Also, consider the IAPs such as the Waves plugins etc.

Those are available in LE though, right?

They are, but it proves (as I found out) that they’re not (and I see no technical reason why not) transferable if you bought and upgraded the LE of a version, to the ‘Normal’ of the next major version. The LE owner is definitely a second-class and poorer category, not catered for in a hurry, and seemingly not as important at all, and yet, no indication of this was given at the start. Take my word for it.

Hi @u0421793,

You can freely transfer your Cubasis LE 2 instrument and effect in-app purchases, these are the steps:

I have a Line 6 Sonic Port, which can’t plug into my USB-C iPad. This means I can’t activate my Cubasis LE on this iPad. I wrote to Cubasis about it, but they said it wasn’t their problem.

Try using a usb hub.

The Sonic Port only comes with Lightning and 30-pin dock connectors. Can’t plug it into a hub.

Not sure if that helps, but you can either use the cable from the VX version or solder a USB connector to your cable.

Back on topic:
I was also happy with my unlocked Cubasis 2 LE, so for me getting the IAP for Cubasis 3 LE is more a question if I really need it, I have faith in Steinberg to support it as well as the non LE version.

Yeah this is how I bought Cubasis LE2 upgrade and will be the same way I buy LE3 upgrade, debating right now whether to wait and get it next time around. The whole compatibility upgrade quagmire of iAP for Daws in iOS means I don't buy these any more, stopped doing that after buying Fabfilters in Auria. I'd prefer if developers would not release internal plugins for these apps and make them Audio units.

But I think seeing as all software on iOS has a limited shelf life, this is the best way to buy it imo

Just to answer my own concern. I downloaded LE 3, unlocked it with an eligible iRig interface, and then purchased the upgrade. I then downloaded LE 3 to a second device. On launch it asked me to plug in an interface or run in demo mode. I clicked demo mode, then restored purchases and it did without ever having to connect the iRig.

Hey @LFS,

I downloaded ALL the unlocks in Cubasis 2 LE. I was trying to test Cubasis 3 LE but it didn’t transfer the IAPs. I “bought” one but it charged me. Please advise. I followed the steps In the website but it didn’t work.

I was also unable to transfer the one IAP that I have from Cubasis 2 to Cubasis LE3. I didn't get an option to transfer.

Hey Lars,

Still no luck. Followed the steps but same result. It’s only restoring one (the one that charged me) when I bought them all.

Note in my case I had Cubasis 2 (not LE) - and am trying to transfer to Cubasis 3 LE.

Is it possible that flow is not supported?

This was exactly my concern. Love this forum.
