Cubase 6.5 / Cubase Artist 6.5: 6.5.4 Update available

[CubaseCube]

Hello, Cubasers!

I have Cubase 6.0, and am unable to purchase the upgrade to 6.5.... Is it not available for Purchase as an upgrade? OR should I just wait for 7.0? I know it's coming out in December 5....

I activated my 6.0 in late 2011 so I'm definitely outside of the grace period.... I just wasn't sure if it was something I needed OR wait for 7.0 to come out ....

Thanks all....

GREAT software ... been using it for YEARS!

It is not available right now, exactly because Cubase 7 was announced. You will have to wait until december to buy an 6 to 7 update.

Is there a plan to release a properly supported update after the 6.5.4 non-supported one?

If there will be one more update for Cubase 6.5, I kindly have the request for the new feature in 7.0.1 for seperate color setting in Arrange window and Key edit window!
I like to have the Arrange window dark, but don't get used to the inversed black and white keys in Key editor.

....The next fully supported maintenance updates will include the improvements among others.

When will the "fully supported maintenance update" be released? It is needed.

[Mark Gilchrease]

We don't have to pay for updates!!!!

6.5 is an update for 6-0? update .. but we have to pay for it?

[Mauri]

Well, if I remember correctly, the C6.5 includes Retrologue and Padshop plus a couple of other things which the free update 6.07 does not have.

I did'nt mind paying $50.00 for those.

Cheers,

Mauri.

No, 6.5 was a different version of its own, with updates being developed for both. C6 is finished with version 6.0.7 and 6.5 is awaiting the last supported version, which will be 6.5.5. The difference in price (€ 50) was made up by the release of Cubase 7, which is € 50 cheaper coming from 6.5.

An upgrade requires an activation code which requires payment, whereas an update does not require either.

Generally at least, this has been the procedure in the past.

I dont know i've back to 6.5.3 to have a stable version, I'm using Komplete Ultimate 8 and Melodyne, in 6.5.4 somethimes crash when the Ram it's hardly used. I think it depends ond the VST instruments management expecially with Kontakt and his drums libraries and strings libraries. So it's much better than C7 of course but I would have the 6.5.4 improvements without these problems. I'm working also under 10.7.5 in 32bit mode. 64 bit mode it's very unstable like C7. I know there are not problems under windows, but Mac versions suffers a lot of bugs when you use external hardware FX and Native Instruments.

thanks

Why would you expect Cubase 6 to open a Cubase 7 project?

And, why are you posting about it in this thread?

BTW, 6.5.4 is stable for me.

My friend, i've exposed this issue because Steinberg says I can open Cubase 7 project under 6.5.4, that's why. With some exeptions about Cubase 7 features of course. But I didnt used any "special" features in the C7 project. I hope it's more clear now.
I started a project under C7 but under OSX 10.7.5 it crash and CPU spikes, as other osx user reports. So they suggest to back to 6.5 and open the project but....... I cant. 6.5.4 get more crash than 6.5.3 on my experiences on OSX 10.7.5 and 10.8.2 , if you are Windows user you should not have any problems as I saw on the forum users experience. Remaining in 6.5.3 still crash on quit somethimes. Looks like problems with Ram and 64bit management of the system. But i'm not a programmer, that's what I feel.

Thanks for asking.

* Although the internal preliminary testing indicates that the updates are stable and reliable, technical support cannot be granted. The next fully supported maintenance updates will include the improvements among others.

Steinberg, can you please provide a fully supported maintenance update. The supported 6.5.3 was released 7 month's ago. Releasing a new product version, without properly releasing a supported maintenance update for the previous product version, looks a little disorganized for a company.

Hello, Speedring Here

I have more gear than I know how to use and I a am stuck trying to more forward. I have had cubase for a long time but never really got the hang of it and currently have version 6.5.4. I am a drummer and have a electronic Roland VPro Drum set. I have successfully recorded 8 channels out of my Roland drum module and added some Halion One systh stuff to it. These can be heard at www.soundcloud.com/Jacksstudio

My stumbling block is with the outputs. I have a Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 and it comes with a program called Mix Control. This program is either so simple that I am trying to hard or it is way to confusing to make sense. Should I be using Cubase to organize the headphone mixes I need or do I need to to use a program like mix control to route custom headphone mixes. I currently can monitor the Stereo 1/2 output on my studio monitors.

In addition I have read several threads on making a click track in Cubase that can be sent to one of these custom mixes. None of the threads describing the process the same so did not want to waste allot of time trying them. Can anyone help.

[Strophoid]

You might want to create your own topic instead of hijacking the update announcement topic.
Anyway, read up on the control room in the Cubase manual, that can do what you want.

Just went back to my motorcycle repair shop because they forgot to properly mount one and other.
Luckily I don't drive Yamaha.
