Lost my LE in an HD crash. (and all the free plugins that I'd downloaded over two years) Can't find my LE disc, so I guess it's time to upgrade. I have a lot of projects on my backup drive that I still need.

I'm concerned that my 1.7 Ghz laptop isn't going to be able to handle any of the new 5/studio/essential DAWs since they spec a 2.0 minimum.

I never really ran CPU intensive stuff on LE- never had a crash or slowdown in the two years that I used it. Anyone have any info on the new cubase on an under-spec'd compter?

So that's one of my concerns. The other is in making the choice between the three levels that they offer. Seems like the only thing that I would really use in 5 would be the convolution reverb, but then I never really wound up using the free downloaded convolution reverbs that I had downloaded.

I would have fun playing with the loop and beat making stuff, but it will be a long time before I will want to branch out into anything beyond recording non-digital stuff. All my keyboards are analog or acoustic.

Or... does anyone have an old copy of LE? Was there a driver for the firepod that I need too? I'd rather not have to shell out for a new DAW, and LE suited my needs fine...

LE replacement

Hello.

I lost my LE disk once. I had gotten it with a Presonus interface. I contacted, via email, Presonus, and they immediately emailed out to me a new version of LE 4. They didn't respond to the email, but I received the disc pretty quickly in the US Mail.

Hmmm. Worth a try... :)

Not sure I ever registered anything with anyone, though. The firepod was from Sam Ash...
 
I upgraded from Cubase LE to Essential and like it a lot.

I'm almost positive that I still have my LE disk around here. If you want to borrow it, I'll ship it to you.
