Cubase SX for Mac OS X is Shipping

An anonymous reader writes "Steinberg's flagship Cubase SX is shipping now, with support for CoreAudio, CoreMidi, VST Plugin support, Rewire, and REXort.
Now only ProTools and Digital Performer are left on the Mac OS 9 side. When do they follow?" Well, ProTools for Mac OS X has already been announced.

Since I'm not going to pay $130 for a point upgrade to OS X that was announced a couple of months after I bought 10.1,

So, if they had designated it 11.0 for the same exact amount of improvement and feature set, you would buy it?

To me, it's what's inside that matters, not what they choose to call it.

Sorry you were so late to the OSX game to begin with.

Since I'm not going to pay $130 for a point upgrade to OS X that was announced a couple of months after I bought 10.1, it looks like I don't get a Cubase upgrade for another year or so.

The reason Cubase needs 10.2 is because Core Audio was not finished when 10.1 was released.

So you might as well get Jaguar now, which runs great BTW. The next upgrade (10.2.5?) should be free.

Also, 10.2 is not a "point" upgrade, you are basing this on your own idea of how Apple should name OS releases, and not their idea. When the seond number changes, it's a major update. 10.2.1 is a point release, as will be the next few updates.
