One of the coolest things about Cubase SX is it's editor. You can do much,
very quickly and it's possible to easily mix by just fading tracks in and
out in the editor. Having said that, one of the coolest things about Paris
is the ability to assign tracks to groups and then fade them in and out in
inverse relation to each other. I'm still considering selling off most of my
SX rig and using the money for hardware FX. thing is, the UAD-1 plugins
really *are* awesome. Having lots of Pultecs and 1176's for drum tracks and
L-2A's for guitar and certain vocals along with the Fairchild for strapping
across a bass guitar is something I don't think I can ever live without now.
All in all, given the relative benefits of both programs vs the way I work
here, if Paris had PDC, I would not even be using SX at all except for midi.
;o)
