I don't feel the need to get me any of that. I have a job so i have money to buy legal software. I will contact my local dealer to check what this message means. I will let you know.
I de-installed cubase AND pulsar2. Then installed pulsar2 first and then cubase. Still the same message. I also checked the dongle but it's tightly connected to the port.
... and it´s still also a question of philosphy! i have bought all the stuff i´m using, but i´m lucky to have this possibility to try and check cracks all the time. and: at least in such a moment it could bring you back days of processing if you would have at least a cubase crack to try working your machine. it can take weeks till you have the dongleproblem (if it is) fixed. that´s the way cracks are doing goods to us. i know people are working on developing softwarez and they have to earn money with it-therefore we have to buy it! and i do too ... mostly! )
