Using cubase to master is like going to the supermarket in a tank.
As long as the tank can hold groceries, I agree with you.

When I pretend master in Cubase, I forget about the multitracking, VST instruments, and about 90% of the other features in Cubase. All I really need is a quality channel strip with compression, eq, and limiting. (I'm not big on the 3D crap. It does weird things to phasing and mono comptability. I do my 3D effect when I mix with delays and such.).

I never really put much thought into how much A/Bing from the last mastered song to the current song goes into mastering. While watching Eric Conn at Independent Mastering it was very obvious that you would need a system / program where you could A/B from the last song to the next song.

I'm not really sure what tool would be ideal for that.
