No problem Jim. Gayle was giving me the evil "it's dinner time" eye. So I had to exit fast, lol. You DJs have a hard enough job as it is and I appreciate it, so I'll never complain. Thanks for the...

I had a nice desktop gaming computer sitting around doing nothing after both of my daughters upgraded. Since I have been in a self-imposed musical retirement, I figured I would finally relinquish my Alienware Windows 7 (yes that old) desktop I was using for recording. As I am installing my trusty Cubase Artist v6 from 2010 or 2011, it tells me it is too old to even register. I figured ok now what? Previously I had updated to version 6.5 so I must need to do that.There is an update link in the Help drop down in the application so I clicked the link. Much like my registration attempt, the link was 404 which means, not found.
I did some research on the Steinberg Website and found some forum posts that said Steinberg basically just killed off the old versions. As someone who works in software development, I get the money grab but it still pisses me off. If you want to install Windows 95 on an old PC, would you expect it to say, "Nope Sorry, You Need To Update To Windows 10" and here is the amount? No you paid for that version and it should work! In their defense, Artist 6 was only "supported" on Windows 7 but I read post where people did get it to work on Windows 10 prior to all of the updates.
Not sure of what the outcome of this will be. My Presonus Audiobox 44VSL has been discontinued but I noticed the drivers are recent. Maybe it will still work!
This ends my rant!

Misery loves company Jim. Thanks for being on board. I think the Presonus Audiobox will be ok but I need to drop almost $200 to upgrade Cubase. Normally I would not mind but I swear I have dropped around $20k in the last 4 month on various things and the hits keep coming!
-Water Heater Replaced
-Go Kart Engine Replacement, wheels, brakes (there is more)
-Electric Upgrade to my computer room in a few days - I keep tripping the breaker because I have 40+ things plugged into one room
-Hardwood floors going into the last two carpeted areas on our main floor
-Basement Game Room pretty much complete
I went through the same stuff when I upgraded my recording computer.
