This update, and the upgrade options are really weird... obviously, Padshop 2 is part of Cubase 10.5 anyway, as i read on the Steinberg site. AND, Padshop 2 isn't compatible with anything older than Cubase 10.5, because it is incompatible with the built in Padshop. So, the only upgrade path i see is for someone who owns Padshop Pro (i think they also stopped selling the "regular" Padshop (non-pro) at some point).
Really confusing. I don't even know if i can upgrade my single Padshop Pro license to Padshop 2. Because, i only have the Pro license, i don't have the regular Padshop license, or a Cubase license anymore, so, Padshop won't even activate on my system anymore. Hope they can shed some light on how the upgrade is supposed to work.

The High DPI mode was actually added in version 1.2.10.courtjestr wrote: ↑Thu Nov 14, 2019 4:38 amGUI is resizable...sort of.

If High DPI Mode is activated, the plug-in uses high-resolution bitmaps when
it is displayed with a scaling of 150?% and higher on a high-resolution monitor,
such as 4K (UHD), 5K, etc. This allows for sharper images on high-resolution
displays.
NOTE
Windows systems currently only support scaling factors that are multiples of
100. For example, if you use a scaling factor of 150?%, in Padshop, the scaling
factor used is 200?%.
High DPI Mode may not be compatible with some combinations of software
and hardware. If you experience display issues with your setup, you can
deactivate High DPI Mode.
If High DPI Mode is deactivated, the native monitor resolution is used.

I would suggest to write to info@steinberg.de or call them.chk071 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 14, 2019 8:43 am This update, and the upgrade options are really weird... obviously, Padshop 2 is part of Cubase 10.5 anyway, as i read on the Steinberg site.

I was facing some reactivation issues, so I called the support yesterday. The guy on phone was really supportive and solved the problem in a minute.
I wonder why you think the upgrade won't work for you. If you have Padshop Pro and it is not linked to Cubase, you can update to Padshop 2, right?

Anyone tried it yet? Is there a demo?

How did you guys get it? I purchased it but can't download it as SDA doesn't open for me.Tried turning antivirus off and my firewall, all compatibilty modes on Win10 and it still doesn't start. Do you guys know if there is a manual file I can download or is it all through the SDA?

I hope so. I'm just not sure, because, my Padshop Pro license doesn't work on it's own, because the "base Padshop", which comes with Cubase, isn't present anymore.LoveEnigma18 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 14, 2019 8:53 amI would suggest to write to info@steinberg.de or call them.chk071 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 14, 2019 8:43 am This update, and the upgrade options are really weird... obviously, Padshop 2 is part of Cubase 10.5 anyway, as i read on the Steinberg site.

Ok, then the person who claimed that it wouldn't work on the Steinberg forums was obviously wrong.
P.S.: Actually it's even stated by Steinberg... https://www.steinberg.net/en/newsandeve ... -5312.html

It may be important to note that the available update to Padshop 2 is incompatible with the Padshop included in Cubase. For all of you running Cubase Pro and Artist: we recommend updating to the Cubase 10.5 to use Padshop 2.

Actually, the high-DPI GUI for Padshop Pro was already demonstrated here on KVR: viewtopic.php?p=7274637#p7274637

How does it actually work? I mean is there anything else I need to do apart from enabling the high-DPI mode in Padshop itself? I am using FL Studio in case it matters.DJ Warmonger wrote: ↑Thu Nov 14, 2019 11:09 am Actually, the high-DPI GUI for Padshop Pro was already demonstrated here on KVR: viewtopic.php?p=7274637#p7274637

Not sure that'll help since I'm under HS but it failed too at first try.Calenberger wrote: ↑Thu Nov 14, 2019 12:46 pm Validation of Padshop 2 failed on MacOS Mojave and LogicPro.
Went to Plug-in Manager/selected/reset and scan again to finally validate successfully.

Just opened a support ticket.
We'll see...
