I don’t like the default GUI or the extreme customizability of it (in the same way I couldn’t care less that Android is 150% more customizable than iOS, I’m still an iPhone user because I feel comfortable in their ecosystem) but hey, it is what it is. I do not wish to turn this post into a “what makes other DAWs better than Cubase” discourse because that couldn’t be further from my intent (I already expressed that Cubase is my favored DAW) but definitely Steinberg could learn a thing or two about how other companies handle their update cycles and even business models.
