I use a lot of software...Cubase, Nuendo, Samplitude, Sound Forge, Wavelab, etc. and I've only encountered a single bug yet I see some people encounter bugs with absolutely every piece of software under the sun! The bug I ran across was in the last few releases of Sonar and every release of Cakewalk...the software would refuse to see my soundcard and I would have to delete a file and then setup my card like brand new...every time I opened the app! This was with a PCI card(Echo Layla 3G) in Windows 7 Pro so not a USB thing. I'm using a TB3 interface now(Presonus Quantum 2626) in Win 11 Pro and mostly using Nuendo with no problems. My DAW is TB4 but I couldn't find a good affordable interface so I went TB3 Bill

I own Horizon v14 and some loose plugins and my upgrade price is 800! No thanks Bill

Nice setup! Enjoy the new place Bill

I figured it was worth the shot, thanks for letting me know! Bill

Can you stack vouchers? I have a 50.00 monthly and everyone gets the 25.00 so....I'd like to grab Tape Face on the cheap side Bill

I had a Sound City 120 head with a Sunn 610 reflex cabinet. Also at some point I had a nice Roland JC-120 Now guitar goes into a Line6 PodXT in bypass mode through a Mackie analog mixer into a Presonus Quantum 2626! Bill

Sorry to hear Dave, friends are hard to come by and old friends even more so! Bill

Happy Birthday! Bill

I got a 25.00 and a 50.00....how's that work? Bill

Happy Birthday...installed? Bill

My first build many moons ago wouldn't power up....forgot to put the standoffs in so the MB was contacting the case Put the standoffs in and voila! Bill

I think when I upgraded my Win 10 to Pro it just enabled the extra features? Bill

The laptop came with Win 11, the desktop I built so I bought Win 11 for that. I haven't had any troubles and it's been about 6 months or so on the desktop and even longer on the laptop. Bill

My DAW went from Win7 Ultimate to a new system running Win 11 and my laptop went from Win 10 Pro to a new one running Win 11...overall I like Win 11 more than 10 but miss the control of Win 7! Bill

I didn't like the context menu on right click...got tired of hitting more all the time so I used this to restore the old contextul menu- Restore old Context Menu in Windows 11 Right-click the Start button and choose Windows Terminal. Copy the command from below, paste it in Windows Terminal Window, and press enter. reg.exe add "HKCU\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}\InprocServer32" /f /ve Restart File Explorer or your computer for the changes to take effect. You would see the Legacy Right Click Context menu by default. The Registry change masks the new COM object that executes the compact menus with the "Show more options" entry. Once you get this performed, Explorer reverts to the Legacy context menu. Restore Modern Context menus in Windows 11 To undo this change, in an elevated Terminal Window, execute this command: reg.exe delete "HKCU\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}" /f Restart the File Explorer or Computer for the changes to take effect. These steps can help you to enable the old context menu in Windows 11. I also edited the location of the toolbar items...I have them on the left where they belong....you can look that up if you're interested. I bought a new laptop and built a new desktop so they've only seen Win 11...I actually like it better than 10...though it's not a lot different. Using Google Play on my desktop is cool Good luck! Bill

Wavelab integrates with Cubase and you can send audio files back and forth the same way you can with Cakewalk and Sound Forge. For mastering you would setup a montage which allows full control over each track or parts of the tracks for fades, fx, etc. You can generate a DDP file, export as mp3, etc. Personally I like that if I don't use every feature it's still there if I need it in the future...beats buying new software every time you want to do something not in your current program. With Nuendo there's a few things I'll use now but I'm thinking about making vids in the future and Nuendo will be handy! Bill

https://forums.steinberg.net/t/nuendo-12-crossgrade-question/783283 I took it from there...hopefully it's right! Bill

I think I'm going to crossgrade my Cubase Pro 12 to Nuendo 12...from what I understand I'll still be able to run my Cubase 11 Pro and older with my eLicenser and my Cubase Pro 12 will remain active and upgradeable...got that from a Nuendo guy at the steinberg forum. Bill

Wavelab is a digital audio editor, a mastering solution, file conversion, podcast audio...basically everything you need to supplement your DAW. Crossgrades usually require a serial and it will take a day or two for them to check and approve your purchase Bill

Happy New Year! Bill

Oh, upgraded to iZotope MPS 5 Universal too so...no more dinero for a while Bill

I took the plunge the other day....I updated from Samplitude Pro X3 Suite. Samplitude was my backup plan for Sonar. It seems like a pretty powerful DAW but it was really awkward to use so it was back to Sonar....till I crossgraded to Cubase Pro 10...I have 12 installed but haven't tried it yet...still running 11. I really want to spend some time with Samplitude to get more comfortable with it but it will be the backup for Cubase Bill
