I think the idea is to go down the splice route until you can afford to pay it off.

Then you get the full license and update etc

I would have liked to see a better/simpler way of layering synths; I am jealous of FL Studios layering (with the parent/children thing). Simple, quick, layer as many synths as you like.

Also, something like Ableton macros; where I can assign multiple parameters to one knob of a control surface.

Other than Cubase is just fine for me.
