Looks they added the entire Cableguys ShaperBox as default functionality.  

And midi integration and new logical editor looks very interesting. 

Can't wait to try this in a year when they fix all the bugs.

Yep...Steinberg hasn't sent out the 12 Licenses yet I assume...which should have happened FIRST

I don't think it has been officially released yet.

It's up on their web page...I don't think it gets any more official than that!

[locrian]

It has not been announced yet...what I've posted is just a sneak preview.

I got the grace period update a couple of hours ago ?

you need to go into the activation manager with your C11 dongle and 'request it' - it's an option in the top RHS account dropdown menu thing.......

a new download code is sent - then you need to change this to an activation code (you can do this in the SDA or online) then update your dongle licence to a NFR/NFU one and the C12 licence is added to your online account

a few long needed improvements but nothing too radical IMO - which I think was to be expected

Track-level ARA functionality and Audio Warp directly in the Track Editor are big improvements which finally allow us to easily align any type of event across tracks.

[cclarry]

Aha...there is an option under the Account menu for "Grace Period Check" that get's you the license,
but I ran it and got "no license found"

yes I think they are welcome - apart from one of the issues with ARA within cubendo is that some ARA plugs (spectralogic for example) store the ARA/wav data in the project file.  This means the project files can get massive.  The take ages to load/save and when they hit 4gig cubendo won't load them anymore

(lots of other postings on the same issue and it's an acknowledged issue )

Applying to an entire track at once just makes the problem worse IMO - I tend to render out clips and apply where needed.  Maybe C12/SL8.2 have fixed the problem ?

if you log into your mysteinberg account and look at the licences on your dongle in mysteinberg  you will (should?) see one marked 'grace period eligible'  - it's written in brackets after the licence description
