When it comes to producing music at home, it’s fine to have fancy condenser microphones and space-age audio interfaces, but if you don’t have a good quality DAW, then those things are quickly rendered useless. So, with that in mind, if you find yourself without an easy-to-navigate and dependable digital audio workstation, you are in luck, as Thomann has you covered with 40% off Cubase 12 – plus free plugins!

Cubase has long been an industry staple, with many music makers, producers and recording engineers opting for Steinberg’s famous software to create hit records. Being released only a matter of months ago - April to be exact - this new version of Cubase has been updated with modern features, and in our opinion, it’s better than ever - we are just happy to see the back of the dreaded eLicenser hardware dongle!

I'm a Senior Deals Writer at MusicRadar, and I'm responsible for writing and maintaining buyer's guides on the site - but that's not all I do. As part of my role, I also scour the internet for the best deals I can find on gear and get hands-on with the products for reviews. My gear reviews have also been published in prominent publications, including Total Guitar and Future Music magazines, as well as Guitar World.


I have a massive passion for anything that makes a sound, particularly guitars, pianos, and recording equipment. In a previous life, I worked in music retail, giving advice on all aspects of music creation and selling everything from digital pianos to electric guitars, entire PA systems, and ukuleles. I'm also a fully qualified sound engineer who holds a first-class Bachelor's degree in Creative Sound Production from the University of Abertay and I have plenty of experience working in various venues around Scotland.
