ARA Support for WaveLab Elements 12.0.0

Hi,
I have upgraded to WaveLab Elements 12.0.0 and was looking forward to ARA support as statet in the Online Help as follows:
“The WaveLab Elements ARA extension, which can be integrated into various DAWs that support the ARA interface and VST 3 and grants you access to the WaveLab Elements audio editing features without having to leave the external application.”

I cannot find WaveLab Elements when I use Cubase Pro 13. Basically ARA is working in Cubase Pro 13 because I have Melodyne as well as Sepctra Layers 10 available.
Can someone help me - what’s wrong with WaveLab Elements 12.0.0 ?!

Thank you for your help!

Sorry, this is a manual mistake. There is no ARA version of WaveLab Elements.

Thank you for your quick reply.

Hi I bought wavelab 12 elements so I could use it as ARA and no other reason so I will be Pissed of At steineberg if this is true , as they did not have an 70 percent of for the upgrade how can they get away with this type of Marketing !!! I also bought the upgrade to spectral layers only to find it did not work and the reason they gave is that you cannot upgrade from the spectral layers even though it is the same version if you buy it ,I did a lot of wasted research before the purchase , I’m still wafting on my refund , but I hate to be Mr grumpy but why do they not make there marketing plainer , I know its buyer beware but I did My due dalliance as best I could and 2 times in a row I have been let down .

Where did you see this is possible?

sorry got confused was meaning spectral layers ,I was hopping to upgrade both SL and buy wave lab depending on price but discovered that spectral layers as supplied with Cubase 13 pro is not upgradable so in buying the upgrade to SLpro it would not install as spectral layers one is not the same as spectral layers Elements 11 so I now have my rebate and am looking at the price for the pro version I thought I had a loyalty voucher for this but I don’t or it was used for the elements version when I bought it or there never was one ? buying stuff online with steinberg has always been a pain , why cant the marketing department make it easy to find the right price ahhh!!
