    Softube Vol 1 on Sale Again

    in Deals

    Posted · Edited by Tomgu

    I saw a text after registering my account about a $10 "reward money" that one should receive after giving their information, but I don't see it in my account anywhere. Does anyone know how it should work? Or was the text just wrong, because I received a $5 sign up credit...

    The text was: "You’re one step from your $10 credit. Simply register below to set up your login information. We’ll automatically add $10 to your account. And hold on to your credentials — you’ll need to be logged in to use your $10 credit."

    They want $99 to upgrade my 10.5.  After I crossgraded to Nuendo (I kept my Cubase license) I was kind of thinking I would drop Cubase.  This feature lag between the two is very annoying.  I wish they would ship together.

    As Steinberg upgrades available from any retailers?

     

    Or if you wish to keep Cubase semi-up-to-date and save money:  Update it to 11 when they have their update sale.

    And then buy only the major-to-.5 version updates (optimally during sales), which are cheaper than the .5-to-major updates, and always wait until the next major (or the following major) version is released before registering, as they always give the latest version when you register it. And then again, buy the update to .5 version, and hold on to it.

    What's the best strategy to register 10.5 license in order to get v11 free? Before the new version release or now, within the grace period?

    I'm not sure how it works if you register the update serial within the  grace period. But, in my experience if you register an unregistered serial, they will give you the latest version of the software at the moment.

    So, if you currently have Cubase Pro 10, and you are holding  an update to 10.5 license: If you register it after v. 11 is released, you will get a version 11 license. But, if for some reason you register it after 11.5 is released, you will get 11.5. If you wait until v12 is released, you will get that.

    The important thing is that the update license works for the version you have registered. So, if one wants to save money but update Cubase occasionally, the most optimal way is to have the major version registered (7, 8, 9, 10, 11) and buy an Major to Major.5 update license before the Major+1 version is released (cheapest in their yearly sale) - and hold on to it. And register the update license after the next major version (or maybe skip one if you wish) is released, and then buy the update to .5 again.

    If you don't buy the Major to Major.5 update license before the Major+1 version is released, updating will cost much more - then you only have the option to buy the update from your owned version to the latest version, which costs more depending on how many version there are in between. Also note that the update from Major.5 to the Major+1 version costs a little bit more than Major to Major.5.

    Current prices:

    Update to Cubase Pro 10.5
    - from Cubase Pro 10: 59.99 €.
    - from Cubase Pro 9.5: 159.99 €
    - from Cubase Pros 7-9: 199.99 €
    - from Cubase Pro 4-6.5: 299.99 €

    So, if anyone has currently Cubase 10, but hasn't bought an update yet, it is cheapest to buy the update to Cubase 10.5 now, and make sure you register it within the grace period or after the release of v11 (or hold on to it, if you think you there's not much in v11 you need)

    I checked and you select your two free expansions when you buy Falcon.    So you need to know the ones you want before you check out.

    Thanks. They added the info about selecting the expansions later, at first only the Falcon's price was dropped.

    After your payment is received, they send you an email with a code for your 100 euro voucher code, which is good for two months.  You have to use it all at one time.

    I bought it, but I didn't receive the voucher code from AudioDeluxe, so I guess I can hold on with the registration to see, if they have good deals on Black Friday or not.  I've been thinking about upgrading my Vintage Vault in case there is a good deal when I have the 100 eur voucher. The upgrade is usually 299 eur, which is way too much.

    The expansions I chose were Lofi Dreams and Plurality. Can anyone recommend other expansions? Where does Falcon shine?

    I’m not sure of the terms and if it has been verified by NI, but some stores seem to have this info. ”For September only, register your Komplete 12 product with Native Instruments and qualify for a free update to the equivalent Komplete 13 version!” https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/product/180906332233008--native-instruments-komplete-12-ultimate-upgrade-komplete-8-12

    I like the Nembrinis too, have bought most of their amps within a  year, but I don’t like the fact that they're charging $10 for the updates, and so soon.  I don’t know if I will update any of them.
