represents a significant milestone in the evolution of Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs). Released around 2009, this version is widely remembered as a "workhorse" era for the software, bridging the gap between the early days of VST and the modern, feature-rich DAWs of today.

- Latency: Using ASIO 2.0, users regularly achieved 2ms-6ms round-trip on RME or M-Audio cards—something modern bloated DAWs struggle with.
- The "Cubase 5 Sound": A persistent myth in producer circles claims that Cubase 5 has a "warmer" summing bus than versions 6-13. While technically false (summing is mathematical), the lack of modern brickwall limiting in the master bus forced users to mix quieter, resulting in more dynamic masters.
- VST2 Domination: This was the last great version before Steinberg aggressively pushed VST3. Many legendary freeware plugins (CamelCrusher, TAL-NoiseMaker, Synth1) ran perfectly in v5.1.0.105, whereas they crashed or had GUI issues in Cubase 6.
