I am holding back on S1 7 till there's a stable version. I've been using 6.5.0 till now cause i found it to be the most stable version yet for my works. But i recently need to update to later versions because i bought the Presonus Quantum ES4 and it integrates better with 6.6.2 and later versions. So I installed the 6.6.2 r2r version . While S1 itself gets activated the other extensions like CTC-1 and VUMeter won't activate. Not even get installed. When i try to install them by double clicking them S1 says they don't have a valid digital signature. And when i try to activate them by choosing or dropping the license files, it says invalid license file. Even presonus hub won't authorized except for couple seconds and after that the license file in the License Store folder gets removed on it's own. I followed all the instructions on r2r.txt it still won't work . After that i tried 6.5 and it works just fine with extensions and all . Any fixes?
I installed s1 on a fresh win 10 Pro 22h2 . I7 12 gen .

 

That new method by R2R doesn't work for me either, I can't even get in the program after removing pretty much everything except my settings. I'm using the old crack on 7.0.2, as it still works and loads the old extensions just fine. Feels just as stable as SO6 for me.

If you want to stay on SO6 but still have the updates, get this release in the sister site: PreSonus Studio One 6 Professional v6.6.0 Incl Keygen-R2R

Just apply the crack from this release into the newest PreSonus Studio One 6 v6.6.4 RETAIL-R2R, and it should work fine with all your previous extensions. If you lost them, just generate new keys using the keygen from 6.6.0 and install the extensions the same way we did for years.

In short, you can ignore the newest Presonus Sphere Manager stuff R2R released and still use the software the way you did before, but still updated.

 

What's your review after using 7? Does the old extensions work in 7 retail?

 

Yes, I only had to reactivate SO7 and the extensions, but they stayed there just fine. Overall, it's the same as SO6 for me, most of the stuff they added I don't even care about. You can install it and give it a try, it shouldn't replace the previous versions. I think newer projects won't work in older versions, but your old stuff should still load just fine. Just make sure to save as a new version if you don't want to risk making old projects incompatible after saving.

 

How's the performance and optimization of 7 compared to 6.5 ? And overall stability should i try 6.6.4 or go to 7?

 

No valid signature means :

1. If you're using v7 and tried to install older CTC-1 released by R2R, that one is patched and wont be compatible with v7, need to use the newer one (inside 170GB release by funtime)

2. If you're using v6 and tried to install the newer CTC-1 (inside 170GB release by funtime), that one isn't patched and v6 needs the patched version, the older ones released by R2R year 2022.

TLDR; v7 use the new CTC-1, v6 use the old CTC-1. Apply to all extensions.

 

I used the older ctc-1 from r2r with the 6.6.2 r2r . Still didn't work

 

Pretty much the same, I don't feel it's any better or worse. In fact, I felt disappointed in how much nothing really changed from 6 to 7 when I'm mixing.

 

I really miss the time when Presonus were more into making workflow better for the Engineers .

 

Then should i update to 6.6.4 ?

 

You could try it and just stick to the old cracking method since SO6 doesn't have the splice and stem unmix features. You won't have to reactivate every 30 days and everything will work the same as always.
