Greetings Folks and I hope this finds you all well.
Trying to get VST Connect online but am getting the “Incompatibility Error”. I am running Cubase Pro 10.0.60 Build 396 (25FEB20). I just downloaded the latest VST Performer 5.0.20. Hoping someone can assist.
(Moved to a new thread.) Usually best to start a new thread if you have a problem unrelated to the original thread, things tend to get lost otherwise
What version of VST connect are you running in Cubase (click on the steinberg logo to find out) ?
This needs to be the same version as the Performer app.
Is it PRO or SE ?
Version 5 SE needs Cubase 11 so if you are using the SE version you need to downgrade the Performer app to the last V4 one.
I applied the hotfix to the Performer Laptop. Let me also grab it on my Studio PC/Cubase 10 Pro. I think that’s what you are suggesting - apply the hotfix to the Cubase 10 PRO PC?
I do not. I am only running the free version of VST Connect Performer on the Laptop. On my Studio PC, I have a licensed version of Cubase 10 Pro. I have not acquired a license for VST Connect PRO ever. Do I need to do this?
You say "getting the “Incompatibility Error”. Note that in some cases, it cannot be determined if the other side is running a compatible version, so in case of connection failure, the message may read “Make sure both sides use the same up-to-date version!” This doesn’t necessarily mean that the other side is running an incompatible version. If that case can be identified, the message explicitly says "“Somebody tries to connect to you, but uses an incompatible version.” If the message is any different it is very likely that the connection fails because of other reasons - most often, some so called “security software”, additional virus scanner or firewall blocker. Imho these are all counter productive anyway.
