Their website is getting slammed right now lol. I wonder if they will have some kind of discount on Sphere for existing customers? I am interested in the collaboration features, especially with the current epidemic.

Sure, I can see how those - and other new features - can be exciting for many people, just not for me. I'll still have to check the demo though, because often it's the small, some times not even mentioned tweaks that have the biggest impact

So, which DAW are you moving to now?

Moving isn't the only option available.... there are means and ways to make S1 more polished, if one knows how.

Where did you see anything about SP being updated? Can't find it anywhere.

No, thanks. I've seen your videos. Our definitions of "polished" are polar opposites. And believe me - I'm Polish after all

Nobody said it yet, but the Artist version finally has VST/AU ability included without extra cost. A huge feature for those not needing the professional version.

Personably I find the show page more interesting/useful in a fundamentally linear DAW (plus I own Live and Bitwig anyway so have that covered!), once again proving you can never please everyone!

The arranger track and scratchpad are both very powerful (and updated) for composition.

How was arranger or scratchpad updated?

Sphere is 14.95 / month, or 165 a year. It doesn't appear that there is any discount or offer for exisiting owners of Studio One Pro , which is a shame.

Presonus site must be getting crushed. Bought my upgrade from JRRShop, but unable to register it on my.presonus.com. Site gives an error about the serial I received.

EDIT: Aaaaaaannnnd that entire site is down now.

Oh well, I'll give it some time and check back later.
