Hey there,

Bought regular Cubase 16bit 3.05 in January 1997, used with Windows 95OSR2, and my parallel dongle is... red.
This was before VST came out.
Ever since, good old Cubase 2.8 works like a charm with the dongle, under Windows 98SE.

Also got a discounted "educational" VST 5 Score later, with the blue dongle, in hope it would allow VST32 to run, but nope IIRC.

Great site, btw.

hey there;
i have the blue one and the logic dongle, but no red dongle!!
they are very hard to find now!!

New addition to the family : a Cubase Score red dongle, scored for a few euros. Pun intended. :P
Works like a charm with Cubase Score 3.05, still 16bit.

So now I can run genuine Cubase on both of my Win98SE retro-computers, one old P3-600MHz/256Meg laptop with a MOTU Midi Flyer 2x2 parallel interface, and the even older but rebuilt P3-1000MHz/512Meg beast with internal Winman 4x4/s & Audiophile2496 cards and AMT-8 serial Midi interface. Both systems exhibit the same ~2% MIDI jitter, and slightly inacurate BPM.

;D

chrisNova777:
im going to be getting my hands on a green one soon so i can try to test when that happens!
hopefully soon!
