    Looking to get "Elements" which is $99 outright, or $49 if you have AI/LE
    No upgrades on sale yet...but should be down the road...

    I'm personally a bit doubt because they had some sale about 5 month ago and they usually make singe sale per year.
    wonder what do you think on the subject ?

    There's a bunch of those 25% off codes...Pro Tools, Ableton, etc...
    they've been around for quite awhile!

    wonder do they ever go lower then that ? )

    UltraPAK vs UltraPAK+ seems to have single difference of "Songs & Lessons PAK" yet its significant price difference is UltraPAK+ really worth the extra ?

    @Leok85 Yes, that's how it should work (as long as the current policy for upgrades stays the same  - they've maintained it for years but, as financial advisors say,  "past performance does not guarantee future results")

    that's amazing huge save on the long run

    much thanks buddy 👍

    It's not only 0.5 to full. I've held Cubase update codes without registering them for more than a cycle. The way I've observed it works is:

    The version you're upgrading from is fixed to a specific version number (or range of versions, depending on what you buy). E.g., if you buy an upgrade for 10.5 -> 11 you cannot use it for 7.5 -> 11

    Your eLicenser will get a license for the latest available version at the time of registration. This applies to full licenses as well, not just updates/upgrades

    Examples:

    • I bought an update code for Cubase 7.5 -> 10 in May 2019 and registered it at the end of last year, I got a license for Cubase 11
    • I bought an old boxed version of Dorico 1.0 in August last year that was on clearance (from an amazon.com marketplace seller). When I registered it I got a license for Dorico 3.5

    This is how it worked in the past but as far as I know it is not in any "contract" or entitlement. It is a very generous policy so it shouldn't be too surprising if Steinberg decides to change it at some point in the future, YMMV

    Eusebio Rufian-Zilbermann tell me please

    I already have Cubase pro 10.5.
    if I'll buy now the "Cubase 11 pro Update" and  hold it without registering  for example 2 years
    once they release 12 version and only then I will register "Cubase 11 pro Update" will I be able to received automatic grace update to 12 version for free? 🙂

    Thanks you

    Correct me if I'm wrong.

    If you did not buy it on such as sale, you would actually have to pay more for it now due to the pricing structure.

    You going to fault them for that?

    somehow you really don't get the nesty trick they done by this "PROMOTION"
     

    I'll try to give you illustration and honestly hoping you could understand the feeling.
     you buy ticket to theater show but surprising you receive a recorded CD to watch it at home  but yet the ticket seller  
    tell "you want to see the live show pay additional cost"

    thats exactly the feeling because if me so as everyone else would know prior the "PROMOTION" that in next 2 weeks I'll have to pay addition
    cost to use recent version I probably wouldn't buy it on the first place

    Not sure what you paid, but a lot of people got v3 for $25 (thanks to sale plus vouchers) and then are now offered v4 for $99.  Well that has to be cheaper total cost than any option that was available to GP customers, right?

    the point here is absolutely not related to pricing what ever it will be $5, $50 etc..
    the problem is PA attitude.
    best it was already described by member @sarine in one of the previous posts here with which I 100% agree

    That said, running a sale on the previous version two weeks prior to releasing the next - without announcing the next version - would be a scumbag move and say a lot about how the company views you, the customer; you're a dumb, dead resource. Give them the same treatment!

    thank you for contacting PA support !
    Unfortunately, you are not eligible for a free upgrade to Gig Performer 4 UNLOCKED since you grabbed Gig Performer 3 UNLOCKED as a special offer.
    Nevertheless, I am happy to tell you that GP 3 U owners are able to upgrade to GP 4 U at a reduced price for just $ 99.99 !
    Simply log in to your PA account, add GP 4 UNLOCKED to your cart and let the magic happen !

    Best,

     

    no wonder he is Happy to tell me that.
    only thing left to say PA have slicky attitude to run sales and squeeze its costumers
