amp Simulator, Bit Crusher, Ring Modulator, and more for unique sonic textures. Export your beats as MIDI, audio, or sampler instruments for use in other projects.
