Cool Alan, I know Cubase, my dad works with it (he arranger for profession)
He uses Midi a lot for his project, and I wanna ask you to explain that people shouldn't be turned off if they prefer real instruments and don't like the sound of virtual libraries.
Cubase has a pretty cool Score-feature, so what he does is make his composition or arrangements, that might be for a full orchestra, in midi first, so he can get a rough idea of what it sounds like, and then print the score for the players.

I used to use Cubase a couple of years ago when I was doing my GCSEs (if you know what they are), and I didn't get along with it very well, I tend to use Sibelius so I can actually see it written as actual notes.
Thought I agree that using MIDI gives a more professional sound when working with instruments, unless you have a large amount of extremely good musician friends!

I really need to get me some midi software - I can see myself spending hours with it =)
