And where exactly do you chose a VST Transit username? I find nowhere to submit this on my MySteinberg account…

Clicking “Create MySteinberg Account Here” brings me to steinbergs web front page.

It downloads the latest version when I open VST Transit and the latest version is presented as 1.0.0

This looks completely untested to me and I realize I’m betatesting functionality I paid for. Not a good feeling.

The VST Transit user name is to be set exactly once when you login to VST Transit for the first time. So when your mySteinberg credentials are accepted and you have registered Cubase 8.5 with your mySteinberg account, the very first time you will be asked for a VST Transit user name. This is not registered with mySteinberg , it is the user name for VST Transit under which you can be found by other users, so you should provide a new, meaningful name here. It does not relate to the mySteinberg account or the mySteinberg email or user name, but solely to the VST Transit membership. As said, you will provide your username only once ever, and it can not be changed thereafter.

Thank you, here is why I find your answer puzzling.

How do I login to VST Transit before I have a username when it does not allow me to use my email adress? …the “MySteinberg Email” can’t be used since ‘@’ signs can’t be entered into the MySteinberg Email field as a login name, my email unfortunately, like many others, contains an ‘@’ sign.

I also find it confusing that it downloads and runs VST Transit version 1.0.0 when others here talk about newer patch versions of the software. Perhaps there was a bug in version 1.0.0 that does not accept an ‘@’ sign, and it has been fixed since, but I can’t tell since this is the version my registered cubase 8.5 keeps downloading and running when I start VST Transit.

Sorry I don’t get you either.
When you start VST Transit, a page should appear “Log in to VST Transit”. The top field is “MySteinberg E-Mail”, right? You can enter a @ charcater there, all else would be very strange.
Then after you logged in there, and given that you have not done so yet, you will be led to a second page where you are asked to provide a user Name for VST Transit.
Did VST Transit succeed to ever download a new version? It should, and you should not cancel this (if that is possible at all). Click on the bottom right “VST Transit” text and an about box should come up. On the bottom, the version number is displayed. What does it say?
I find it particularily confusing that you say “it keeps downloading”, do you mean it attempts to download every time? If so, does it not succeed to do so? That might explain a lot, but then the question is if you messed around with the installation or why your system prevents the download to succeed because of whatever reasons. I guess there should be a message then?
