Steinberg Media Technologies, in conjunction with Yamaha Corporation of America, is pleased to announce Cubase SE1 VAP (Value Added Package), a special $149 entry level bundle for computer recording.

A complete cross-platform music production studio in a box, this new bundle includes Cubase SE for recording, processing and mixing your music and the Steinberg Virtual Instruments Collection based on Steinberg's popular professional VST instrument line. Included are HALion SE, The Grand SE, Groove Agent SE, Virtual Guitarist Electric Edition SE, and D'cota SE, providing a diverse palette of sounds for a wide variety of musical styles.

"People, especially entry level users and educators, are looking for complete packaged solutions," stated Athan Billias, Marketing Director for Technology Products at Yamaha.
