Content Creator Bundle with Vegas Pro

Vegas pro 18 was in recent enough HUMBLE BUNDLE along with other similar software.

Interesting one in this one is the Samplitude Pro X5. I have X3, never upgraded. Its currently X8

And yes Vegas pro 18 is good. i have been using Vegas since almost V1, at the time as an audio DAW

Have 18. Upgraded to 20 and refunded. Performance is not good. Sticking with Resolve Studio and have just moved all laptop video production to my MBP. Makes it easy to avoid all the deals on crappy software applications. 

Samplitude is good, for Audio. Treat it like Pro Tools, IMO. It's probably better overall than Cakewalk at this juncture, though, even the X5 Standard SKU. Underrated, but I only use it for audio editing and cutting for sports. The X7 Suite version... cause the crossfade editor is really, really great (best out of all DAWs and Audio Editors).

I picked up Samplitude Pro X4 around 2018 (before I got the news that Cakewalk had been rescued from the ashes).  It never worked properly and was it was impossible to learn after using SONAR/Cakewalk for ages.  Since then I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it several times to give it another shot. It was still problematic for me. Most frustrating was that I couldn't figure out how to install it without the Magix "low-latency" drivers.  Each time, it messed up my PC's audio system, and I had to take extraordinary measures to remove it.  The last time I finally bought the paid version of Revo Uninstaller.

Against my better judgment, I am thinking that for $20 Samplitude Pro X5 might be worth trying.

Does anyone know of a way to prevent Samplitude from installing its audio drivers?

Hold your horses perhaps.

I just went and ordered this bundle purely for the same reason as you mention - $20 Samplitude Pro X5 - however I got the bundle email, registered it with Magix and got all the other software EXCEPT  NO Samplitude Pro X5 INCLUDED

Sent support ticket to Fanatical about this. Will update with reply here. 

EDIT - Fanatical sorted this for me, sent another code to use at Magix to retrieve the 4 packages including  Samplitude Pro X5

I appreciate the heads up!  I hope Fanatical can deliver what the website says is included.  

I just took a look at the bundle.  It definitely says 4 individual keys delivered right above images of the 4 products. Also, its listed in the description.

Yip .. I got 3 keys not 4 in the email from MAGIX with code for MUSIC MAKER Premium 2023, SOUND FORGE Audio Studio 15, Vegas Pro Edit 18 ... no code or mention of  Samplitude Pro X5, the only one I wanted from that bundle. I already have the other 3 from Humble Bundles

EDIT - Fanatical sorted this for me, sent another code to use at Magix to retrieve the 4 packages including  Samplitude Pro X5

That Vita stuff eats up space and is about as useful as the Halion SE sounds - value = none.

Yip agree. Thats why i unticked it. Kept the impulse responses & Object synth plus Convology XT Content

Does Convology XT Complete come with a serial number as it generally requires one?

The Magix installers can show gear that isn't necessarily licensed with the version you have and will just run in demo mode.

I believe that  Convology XT Complete only comes with Samplitude Pro X5 Suite. What is offered here is not Suite.

Yes, that's what I was implying.
If you don't have a serial number, then the fact that it shows in the installer is irrelevant.

In answer to above Qs .. the Convology complete and content mentioned in the install has NO LICENSE I could find so dont bother installing it, untick the Convology items in previous screen to below, do same with the APU plugins i would say. This bundle in reality only includes Samplitude Pro X5 software, no more.

Correct, however, you can see what does come with it HERE as opposed to Music Studio and Suite versions.
