Nuendo 6.5 announced

Hello,

you are definitely within the GracePeriod, but the update itself is not yet available. That’s why the system
cannot update your license yet. It will happen once the update is available.

Thanks,
Timo

Is this a free upgrade? Highly unlikely i guess, but having invested 50 copies of Nuendo 6 in our classroom and studio, we are quite nervous.

The upgrade should be free, considering how tough of an experience it has been for us loyal Nuendo users.

I don’t know about it being free…I just think it shouldn’t be more then the
Cubase 7.0-7.5 update…$50.00
Especially if some of the Nu6.0 issues are still there.
If the issues are indeed fixed, I’d be willing to pay quite a bit more.

I love the way N6.5 has been ‘announced’ just at the end of Q2 as if that somehow met the previously stated Q2 deadline for the actual release of the update!

Now we have an ‘expected’ release in Q3, although that word introduces a big question about whether or not it will happen - it could even be Q4.

I even heard stories that they wanna wait until Venus lines up with Pluto, just to ensure the Karma is “right”.

Until the list of bug fixes is available it doesn’t really matter. If the showstoppers haven’t been fixed, there ain’t much point considering an upgrade.

I don’t think it’s appropriate for a moderator to throw out jokes, when half of their users are worried about the future of their favorite DAW (Mix Console, Control Room, clicke-ty-click +++).

Even though I’m not offended about it, it will certainly devaluate your (the moderators) credability.

So be careful not to “clown” up this part of the forum, like on the Cubase side. Just sayin’.

Thank you for voicing my real intentions iBM, I’m sure this is even more helpful as my Karma remark.

I just want to point out that there is no secret strategy, conspericy, economic ripp-off or “let’s annoy our customers” behind the postponing of the release. There are many things that need to be synchronized when putting out a new version, even if it’s only a .x version. So the reason why the release date is shifted is not because of a trival thing.

The only thing you accomplish with the “tik-tok”, “… so many days left”, “are they gonna wait until the last day …?”, “Missed the release data again …” comments is that the Powers That Be will be more and more reluctant to actually announce a timeframe. Even though it is always announced as “to be expected”.

I actually found this really funny…

I did not find it funny, as the way Steinberg is ruining their daws really makes me sad.

The difference between ‘is expected to be’ and ‘will be’ is about the same as the distance between Venus and Pluto. It’s a very long way.

I just hope that this side of the forum will NOT end up like that one on the other side (Cubase side, for those who didn’t get it :wink:)
Mod damn it, I miss the old Nuendo forum.

Hallo. Still waiting for the “fix list”. I have problems with Nuendo on a daily basis (even with just open or close the program- takes years).
We need to know asap what we are getting on the 6.5

Well, then I suggest you try to troubleshoot the problem and/or call support, because this is clearly a problem with your setup/system.
If it would be a bug, then every user would experience the same problem.

Quick, someone tell my clients that my DAW is getting ruined and I won’t be able to use it to make money anymore. Hyperbole! Hyperbole! :open_mouth:

That is not true - Looking at all of the most recent N6 and N5 update announcements, they ‘announce the release of…’. or ‘’ bla, bla… is made available’ - that is not the same as ‘Steinberg has announced Nuendo 6.5, the upcoming new version of Nuendo, expected to be released in Q3 2014.’. This announcement was made at the last minute just so that something was announced in Q2 !

Is there a chance that the recording error will be fixed in this update. It is annoying that Nuendo 6 cannot be used for recordings anymore, since it often stops recording. It is particularly embarrassing in an ADR session, when I have to explain to clients that that last great take was not fully recorded as Nuendo stopped recording in the middle of it. But Nuendo 5.5 does not have the great ADR features.

Have no idea what you are talking about Max.
If this was a bug, then this forum would be flooded by people complaining about the same problem.
Try to find a patter, clues, repro, … anything that can help to identify the problem.

Fredo

I posted that here when Nuendo 6 came out and got some feedback from people experiencing the same thing. So it seems to be a bug. I only have this with Nuendo 6. Nuendo 5.5 records just fine.

Best,

Max
