Have you worked in Cubase 5.1?
A friend in the next door studio is using it and i really envy him a lot of
what Cubase does.
What do you mean by flawed?

Cubase 5.1 is AMD optimized and it really gave my friend a lot better
performance.

???!!!
Try working on a drumgroove inside only EXS24 samplers in Logic.
Cubase's drumeditor really beats Logic in a creative way...

Huh!
What can't you do inside HALion that you can do inside EXS24?
You can copy/move/rename/edit/replace etc...

Don't get me wring...
I'm a die hard Logic user for years, but to me it seems like Cubase really
have gotten things working good.
Their new softsynths/plugins/ really kicks ass IMO.

And automating them is ten times better in Cubase.

And also:
They can save mixer setting.
(I have been doing drum tracks for 6 new songs today :)
