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

I'm still using the FXpansion versions of BFD2 and BFD3 in Win 11. Never had one issue! I saw too many problems with the inmusic changes and never updated. I don't know what I'd use if my BFD's stopped working...nothing else impresses me much. Bill

I would move everything back where it originally installed. Then open Native Access and instead of Install choose Relocate and choose where you want each thing, basically the master folder everything goes into Bill

So what happened? I saw a locked thread with a newbie giving Larry some bs but other than that I'm left wondering. Bill

You can authorize to as many machines as you want, just plug in to the one you're using...the only issue is when people want to "test" the software on their friends machine Why does anyone need to run the same software on more than one machine at the same time?? Bill

Explain the single machine to me. I have a bunch of Steinberg software and everything is loaded on two machines. I just have to transfer the eLic to whichever machine I'm using. Bill

Started writing and recording this today...definitely a work in progress- Bill

A few months and I'll probably wind up in Cubase 12 knowing I can always use 11 when there's an issue with activation I just spent a bundle on a new machine I put together so I have to cool it on the new purchases! I picked up a MOTU Midi Express XT for the midi gear...no USB Midi here. Went TB4 but had trouble finding a new interface so went with a TB3 interface...Presonus Quantum 2626. Bill

I don't care for the new activation method....install a new hd, get a new activation...have a major update in Windows, get a new activation...mess with your Lan, get a new activation. Right now my Cubase always works and I can switch machines just by moving my eLicenser. Cubase 12 is definitely a downgrade license wise. But with that said I may give in one of these days Still running Wavelab Pro 11 on the elicenser as well...if it ain't broke don't fix it Bill

Ok, I'll ask...how did an update wreck your installation? Here if there's an update for the app it self installs and then opens up like usual. Are you moving it after the install? Bill

I'm sticking with 11 right now...not real excited about the new licensing scheme. I've usually updated as soon as the update is available and have never had any issues...but it all depends on how you use your DAW :) Bill

I just finished a 12th gen build...i9-12900k, Asus ProArt Z690 Creator Wifi, 128gb DDR5 ram, 2 M2 SSDs(out of 4 slots), MSI 1660 Super(6gb) Videocard, TB4, etc. Running Win 11 Pro with a Presonus Quantum 2626 and MOTU Midi Express XT. I highly recommend the experience! Right now between the 2 M2's and 4 satas along with an external I have 19tb of space! Bill

I wonder if the Fender CEO can figure out how to use these without an MIT degree? Bill

I have a feeling that the majority of music software users are NOT musicians. If you look at the changes taking place in all the major titles they all veer towards the non-musician...loop browsers, EZ this EZ that, AI, blah blah blah. The main reason I jumped ship from Cakewalk to Cubase was just this...but it's starting to affect all music software. Hopefully all that will come of this is an idiot version of Studio One for those not interested in learning anything about music in the first place! Bill

I've been wanting to do a prog project for a long time but wouldn't because it seemed to me a project like that would require outside players even though I play guitar, drums, and keys. Somewhere along the way I said the hell with it and I'm doing what I want! Right now I'm working on my third album and each album pushes me closer and closer to a true prog release. This one is more guitar oriented instead of keys like the first two. So far I have four pieces ready to mix and about 23-25 to finish I even have the album cover done and the artwork for the back cover done....just need to fill in the text! As a "one man band" it's both rewarding and difficult doing everything yourself. I just built a new machine- ASUS ProArt Z690 Creative Wi-Fi board, i9 12900k, 128gb Ram(DDR5), yadda yadda...Motu Midi Express XT, Presonus Quantum 2626. Runs anywhere from 2ghz to 5ghz depending on the load. Got 2 out of 4 M2's in(1tb OS, 2tb Audio drive) and 4 sata hdd....I can either throw 2 more M2's in or 4 more sata drives, or 1 more M2 and the 4 more sata drives!! If I can't make music now it's not the hardware or softwares fault Bill

NOLAGuy, I just used Amazon as I get 5% back with my Amazon Chase card I just installed Win 11 and drivers tonight...tomorrow the Presonus and MOTU units. This is the easy stuff, the fun part's going to be the software moves... then sata moves and that should be it....for now Oh, and with my Prime membership everything came quick! Bill

Looking good Larry! As far as Win11 goes I have it on a newer laptop(this one as a matter of fact) and did a couple of edits- Moved the Taskbar to the left and enabled the Google Playstore. Easy to do if you search for it Bill
