I have been checking the harrison site every week for the v10 upgrade since January. Thanks for posting this. My email was in lost in a spam folder. I was confused at first looking for Mixbus 10 vs Mixbus32 v10. Then I saw a harrison youtube video that clarified this for me:--I saw this on the youtube notes: "Old Mixbus is gone and Mixbus32c has been replaced with just one DAW called Mixbus. You have the option of 3 different tiers to get the features you want." For me i get Plus for $79 and Pro for $99. The Plus upgrade is about the same price for previous 32 upgrades over the last few years. The Pro gets the additional SSL 9000J option. For me this is a no brainer. Thanks again for posting this news! C2

Follow-Up. I spent last night playing Millennium French Organ. I highly recommend this. It has 28 stops. Three manuals (Grand, Positif, and Pedals), plus 5 different mics, and 25 snap shots. It is versatile and has great range from soft flute stops to powerful, roaring stops suitable for the great toccatas. It really is nice, fun to play FYI--there is now a Walkthrough video that shows many of the features. Go to https://www.streamtechmusic.com/millennium to find the walkthrough video and to find details about the stops, manuals, etc. It is now only $49 until December 18 . FYI-- I am not being paid to say this, I just found this pipe organ vst worth my money. Definitely recommend this one. C2

Just downloaded and it sounds very nice!

Thanks for recommending this. I just purchased it to get the deconvolution feature . Also, I just tried to use the BF code at checkout. It worked for me. Good price ($5) C2

Found the answer to my question on the NI site that says you can't run 2.9 AND 3.x. Only one can run on a machine, but you can downgrade from 3 to 2.9 if needed.

This is not good news. My NI S61mk1 still works great. I will not buy another NI keyboard since they have had this habit of discontinuing support for their hardware. I will not update KompleteKontrol and will keep it at v2.9 as long as it works with Win11pro. I wonder if there is anyway to run two versions of kompleteKontrol by renaming the exe file? Remember Roland's debacle??? I am still using my Roland/Edirol PCM800 that Roland discontinued when Roland stopped support for Win10. Thankfully there was a hack that allowed it to be used with Win 10 and now with Win11. Between Roland and NI being unreliable for long term keyboard support this is bad for the industry. Why purchase a keyboard from a company that will not provide support for more that a couple years? [just venting] C2

Anyone had problems with the Tonex 1.2 update (Desktop PC version)? I just updated and authorized, v1.2 but it would not connect to the ToneNet site to access the presets and it would not find my stored Tonex saved presets (the red light never turned green and I got an error message). So I tried reauthorizing, reinstalling, rebooting..... nothing helped. I also logged directly into my ToneNet account via chrome and no problems logging onto ToneNet with a computer, but could never get Tonex v1.2 to log onto my ToneNet account. So, I went back to the previous version 1.17 and all is fine. All presets are working fine, but not with the 1.2. FYI-- I also updated Amplitube to v5.7.0 and it is fine and successfully logs into ToneNet fine, but the Tonex (desktop) 1.2 will not log into the ToneNet. Anyone else having issues with this Tonex 1.2 update? C2

This is very reassuring. Thanks for this post. FYI-- I am a LOYAL Cakewalk/Sonar/CnB user since 1994 (Cakewalk DOS days). I am glad to see there is a future for the Sonar DAW. I always upgraded/updated every year. Glad to see that the we can "always own the last version you paid for". Good news! I hope that there will also be some upgrade/update path discount like there was with Sonar over the years. As I remember we would get "Sales" opportunities to purchase the annual update at discount. I remember getting those special offers to purchase the next version at a discount for those who already owned the previous version. I looked forward to those deals, as I still do for Cubase, Studio One and Mixbus. Most DAWs still offer update discounts every year or every other year to update/upgrade so you don't have to buy the product anew all over. I hope this also will be an option for us with forthcoming Sonar DAW . Sonar/Cakewalk/CnB has always been my "go to" DAW. While Ii own and use Cubase Pro 12, Studio One and Mixbus , the Cakewalk brand has always been my first choice in DAWS. Thanks for securing the future of a great program! I look forward to learning more about the annual pricing (options) . Cecelius2

Ordered 14CE update ($226) from Best Service, but have not received serial--it has been a couple of hours. They may be overwhelmed and delayed getting sn from NI?? Anyone else having a delay getting serial numbers from Best Service? C2 [edit: got it serial number. when I got up the next morning. Very Happy.--Thanks]

The Claire Woodwinds looks very tempting at $98. I have Spitfire Albion and NI Symphony( plus others) for ensemble playing, but the Claire solo instruments may be useful for solo instruments. Anyone own the Claire Woodwind Bundle? Pros or Cons?

Hi: I just installed Windows 11 on a new build (12700k with Noctua NH-D15) and love it; I am new to Win 11. Wow, this is a fast machine. However, I have security alerts to turn On "Core Isolation". I have read old posts that some people had trouble with Core Isolation on while installing Cakewalk when Win 11 first came out. I have it OFF. There are two settings that have alerts: First is the "Memory integrity". Second is the "Local Security Authority protection". Should These two Core Isolation settings be turned on? Thanks C2

Thanks for this info. I just got a new PC with Win11 Pro and I was prepared to edit the inf file to show Win11 info as you descirbed; however, I decided first to try the Win10 (hacked) driver (the one that was hacked back in 2015 to allow us to use it with Win10). Good news, I was able to install the PCR800 by using the Win10 hacked driver from 2015. So, I can confirm that Windows 11 can load the edited/hacked version of the Roland/Edirol PCR800 driver. Still, I thank you for this info. C2

Just updated from v1. Cost me $30 USD (discount automatically showed up at checkout). This was a no brainer. Love the original. Look forward to the new enhancements.

Sad news-- I got a notification on my computer that Macrium Reflect 8 Home backup/cloning software is discontinuing their free version. Google search shows that Updates to the free version will end on January 1, 2024. This is sad news. Macrium Reflect 8 home free is a good product. I have Acronis, but they are pushing their subscription version. I normally buy a perpetual license every couple years, but may have to go to the subscription version. So--What will you guys be using as an alternative/replacement? C2

Thanks for this info. I was on youtube an hour ago looking for some of Simeon's helpful walktrhough videos and was worried for Simeon. Good luck Simeon. Keep us posted. Hope you get this fixed and return to making your helpful videos. C2
