Not sure it makes much difference to me, I'm still using 5.5!

I'm on Cubase 11, but I still have a hard copy of Cubase 4 with dongle in my drawer.
It's been there years. LOL

I just worry it will go to a subscription based thing
The "free" and elements versions don't require a dongle.
I wouldn't mind a subscription service as long as it's worthwhile, AND that my current specs can handle.

Full version of Cubase 5.5 - I have a purple dongle that has to be plugged in when I use it, so I don't know what you're all banging on about.
What happens with newer versions of cubase has nothing to do with older versions.
Besides, they said *years* ago they were stopping support for older versions of cubase but it's still running fine and no doubt there'll be work arounds if there are software conflicts in newer versions of windows.

It's a pain in the arse, especially if I can't find it 'cause I need the front USB port - all the back ones used too! Should just look for a crack online and do away with it!!
