I am a Cubase Elements 9.5.30 user and bought the upgrade to Cubase 9.5 Pro.
My question is simple.
When upgrading to Pro, do I need to keep Elements aswell on my pc or can I uninstall that one safely ?
Both are 64 bit versions.
yoy can uninstall it safely, so far as i know. all projects made with elements will load in pro. it are two seperate programs, with different licenses/activition. i do not think you can use both, because you bought an upgrade, so you have only now the license of pro? you can see it in your account.
The dongle was included with the Pro upgrade offer. It was a 40% off offer this month by Steinberg.
Offercode was UPGRADE18
The offer was valid until 07/15 but the code still works at this moment.
When ordering Pro you can choose between several upgrade offers, Elements, LE and Artist was one of them.
Where did you see this offer was only valid till 07/15? You’re apparently the only person who has seen the offer advertised in any way if that’s true…but maybe you’re confusing the upgrade with the update offer that ended on 07/16.
Not a problem…just wouldn’t want any user hoping to update Cubase to think they can still get a deal that is ended.
To be clear update is from earlier version to later version so couldn’t work for your purchase even if it was still valid. upgrade is from lower to higher version.
Well, I don’t know if it’s a problem with marketing at Steinberg but reading this thread, I tried just for fun to write UPGRADE18 in the voucher section of the web store and my upgrade from Ele to Artist went from 300$ to 180$CAD. Bought it!!
