Just got Cubase 12. Wonderful. Dorico 4 is wonderful. I have pulled my USB dongle. Just like having a bad tooth extracted! It’s great.
Thank you to the Steinberg team for your fantastic hard work.

Now, let’s wait for VSL to leave that dongle… 
Indeed. One of the reasons I don’t buy Vienna Instruments (apart from the price… 
) is the requirement for a dongle.
when last I heard, VSL were planing to move to some version if iLok. That doesn’t need a dongle either though I hope it will be server-based as my EWQL choirs libraries are currently licensed to the hard drive which is not really ideally secure. Vienna Instruments are quite expensive but there are frequent sales and I don’t think you get less for your money than with, say, Orchestral Tools.
