Actually, it seems I now have version 3.3. Although it is an overall improvement from NA1, there are two annoying issues: 1) the CPU uasage is now 20% (it used to be ~3-5%); and 2) I just lost ~3GB of disk space. I hope the former is due to some initial indexing of all my products and the latter is the result of temporary installation files (though CCleaner did not recover much of the lost space). Hmm.

I just installed NA2 and it definitely runs better than before! I particularly like the numerous ways in which you can filter your products.

Thanks for confirming. I actually had NA2 but uninstalled it because there were lots of problems. I'll try again. Cheers...

I'd be surprised, though pleased. It seems once a plugin becomes a resource hog, it stays that way forever. 😢

Just curious, was this update made available to anyone still using the old version of Native Acces (version 1)? I'm still using that one and don't see the version 6.50 Reaktor update. The latest one for me is 6.4.3 and I'm wondering if v6.50 is only available via the newer versions of Native Access.

I'm starting this new thread where we can post all the new Synthesizer V voicebanks since it's likely we'll be seeing quite a few releases as the platform grows in popularity. I'll start with Saros from Eclipsed Sounds. It's just a teaser, but they're the ones that produced Solaria, so I'm guessing this one will be good too.

No. I think you're right. https://forums.steinberg.net/t/cubase-13-any-word-on-new-update-cycle/834474/166

My guess is that it was more of the former.

Me too!

Me too. Does your copy work? After installation and activation mine neither receives MIDI input nor produces sound when I click on the GUI keyboard. I'm waiting to hear back from the support request I placed.

I always download before I post and did not have any problems.

I suspect they soon will change the status of V14 plugins to "Legacy;" especially when V15 is released. They're obviously hoping that the pain of manually installing/reinstalling our Legacy plugins will force us to buy a subscription. But if we do that, we have to maintain the subscription forever otherwise everything updated will revert back to their previous Legacy versions. This is manipulative given that the ability to quickly and easily install some earlier plugin versions already exists. They deliberately took away this functionality out of pure greed.

If it's true that updating from now on converts your perpetual license to a subscription, they need to give us a clear warning in Waves Central as opposed to burying this fact in legalease. I think I may just uninstall Waves Central to prevent any unfortunate accidents.

Not very informative...

Then again, given what Waves just did, there's incentive for them to hold-off the release of V15 until V14 WUP expires to induce us to subscribe to their new plan.

I just noticed the V14 plugin updates after updating Waves Central. I usually just apply all updates without worrying but now wonder if this will convert my perpertual licences to subscriptions. I was going to just update StudioRack (which I got for free), but when I selected that one for update, all the others with available updates were selected as well.

Element 2 is a very useful instrument. I also really like Codex and Flow Motion because they produce sounds that are quite distinct from many other synths.
