Just to be sure: If I buy Cubase 8 Pro second hand from somebody, I can upgrade that to Nuendo 8 and will get Nuendo 10 for free Q2 2019?
Also, how long wil this sale last?
I’ve bought it. Cubase 4 or higher and nuendo3.x or higher。
How long does the sale last? I have been trying to find out and don’t see that info anywhere. Thanks!
Hello mbira,
this sale will last until Nuendo 10 is released in Q2 this year.
Next week we will (again) have more information about the Nuendo 10 release for you.
All the best,
Luis
Weirdly, there’s a different price for Cubase 10 Pro users on this page:
https://www.steinberg.net/en/shop/crossgrades.html
I’ve been doing game audio for 26 years now (so I guess the way I do things is old fashioned), but I can’t see anything which would want me to move from Cubase at the moment. IF they had the connect functionality for FMOD as well as Wwise, then perhaps - some of my clients use one, some use the other… but until then I think I’ll pass. I’m fine as it is naming markers with asset filenames for export etc.
But there’s no Cubase to Nuendo crossgrade on that page.
Hmm… bottom row, third from left…
Thank you. I’m a Cubase Pro 10 user and I don’t want to lose the new features. I understand they are coming in Nuendo 10. I don’t want to go without those features for a few months. Is it possible to buy the upgrade and not install/activate it yet and Cubase will still work until I activate?
No, that’s for crossgrading TO C10Pro (from e.g. Ableton, Logic, …).
Yes, that’s how it works. Once you make the purchase, you’ll be sent the license, just don’t activate it until you’re ready.
OK. Thanks. I just wanted to be sure that the purchase wouldn’t deactivate my Cubase Pro license immediately.
What is the minimum version? Elements, artist, pro?

Yes, just wait to install it when you want is my understanding. You’ll be entitled to the Nueando 10 update too, so it ought to be possible to wait and then when available just install Nuendo 10 since major updates don’t depend on having a current version already installed.
Read the thread…

Just pretend you are purchasing Nuendo and it will list all prices for all cross grades that are available, yes?
What do you mean by „all prices for all crossgrades“? There is one crossgrade from Cubase top line version 4-10 and one crossgrade price. Really not that complicated…
I repeat my question: is update from older versions of nuendo to N8 also eligible for free update to N10 version ? I`m N5 user.
Hello Latro,
yes, the Grace Period for Nuendo 10 has already started so any Nuendo activation (Nuendo 6 and newer) that happens now until the N10 release is eligible for a free update to Nuendo 10.
All the best,
Quoted from the very first post in this thread:
Nuendo 10 update
Best of all: all purchases in the framework of this Sales offer quality for
a free update to Nuendo 10, later in Q2/2019. That means no extra payment
for the update, as the Grace Period has been extended to cover this Sales action.
Hi Luis
Thank you for your response. I just wanted to be sure. Have a nice day.
