Content Missing When Importing Profiles Between Cubase 14/15 and Cubase 15/15

[Reco29]

Hi,

first of all: Yes, as long as Cubase 14 is still on your system it should be doable.

Have you actively created a profile in Cubase 14? If you didn’t then there will be no profile to draw from. Usually, your preferences should have automatically being transferred to C15 during the update - with or without profiles. Apparently, this didn’t work out in your case.

What I would do: Open Cubase 14 and create a profile following this instruction.

It takes a lot of time and energy to set up all these presets in the title and it is very cumbersome to rebuild them once they are lost. So it might be a good idea to secure them. Not only for security reasons but also if you want to update another system or copy them to a brandnew system. The file system can be confusing and sometimes presets are saved in more than one location. Moreover, there are some pitfalls that one should be aware of. At first, this might sound like a complicated and nerv…

Afterwards, import this new profile to C15. You will notice, that your control room presets will not be transferred properly as I described above. However, that’s a one time thing once the new file structure is established. I am still connecting the dots how the new profile.xml interacts with Control Room presets but I am almost there.

First, try this way and see if anything is missing. If this shouldn’t work - I very much expect it does - please, list the preferences that are missing. There are other ways to restore them, too. Not as elegant as the profile functionality but it’s still doable.
