There is talk that it is an 'artificial' block, in other words it would possibly run fine but PreSonus have decided to block the installation on Win7/8/8.1 for whatever reason, whether true or not who knows. If you want to get a copy of Win10 Pro know for use later on at a cheap price, they are still available via the following. Don't worry that it says June 30, it has been extended. I just checked and they are still available. Edited July 9, 2020 by ensconced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hbarton Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 FYI I saw a update on another site that the owner Eric? said they were aware and sorry about the problems - they hoped to have things up and running today, but I guess they ran into more problems. I had some "bucks" available from other purchases at Best Service and managed to pick up the SO Pro upgrade for $122 from them. Got the serial in a minute and no probs - installing it now. h Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vernon Barnes Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Watching reviews and intro videos I am beginning to find the idea of subscribing to Sphere appealing. I have found MuseScore 2 useful recently for making rough scores for a session singer and found it really useful when writing lyrics but its a bit on the clunky side (it is free so I can't complain.) Having something better that Cakewalk's staff view integrated in the DAW, plus the full stand alone version of Notion available could be very useful. The other standout for me is the keyswitch lanes which look very useful. I am not sure how much the collaboration tools will bring to the party, dropbox seems to be working well enough for me but 30GB of online storage sounds useful and they say it can be accessed by non-Sphere users using other DAWs. I recently upgraded Melodyne and while watching the Groove 3 instruction video I noticed it should communicate with S1's chord track which could be handy. Beyond that I was taken by the fact that some of the new features have been in Cakewalk for a while. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One good thing about Windows Hello is it can allow you to log in with a PIN (which might be simpler than a password). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But back up copies of your v4 projects because once saved in v5, they cannot be used in v4 again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The box itself (I ordered another one of those as well and is sitting in backorder) only has a key for 2.0. Back in Feb, they ran a special that came with X-Change, a midi controller and a code for Studio One 4 which I held on to since I already had 4. I was originally thinking I might sell the codes for S1 but glad I held them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
