Will there be a free N14 update to N13 crossgrade for Cubase13 Pro activated after February 18 as well? ---

I wonder if there will be any special discounts or facilities for those of us who are already users. to upgrade to Nuendo 14. > [@RadioTal](#): > > There will be once n14 hits the sale. I think Jean was asking about _recent_ N13 purchases beyond the grace period, not _all_ N13 users to whom Timo appears to be referring. @JeanPlascet while it would be nice, I’m presuming “no.” If recent N13 purchases _beyond_ the grace period were going to get a special “grace period extension” deal, then people close to that extension would would one too - this is why an explicit “GRACE PERIOD NOW ACTIVE” announcement was made. I’m in the same boat (Nov24 cross-grade purchase) and I’m expecting to pay $199 for the upgrade to N14 when it hits. Or whatever it is. ---

Yes, the Grace Period includes all “paths” to Nuendo. ---

This is odd, you don’t normally announce new versions before they’re out! Didn’t do that with Cubase! ---

Correct. We don’t have a grace period extension. We had a couple of Sales Actions last year including the Steinberg 40 years Mega Sale for Nuendo, giving 50% discount on Full and Updates for 3 weeks in Autumn. The Grace Period cannot even by extended technically. Imagine it to be like a clock that you start and then it runs. ---

Hi; Please make future updates for Cubase and Nuendo at the same time. This disconnection can be heartbreaking for us Nuendo users 🙂 ---

Timo, what you say makes sense. I took advantage of the fall deals, culminating my transition from other audio production companies to Steinberg. I can say that your products are the best in the music industry. I look forward to Nuendo 14’s release. Thanks to the Steinberg team. ---

In my case, I did my crossgrade on November 28th, although I admit that I took advantage of a good discount. Of course I would like there to be a good offer for users who do not enter the grace period, although I suppose that will not be the case. We will have to wait for news in March. ---

> [@tepa](#): > > so a Cubase special trial extension for Nuendo user is by now a great solution 😉 Well “by now” it is not, we need to look into this, if this is even possible. The earliest to do this would be generation 15. But I cannot promise this will be possible, as it would require an account-based trial provision process. We will dive into it when time comes. ---

Cannot wait for this. One question that may/may not be able to be answered. One feature I am using currently for directing a musical is the import musicxml. I think Cubase 14 doesn’t allow this yet, and I’m assuming Nuendo 14 will also be following the new score editor? ---
