Auria vs Cubasis 'recording quality''

Hey, ive seen some post on diff forums where people saying that Auria sounds better than cubasis. Im trying to figure out if there is any truth about that, and if it is so.
Is it the fabfilters? or the sound in general? Do recordings end up in a better quality?

Why i really wanna know is because im a Auria Fan myself, but in waiting for Auria Pro i do my stuff in cubasis and then export to auria. Is there any quality loss doing it this way? would it be better to just record direcly into Auria?

sorry for bad grammar, cheers

  • Since you have both, you could do a test and let us know what you find. I would imagine Auria having the upper hand in mixing due to its plugin capabilities; however, I doubt it records 1's and 0's any better. Though, again, test it out and let us know.

  • I dont think i have good enough speakers to finetune soundquality :/

    If the prospective difference is so subtle that your monitoring can't reproduce it, is it worth worrying about?

    FWIW, I have pretty good monitoring and I don't hear any difference.

  • I just want to get the best out of what i can do, and if there is even the cutest little diff between them. I wanna Know :)

  • Fair enough. Like I said, I hear no difference in a straight recording.

  • I really can't tell the difference through my monitors. If there is, I think other differentials would probably have more impact. I am 46 though and have a 46 year olds hearing.

    I truly believe that if such minuscule differences are going to make a difference to what you can produce, you should be looking at real high end recording throughout the chain and that is going to take you away from iPad recording and to really high end studio gear.

  • O and another thing to add is your room acoustics may make more difference to the quality of mixing and final production.

  • No. However, Auria's far superior for mixing if you're willing to spend the money on a couple of the FabFilters.

  • The audio tools and available filters are what give Auria the edge in audio processing for me.

  • I use Cubasis.

    What would be the first couple things that would be improved if I switched to AURIA?

    When is AURIA pro coming out?

    I was thinking of trying it out but guess I should wait for pro?

    Access to desktop-class plugins that are in a completely different league to what's available in Cubasis. Profesional grade compression, EQ, reverbs etc... (actually the reverbs are the weakest plugins in Auria, but still much better than the competition).

    You get quite a few included with the app on the Channel Strip, but many more are available via IAP. Getting the full collection is expensive though, although still much cheaper than the equivalent desktop versions.

    The iap's in auria i kinda expensive, but they are awesome! Just youtube fabfilter plugins :)

    I started with fabfilter PRO-Q now i got Almost all :) including sugar bytes tornado

    Should I wait for pro? Will it have MIDI?

  • There won't be any difference in the recording quality of both, they're just recording wav files, but as has been said auria will really shine on the mixing.

    I'd also suggest though that if you can't tell the difference in how something sounds through your speakers to invest your money there as well as learning how things sound rather than on apps.

    You don't need really expensive speakers to mix, although there are beautiful expensive speakers. Knowing the speakers you have is most important.

    As for slight differences in quality, with a good song no one will care about slight sound differences.

    You should wait for it yes, it will have midi, unlimited tracks and it will include the Fabfilter Twin 2 Synth and a sampler.

  • You should not wait for auria pro, learn auria now and add the pro when it comes out. It's already been said that pro will be an iap in auria and that pricing will be the same whether you buy it as pro or buy it and upgrade. When the upgrade comes out you'll already know how to run auria and will actually be able to use the pro features immediately. I think that's a good thing.

    THANK YOU

    Going to pick up some lumber and supplies along with ITUNES card!

  • I'd probably never buy the Fabfilter plugins (don't have them on desktop, either), so they don't matter to me in a comparison of Auria vs. Cubasis. What does matter is the channel strip style work flow you get in Auria, which is why I bought it. If Cubasis could get something like the channel settings window that Cubase 8 has, I wouldn't even think about Auria.

  • Digital sound is digital sound. I doubt any of the current recording apps, from cheapest on up, record any better than any of the others. As stated above, it's workflow and plugins that make a difference. The interface you use is likely to make way more of a difference, though even those are getting pretty even. It really does come down to talent, and ability to use the tools.

  • Spot with "Abilty to use tools" @rickwaugh. I've used some high end gear in my time, but rarely get the results that studio pros get!

    @Fruitbat1919, you bet. Some days I feel like I'm just trying to put the proverbial lipstick on the pig. :D

    Hmmm. I'd never say never on this one Mister. That's an awful lot muscle and glitter you're walking away from forever etc.

    One fab you really want is the PRO-Q
    The graphic waveform is so nice
    "I think there is a name for it but cant remember :) it just helped me a ton when i could acculy see what i was EQing.

    And if u are into the Psy stuff, the effects from sugar bytes "turnado and wow2 is awesome,

    But be warned! I started with the Pro-Q then its like u cant controll ur finger, you just have to have the next one and the next one :)

  • I'm not familiar w/Cubase, but at the tracking stage, Beatmaker2 & Auria sound alike. However, at the mix stage, Auria leaves BM2 in the dust...and it's mostly due to the Fabfilter plugs. The ProQ was my first and best buy to date. I use Saturn everywhere as well. Crazy. Just...crazy.

    ... You can check in cubasis if you want your recs. In 16- Or 24bit. Zero difference. Who knows? No matter.

  • I'd love to compare the two, but I don't own Cubasis. Would be a fun experiment, though I don't expect much difference, if any.
