Something wrong with pricing, as all upgrades cost the same as ... the full version.

Yeah, have to be logged in... Still, can't say I'm happy about what I'm seeing...
 
I own both Studio One 3 and Notion 5.  Here I was thinking they were already tightly integrated, and now I learn I need Notion 6 for them to be really tightly integrated!

I've uninstalled S1v3, but still use Notion 5, so I picked this up. Sloooooow download. All of the sound libraries have been updated, so they need to be downloaded as well. Six bundles, each around 1-1.5 GB. Also slooooooow. I d/l'd the S1v3 v3.3.0 update as well, but don't plan to install it...at the moment, at least.

John, you're speaking of the included sounds, correct?  Not the expansion pack?  (The one that costs $300).

Re: Notion Updated to Version 6 2016/08/25 14:28:30 (permalink)
Correct.
 
There appears to be a large number of new instruments that are grayed out. That must be the expansion pack you mention. The six bundled instrument installers are the same file names as in v5, but they are different, and need to be redownloaded.
 
I totally uninstalled v5 before installing v6, including manually deleting some remaining directories and files. v6 came up fine and ran an existing score no problemo. Haven't checked anything else yet.
 
I bought the v5 expansion pack and am redownloading the individual .prox files now. These should still work with v6. I'll update this post once I get them d/l'd and installed.
 
Good news on one front, though. The Harpsichord instrument now shows up! Never did in v5!

Re: Notion Updated to Version 6 2016/08/25 17:05:21 (permalink)
OK, this was weird. I downloaded all of the expansion .PROX files and placed them in the Notion 6 | Sounds | Expansion directory, but all showed up grayed out. So I double-clicked on each expansion prox, but was told it was already installed. ???
 
Solution?
 
Notion needs to copy the PROX files to the Expansion folder itself. I moved all of the expansion files back to my download folder and double-clicked on each one in turn (if Notion isn't loaded, installing the first prox file will load it; leave it loaded). Notion copied the prox file to the Expansion folder and did whatever to let Notion know that the sounds were there. Now I have 100% of available Notion sounds actually available to me!
 
When doing this, I don't think it's then necessary to do a Help | Software Activation | Receive Licenses. Well, I didn't.
 
Looking forward to trying the new, very cool looking, drum notation entry feature!

For me, the upgrade price is listed as $149.  I don't think so.  I'm gonna have to see a detailed What's New/Fixed list with a whole buncha testimonials before Presonus gets another nickel from me.

Mine was $49. I don't think you're on the right page. 
 
https://shop.presonus.com/products/software/notion-prods/notion-upgradescrossgrade
 
Notion 3/4/5 to 6 upgrade $49.
 
You can even upgrade from Progression to Notion 6 for $99.

Yep, that's better ... still not good enough until I know what's been done.  I don't use Studio One, so I'
ll need more info.  Having the About box show 6 instead of 5 isn't worth 50 bux to me.

I wish I could tell you that this was easy to find, but it took a bunch of clicks. Lots of beautiful photos and marketing blather to get through to find the link to this page at the bottom of another page.

Also note that you'll need to reset the Global tuning value (for a concert standard A) from 442 to 440 Hz. Don't know what, but Notion 6 sets the value to 440.2. Maybe that's what it actually is. IDK.

I've got 4, what's the incentive to go to 6?
 
I'm probably missing the obvious but what I really want is to one or two click drop a chord onto the piano roll as opposed to entering the 3 to 5 notes in by hand. All I can see is it puts the chord visual in the middle of the staff but won't put the notes on the staff itself.

I can't believe they still haven't added the ability to draw midi CCs. It would be an instant upgrade if they had that, but as it is I think I'll wait for 7 or until they add it to 6. Everything else seem ,meh, to me and although the upgrade isn't too expensive it doesn't seem like much of an upgrade either.

I see that grace and ghost notes are at least mentioned.  Not being able to start a slide (gliss) from a grace note is a big one for me.  Is that possible in version 6?
 
The rewire improvements also look promising.  I tried and tried and tried to get a rewire configuration to work the way I wanted it to.

I just tried starting a slide from a grace note in v6 to test this for you, and the answer?
