Just put dual boot on my PC to start experimenting with Win 11. 

Haven't had any issues so far, but I think the first release was mostly the eyecandy and not a lot of the back end 'optimization'.

Now it says changed the logo and image in the library browser.  Not exactly most essential release I've seen.

Do the use 1024 bit images? Why are the updates so large...

Is that equivalent to Pro version or is it a lite version?

It's quite light. It mostly does vocal  seperation

Apparently you can install Spectralayers 8 if you got Cubase Pro and it will automatically open it as Spectralayers 8 One.

I may put it on a VM just to have a look. But, yeah not planning to start using it on my production machine anytime soon.

And I haven't read much about any of the under the hood stuff which would mean a big improvement for audio production yet. 

Is there a Crossgrade path from the Spectralayers version included in Cubase Pro

Probably not a chance for native aggregate audio devices with low latency?

I've only used bitwig for about 15 minutes so far.  I set up my a49 as a generic controller with 8 knobs.  I can play notes and the knobs work, that is as far as I've gotten so far.  I don't see any Moss extensions.  I have the free 8 track version.

That probably works, issues are when you use in and output ports

I have an a49 and it is working in Bitwig.  I have seen this out of memory issue before in other DAWs, it usually means the midi driver is being used by another program.  Make sure you only add the a25 driver to bitwig, don't add the control a daw driver.

Are you using the Moss control Extensions?

I want to like Bitwig, I actually do lilke it from what I've gotten out of 8 track.

But I can't get my NI A25 to work. It keeps telling me it ran out of Memory when I try to turn on the device in Bitwig.

Anyone use an A series controller with Bitwig and gotten around it on Win 10?

Makes it a better deal than Bestservice, I guess.

FREE Upgrade to Bitwig 4 at Plugin Boutique...don't know if that applies to the others or not

https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/3-Studio-Tools/23-DAW/5520-Bitwig-Studio-3-FREE-Upgrade

Think it will be, unless they have to delay the release of BW4 and they will not release it until July 2022.

You get a year of updates when you buy Bitwig, seems it includes both point as full releases.

$249 if you have 8 track.   They are like the Waves of DAWs with their WUP.

Not completely sure... if you're happy with the program (v3 then v4 with the first bug fix releases) then buy the update when v5 is released.
Isn't that about the same price as any other DAW? A lot of DAWs just go silent on updates after the first half year until the next update.

Unless it's Reaper of course...

Next month seems to be MiniMoog month, wonder which one we'll get for free: IK's (again?), Arturia's or any other contender?

Will the deal be up at any of the resellers too?

Makes you wonder if they will do something for the subscribers apart from workshops based on the free sample packs they put out?

Bring back a full command line based OS. Forget this GUI BS.

Nah instead they make Linux UI part of the OS...

Will windows 11 run on 8g or 16g Apple M1 ?  sorry couldn’t resist.  Please don’t answer …hehe

Probably in VMWare after a while. 

More interesting will WSL3 allow to run Mac OS like Linux can run under Windows,

No....you have to compare version numbers...it's a crap app...

The app itself knows it too: there is a top section called 'Redeemed' and it's empty...

Stupid question: can I find somewhere in the app if a Program has been updated compared to what I have installed?

Just the DLA and none of the programs? Like XLN...

Love their stuff. But I'll probably wait for a bundle sale 😉
