In short this paid app came with an instrument that doesn’t have Bluetooth, so when they reply to people that you need to connect the device it came with… the app only allows Bluetooth midi connection for that so it keeps itself in Demo mode. Cubase has better marketing people than developers because the amount of free or significantly less cost do the same work or better. ### 1/5 — Too Restrictive to test *2022-01-08, version 2.8.6* Can’t record anything. Too restrictive to test. Too bad. If it was any good I would gladly buy the full version. ### 5/5 — Great product !!! *2021-11-28, version 2.8.6* Easy to use , works flawlessly , the plugins are a nice add on ! I strongly recommend , well worth the 40 Bones !!! ### 1/5 — Non riesco a sbloccare la versione demo *2021-06-22, version 2.8.5* Ciao non riesco a capire a cosa vuole che lo connetto per sbloccare la versione demo che dura 30 minuti ### 3/5 — Can you fix this problem *2021-03-07, version 2.8.4* When I downloaded the app it was loading but it crashes and I never got the chance to using the app can you fix this problem. ### 1/5 — Not compatible with this iPad. *2020-12-24, version 2.8.4* Used to work fine before Cubasis LE3 was their new baby. ### 1/5 — Useless with Steinberg UR44C *2020-12-08, version 2.8.3* I downloaded this when I bought a Steinberg UR44C, 4 channel audio interface unit. Sadly the software only allows me to use 2 channels, most of the options are greyed out and others say this feature is only available when you upgrade. Nowhere when I bought the Steinberg did it say the software was basically a taster version so I feel this was misleading and useless for the purpose I bought it for. ### 5/5 — Got both 2 and 3 version for 4th and 6th ipads for 1/4 $ Black Friday price *2020-11-29, version 2.8.3* Simply upgraded to Full Feature Set of Cubasis2, added every InAppPurchases and transferred IAPs to LE3. After it upgraded LE3 with FullFeatureSet to Cubasis3 for 1/4 $ by BlackFriday price. Now have both 2+3 apps on old and new ipad with nowadays workflow. ### 1/5 — RIP OFF!! Not Eligible for Refund!! Don’t buy!! *2020-10-21, version 2.8.3* In order to try the Inter-App feature you have to buy the Full Feature Set, but I find out the Inter-App Routing feature does not work properly with my Amp Sim Apps. It’s distorted with clicks & pops. I used this APP for less then 1 hour trying to get it to work properly. Requested a refund and was denied. Now I’m stuck with this GARBAGE 🤬 Edit: Their reply is Misleading & False. The Inter-App feature is not included in the Demo. You HAVE to purchase the Full Feature Set in order to try the Inter-App feature. So if the Inter-App feature doesn’t work properly, you’re stuck with this App 😡 ### 1/5 — Total crap *2020-09-29, version 2.8.3* This one is a total crap. It’s just a clickbait released for the sake of advertising this really lame version of Cubase. Works for 30 minutes only, lmao... Don’t bother downloading it. ## Frequently asked questions about Cubasis LE 2 ### What is Cubasis LE?
