Is this any different from the Beta we downloaded from your site? Should I install this if I have the 5.0.5.0 Beta already installed?

I recommend to download the final version from Syncrosoft´s website. It is optimized and was tested extensively, so it should work smoothly.

Best,

since the official version 5.0.5.x is out now the beta is no longer available in our user area now

I went to Syncrosoft's download page, but didn't see 5.0.5.0. ????

LCC 5.0.5.0 is available here: http://syncrosoft.com/downloads/
make sure your browser is not set to chache pages or set your preferences to *retrieve content everytime visiting* (or similar wording) or refresh the page several times

Thanks, the page was stuck in my cache and wouldn't come up with the new version until I cleared it [8-)] Weird. Got it now!

Thanks to Maya and cm for all this info!

Quick tip for mattdean:
You can quickly force your browser to refresh by choosing the <reload> option - it clears the cache and loads the latest version of a web page in one click (...usually...)

Thanks Colin,

Actually, I was aware of that, and that's what I did - out of habit, but to no avail. I think it's a Safari thing, happens once and a while, but I forget. Always good to get a reminder.

The update is MUCH better! It scans licenses in seconds!

Thanks!

Hi

...with Synchrosoft 5.0.5.0:
Fresh booted PC (3,2GHz, P4, Asus P4800SE) in Cubase SX3.?newest

The very first Vienna Instrument needs 1'25" - bevore > 9'
Later on a new VI needs 6" - before 10 - 20"
A second VI-instance 1" - before 3 - 4"

Disadvantage: No more coffee break [:(]

Looks like the PC versions are still working better than the MAC versions.

I had 7 minute MAC start-up times and 2 Minute Windows start times (on a MacBook Pro) with the previous software.

i haven't checked the Windows start -up but the MAC start-up has dropped from 7 minutes to 2 minutes 30 seconds a significant improvement but- still 90 seconds slower than PC.

well, i for myself am not surprised that PCs or intelMacs are faster than PPC-macs ... the processor design of the G5 (aka PPC970) is basically from 2002 and has not changed since then, whereas we saw several generations passing by during that time in the intel-world, so it doesn't take me wonder that intel-based machines are faster on almost all tasks ourdays.

there are some jobs, where a G5 still beats intel, generally everything which makes intensive use of the altivec-extension like rendering DV or quicktime-movies
christian

After watching the numbers fall over the last few weeks, i'm astonished how quickly the VI loads now. Mac or PC, i can remember much longer loading times for lesser VST's without CP not that long ago. The work and effort that must have gone into getting this to work even better, beggars belief.
My how the technology flies.........

Now, Christian M seems to have gone quiet, so.....

How's MIR coming along?

Alex.

p.s. Just Kidding!

Yes, 5.0.5.1 is different from 5.0.5.0 according to Syncrosoft and they strongly recommend to update to version 5.0.5.1.

Dear Customers,

although we withdrew the License Control Installer 5.0.5.0 just recently
from our download page and replaced it with an updated version 5.0.5.1
just today, it turned out the issue wasn't solved by this installer
regarding all aspects.

Consequently, we will withdraw the Syncrosoft License Control installer
version 5.0.5.1 as well and replace it by a *proper* version tomorrow.

We sincerily apologize for any inconveniences (...).

What happened is that Syncrosoft has withdrawed version 5.0.5.1 also shortly after I posted it here.
Hopefully a final version of 5.0.5.x will be available tomorrow. I am sorry for the confusion.

Thanks Maya - just reminds me of ANY software's 'updates' are really suspect until everyone else tries them and works the bugs out. I am usually a 'late comer' on updates for this reason. I just don't have time to fiddle with computers. [:'(]
