Cubase Elements 15 Upgrade from Cubase AI.
Lifts Cubase AI to more tracks, instruments and side-chaining.
£45
Overview
Room to grow beyond the bundle.
Cubase Elements 15 Upgrade from Cubase AI is for owners of a Cubase AI 12–15 licence using Steinberg Licensing, the compact edition reserved for customers of selected Yamaha hardware. Compared with Cubase AI 15, Elements raises the audio, MIDI and instrument track limits, adds side-chaining and grows its instruments and libraries from three to seven. VariAudio, comping and ARA 2 remain Artist and Pro features. Activation needs a Steinberg account and an internet connection.
Highlights
Up to 48 audio, 64 MIDI and 24 instrument tracks
Side-chaining, which Cubase AI 15 does not offer
Sampler Track 2 and the Iconica Sketch library for HALion Sonic
Arranger Track for reordering and repeating song sections
Scale Assistant and audio-to-MIDI chord detection
