So how many computers can you authorise with one license in the new Cubase 12 machine licensing system?

Like I've stated b4... they should just make max price for one plugin @ 30 usd (or lower) and call it a day... stop playing cats and mouse game ... the truth is once you got your favourite 25+ plugins, you will almost never need anything else to make any kind of amazing production... different flavours, sure but hardly ever an essential tool that you are so badly missing... unless you of course watch those YT videos and buy because you are in the "big boys toys" mode... that candy buying impulse isn't really worth more than 30 usd a bag, err I mean a pop!😊👍

Larry and I are in the same Facebook group and he's been prolifically posting on Facebook lately,  so I know he's okay.  I'm quite certain what occurred is that he was bothered by some of the interactions he had on a thread -- it wasn't really hardcore hostile or anything,  but it was a rebuke and it seems rather clear that it bothered him. I suspect he's just taking a break, which I think isn't a bad idea. Hopefully,  when he returns he'll see all of these posts and feel appreciated. 

@PavlovsCat Peter please send him a message via fb telling him that he has all our love and support no matter what his decision will be like. It would be cool that we somehow let him know, what an awesome person he is! To us here!

Thanks man!❤

Larsy you have my full support for whatever your decision and further steps might be. Love from Finlandia ❤

20.95 usd would be fair middle ground price for both sides imho

THANKS!!!

You're welcome!

@James Foxall

Drop the BASIC folder to the interface (after you've unzipped the 2.5 GB downloaded content and placed it to desired place on the HDD), that will authorise the content for use and figure out the path

These are the types of instruments I’m gravitating towards lately - things that are bringing new tools to the table and that let you create new sounds. 
 

I picked this up and look forward to playing with it. 

Right on James! Same here mate 🙂

The overview video is AMAZING.

@James Foxall... and demoing it even better, with own material it is mind blowing... Let's not call it a game changer, but rather a substantial STANDOUT!

Works great on the Mac

This is an amazing product. Downloaded demo yesterday and tried with some custom samples...  Awesome! Imho

Fair point.

And no - I don't think every business should adopt Adobe's model; the moment CorelDRAW went sub-only, I picked up Affinity Designer.

Hahaha I use Affinity photo instead of Photoshop... still find it a bit inconsistent, but does the job :-)... Apple Motion instead of After Effects, didn't really work but Resolve and it's Fusion are getting better and better to the point that is really good enough 🙂

The point is they are loosing the money and all those thousands of Euros I put into Adobe stuff prior to their subscription is now totally useless, even I run the subscription for 6 years... Digital dust is a serious syndrome 🙂

You can get 10 Forever29 simultaneous subs in a  month and cancel if you want, no need to wait

That is correct as well!

There's a slight difference though - with the Forever 29 sub, you only get one voucher a month: let's say someone wanted 10 plugins; that'd be 10 months that they would subscribe for which lines up with PA's goal of having a (somewhat) steady income stream rather than getting income spikes here and there. I say somewhat because it's possible to cancel at any time.

 

I think the vouchers above $25 are still unique.

Well that would depend does that person want to buy 10 plugins like any 10 plugins or plugins they need, and at what price- good deals currently on offer or something they really want?? It is designed to rip you off of your money for the stuff that you don't really need. So should every business then use the Adobe's subscription model... I left Adobe asap as did many, many people... heck I can't ever use my favourite program of all - After effects - but one finds alternatives. Every business should account for spikes... you release great product and give good support by releasing needed updates and fixes on time - you deserve income, you get lazy and careless - you don't... Simple.
Out and over with it 🙂

I have stated before that this game of cats and mouse that PA is doing harms their business since their introdution of Any for 30.95

Why not just put all prices to that and call it a day is beyond my understanding... perhaps to trick you somehow on spending more and perhaps on what you actually don't need... cheeky business and not so honest imo

There's no other point in it and vouchers Personal (right!) Codes are becoming a bait... especially for the novice - nothing else at least in my opinion

Bigger facilities and richer individuals have their monthly subscriptions anyways... others calculate their digital dust investments... carefully and are not stupid

I'm aware of this and have been mailing with Denis about it already couple of months ago.... just terrible! Imho

Those are awesome!
