Cubase Dongles (which Color? Which Version?)

<< < (4/6) > >>

wwinfrey:
Are the red dongles locked to specific flavors of Cubase? If you have a red Cubase Score dongle, will it say, work with Cubase Audio XT 3.0, etc. ?

Hi!
I have a green dongle for VST 3.55r3 PC.
I can use this dongle with Cubase 3.05 on Windows 3.1! :)

wwinfrey:
I am considering buying a German version of Cubase Score for PC with the red dongle 3.0. What versions of Cubase will this red dongle enable? My apologies if I am sounding like a broken record.

Any version of Cubase standard and Score from 2.8 up to 3.05 from early 1997, on any legacy Windows from 3.1 up to Millennium. I believe Cubase Audio won't work, but there's a cracked DOSBox version floatting around should you need it (just a matter of replacing the cubase.386 vxd file in C:\windows\system)

No early VST version will work AFAIK. It needs the green then dark blue dongles.

Cubase 2.x is the tightest in my experience, if that's important to you. But 3.0x brings more modules (e.g. arpegiator).

See original post from our host.

PC LPT Red Dongle : 16bit Cubase v2.5 up to v3.05, Win3.11/Win9x/WinME.
Flavour will depend on the label on the dongle (a regular "Cubase" dongle won't allow to run the "Score" version)
A "Score" dongle will run any version of the program.

PC LPT Green Dongle : 32bit Cubase VST 3.5/3.7. Can run VST/24 depending on the label, and  also runs the previous 16bit version as well (ref: post from articoci above).

PC LPT Blue Dongle : 32bit Cubase VST 5 up to v5.2b, Win9x/Win10x64.
If it's labelled as "Score", it will not allow to run Cubase VST/32, just VST 5 and VST 5 Score.

The Blue dongle may also allow to run the 16bit versions, but don't quote me on that. I don't quite remember if it did.
