Cubase is actually on my 1 list but im alittle bit unsure.. i got a deal on a used Cubase 6 that is used for 2-3 months.
Im not really sure if i should buy the used one for the half of the price, and count on that it will work. ( cause there is actually no guarantee that it works or that i should just buy a 100% new one.
Last time i looked at Cubase i didnt like that i couldnt zoom in by scrolling the scroll on the mouse and i defenetly didnt like that when i zoomed inn the waveform was pretty square'ish and not wave'ish so it was hard for me too find out f.ex the start of a sample. ( If you know what i mean )
BTW dont you register through USB or something?
As with anything new, you're gonna see things that don't look familiar to you. I'd take the fact that I could do an array of functions/things over gimmicks anyday.
More than likely that squarish view you're speaking of is no more than a window that opens within the program to display the wave info for editing purposes.
If all you intend to do is work with wave info, then anything out here could probably win you over with whatever gimmicks that's packed within it.
I'm not trying to bash you, just trying to point out the fact that you should look beyond surface features and really take a good look within at what the program has to offer. One feature I like that I don't know if other programs offer this is the "history" option.
In steinberg daws you can go back to whenever even after saving to undo something that didn't quite fit your plans.
But in the end, you have to learn & understand what differentiates these daws to make them standout from the rest of the crowd.
These daws are structered to fit an individuals skill set/level. You as a user have to decide which one will fit your needs.
