Yeah, I have Studio One Pro, and I know I am making a mistake, but It was pointless resisting.chk071 wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 11:50 am Sometimes a little inspiration and motivation from new tools can do wonders...
That said, i won't go back to Cubase. Every time i did, i appreciated Studio One afterwards...

By the way, whats your take on the destructive nature of the arranger track in Studio One ?chk071 wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 11:50 am Sometimes a little inspiration and motivation from new tools can do wonders...

Have I missed something, because the Cubase arranger track is non destructive, and I couldn't decide if that's better or worse, so I bought it to give it an extended tryout to try and get my head around both methods.

I tried a lot of DAW's quite a few years ago, just to see what they were like, and which ones worked best for me. I don't use multiple DAW's though.telecode wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 10:52 amI honestly don't understand people that use multiple DAWs. Pick one and learn to use it really well.

Except for Cubase, the others turned out to be mostly a waste of money for me.

Well, this deal was very unexpected (talking especially about this yummy crossgrade deal). Since Cubase was my main daw up to version 5, I still have some mixed emotions every now and then when I see people talk about it. Of course I couldn’t resist and let this crossgrade deal pass on me. Maybe I get in love again....?
I just sent them a pdf capture of the receipt I got from iTunes via mail (Logic purchase). The whole procedure went smooth and got done within 1 day. So, no complaints on my side...
I can confirm that you actually get a „full“ license of Cubase and that there a is no mention of any crossgrade found in Cubase.

Mine just arrived. As you can see, the box is marked 'competitive crossgrade,' so I can see that they can indeed 'sell out' of this iteration. Also, it looks like the serial number is specific to the cgrade iteration.

Well, I do some extra work in a studio where it's good to know how to use several DAWs. People that come to the studio bring projects from various DAWs. Best way to learn is just to get them. I used to work with Cubase a lot back when it was still v1.x and it's very different compared to the new v10.telecode wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 10:52 amI honestly don't understand people that use multiple DAWs.

I hear you. It's called new toy syndrome and we are all guilty. Myself included. The problem is it wears off fast and you are right back to your original problem of not getting stuff finished as much as you would like to. The variaudio feature won't fix that. (Well, maybe the Arranger feature mightchk071 wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 11:50 am Sometimes a little inspiration and motivation from new tools can do wonders...

Some other sources of "inspiration" I find.
- pickup and read manual random areas of manual of the existing stuff you have. You might find a feature you never knew existed and you will want to explore how to use it.
- find people to collaborate and quasi compete with in the sense of who can get around to doing some more creative work sooner than the other. creativity is a collaborative process. very few of us are Prince and have that sort of self motivation. most need someone else to keep kicking us in the ass to get stuff done.

There's nothing to stop anyone learning to use more than one DAW really well.telecode wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 10:52 am I honestly don't understand people that use multiple DAWs. Pick one and learn to use it really well.
Maybe not, but it'll work wonders for your collaboration skills.Getting yet another DAW another tool in your toolbox is not going to make a change and enable you to make that great new thing that will make you stand out from the masses.

Has this ever happened to anyone? I can't register Cubase, or activate the serial#.

I am on Mac. I find both Windows and Mac bloated. The last decent ver of Windows was 7. So it doesn't really matter to me either way as my music system is independent of my regular usage system.Bombadil wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 11:10 amI agree, which is one reason why I am questioning my participation in this. But, as I said, I am preparing for a possible post-Apple future, and Logic is Apple. I love Logic, it has to be the best deal out there if you buy into their business model. I am becoming increasingly disenchanted with them, and wary, too. It's not the same company it was when I first used a Mac 30 years ago.telecode wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 10:52 amI honestly don't understand people that use multiple DAWs.

I am sitting on the side lines and waiting to see how this all plays out. In my case, I am a Cubase user and need to up to a fuller featured DAW as I am finding I am hitting the limitations of what I have now for the sort of projects I am doing. I have yet to decide if I want to buy into the stupid dongle thing or do I want to learn a new DAW.

my concerns are about whether or not my late 2015 iMac lasts me a couple of more years. If not, I'll likely move to Windoze.

backup... backup.. backup!! I am on a 2008 Mac Mini still. Waiting for it to croak before I move into a new system. Which may be a good thing given the issues i heard about the T2 chip stuff.Bombadil wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 1:29 pm my concerns are about whether or not my late 2015 iMac lasts me a couple of more years.
