These mastering programs just do not get as thoroughly tested by 3rd party plugin developers as the big multi-track DAWs. I don't think WaveLab has any more 3rd party plugin issues than Sequoia, Pyramix, Triumph, HOFA, or Sound Blade. It is strange but for those who have been following WaveLab for a long time, it's how it is. Wavelab has its benefits for certain tasks, but is still lacking in several areas. Processing is much smoother in Nuendo, plug ins react snappy and external processing (digital hardware) is already set up.ĥ0% of my work is multi-channel based and Wavelab can't process with multi-channel plug ins.

I do some editing and sometimes Mastering in Wavelab, but shifted most mastering work to Nuendo, which I have anyway, and made a mastering template for it. Mostly problems are sluggish graphics etc (on Mac Mojave). Too many plugin developers don't take the time to test in WaveLab.The funny thing is: plug ins running absolutely flawless in Nuendo 10.x and Cubase 10.5.x cause different problems in Wavelab 10 until today.

Until the plugin developer can fix the issue, using the VST2 version instead of VST3 or vise versa can be temporary fix. If you post the crash report on the public forum, PG can usually analyze it and help pinpoint the issue. Normally crashes are from 3rd party plugins. Is it that hard to deal with this company?ĬdltI can't speak to this as it's more on the admin side, but I would suggest posting this experience on the WaveLab forum so that somebody at Steinberg is sure to see it and respond. Kept trying - verified, copied right out of my password manager. Use my new password (the one they just let me in on not 15 mins ago). So went to purchase the upgrade - had to reinitialise my password. I created one, purchased Elements - so should be good?. Worse, no shipping confirmation, in the dark. I'm receiving packages all the time from all sorts of places - what's up with that? I cannot activate it without this silly USB licenser - and the text in my confirmation email says that delivery of USB licenser is delayed or may not happen at all due to COVID.
