Subject:Upgrade MusicStudio to ACID 4?
Posted by: gus2150

I have ScreenBlast MusicStudio, which works fine, but I always like to work with the latest version of any program. Is there a way to upgrade my MusicStudio to the latest version of ACID 4? I'm talking money here. In other words is there a less espensive upgrade available as opposed to outright buying ACID 4?

I haven't heard of one. ACID 4 does a lot more. Are you sure you want to be that involved?

OK, if no reasonable cost upgrade, then no, I don't want to get that involved. I'll just use MusicStudio. Thanks!

Upgrade any version of Screenblast ACID to ACID Pro ($300) should work.

Oops! No, I don't want ACID Pro 4, I want the comsumer version, Screenblast ACID 4. I found the upgrade which reads:
"Upgrade ACID Music to Screenblast ACID – from $29.95
Upgrade any version of ACID Music software to Screenblast ACID 4.0 software."
But when I enter the Screenblast MusicStudio serial number (off the CD package), it does not accept it with this message:
"The serial number you entered is not a valid serial number for this upgrade purchase. Please try again."
I double-checked the serial number by opening my MusicStudio program and clicking on Help/About and it is exactly correct. However, below the serial number line, there is another line of 9 alpha/numeric characters. But if I try to insert these into the serial number field, I can't. The cursor will not move beyond the last digit of the original serial number.
At any rate, I am unable to get past the Qualifying Serial Number and thus cannot order the upgrade.
Again, my existing copy in Help/About shows my product as:
Screenblast ACID Deluxe 2.0
Version 2.0b (Build 54)
What am I doing wrong?

Bumped this up so gus2150's post doesn't get buried. (By default, only 10 topics are shown per page.)

I'd feel guilty for burying it. ;o)

I'm not sure I need or even want to upgrade, but I'd still like to be able to do so. Please look at my post on 12/18/2003 9:34:37 (above). Thanks!

gus2150:
I see what you mean, I can't figure out a path. I sent an e-mail to Customer Service asking if there is an upgrade even available.

Sorry I didn't understand what you wanted before.

I've been told your upgrade falls under the Music -> Screenblast ACID 4.0 upgrade but we're not sure why the serial number should fail. If you are interested in buying just call or e-mail Customer Service: 800.577.6642.

I've the same problem; also with Siren that is in musicstudio.
I'm thinking I hear product support on this so I'll check back to see if there's any update.

Hello Dan,

You mean the "ignore this user" link next to the poster's username? That's just to squelch those that are annoying you. (You won't see their posts.)

HTH,
Iacobus
