Pro X7 - Only 2 Skins??

Recently paid To upgrade to Pro X 7 from 6. Have Used Cameo skin for a long time, since this was the default skin in 6. From what I understand, Now there are only 2 skins in 7! Had I known I would not have "updated" and paid for 7. I paid for an upgrade, not a downgrade! Have been a loyal Magix user for many years , and have used a combination of program skins for my projects throughout my LOYAL Financial purchases/support.

@RoRo13 I believe it's possible to just copy the old skins into Pro X7's folder. But I'm not sure how compatible these skins are with the new version.

I'm trying a trial version of Samp 7
- I also like working in Camo skins (Pro X6 Suite) and in the new version I miss this one very much in the new (7) version
- there are some interesting improvements in version 7, but I don't know if it's worth 299, - Euro (for upgrade)?!

@Premysl-Haas If you want to buy a new version each year and already own all the bonus software that comes with Samplitude, a subscription would be cheaper. Of course, you will lose access if you cancel the subscription, but it's an alternative if you don't want to pay the high upgrade prices. I don't think that the new version is worth the upgrade cost if you already own version X6. I always suggest to skip two or three versions to justify the upgrade price.

It seems there will be bug fix updates to Pro X6 as long as many people create support tickets. The users in the official Samplitude forum suggest to create many tickets to get the last bugs out of Pro X6. If this happens it should be a pretty good version to be used a long time before you need to upgrade again.

Somehow I thought about it, Samplitude has been my main DAW for many years. But I don't use the bonus software much, I don't need SoundForge, because I have Samplitude :-). And Pro X6 includes Camo skin, which I like.
The new features of Pro X 7 are interesting, but not so crucial and important against version 6. I'll wait for the next version, I hope it will have a Camo skin.
Thank You, Magix.

@ruffrida

Are you aware there is a dedicated forum for Samplitude Pro here?

Given the nature of your question and because very few, if any, users of Samplitude Pro visit or post here I suspect you would be best advised to register at and repost your question there.

yes. well aware. but i have the best mixes on earth using the plugins and mixer i been using. i have 2004 2005 2014 2015 2020 . i just thought the other ones were a waste of time to buy. i dont want to keep re-learning how to use a music program.

@ruffrida Skins can usually be changed in the system settings. Are you still using Music Studio 2015?

ruffrida wrote on 10/28/2022, 1:54 AM

yesterday i uploaded 2004 and 2005 on this computer. im using 2004. but the problem is now i cant use the plug ins that i had on all of my songs. i dont like the mixers on 2015 2017 2020

@ruffrida Are you using the internal plugins that came with the program? Otherwise you need to install all missing plugins first.

ruffrida wrote on 10/28/2022, 3:15 AM

External plug ins that i have been using. i dont want to use any others. the ones i have been using always seemed to work very very very well. i didnt know that a new computer would off set my mixes and plug in usage.

SP. wrote on 10/28/2022, 3:21 AM

@ruffrida Okay, that explains your problems. After you installed all missing plugins and configured the program to load them, your songs should load fine again.

ruffrida wrote on 10/28/2022, 5:21 AM

im still trying to do that. i hope i can get it to work. or i will try to download windows 7 or something on this computer.,

SP. wrote on 10/28/2022, 5:27 AM

@ruffrida Windows 7 will not bring back your plugins. Do you still have access to your previous computer?

ruffrida wrote on 10/30/2022, 5:56 AM

i took the hard drives out of the computer and i use a hard drive dock

@ruffrida Ok, then you should be able to find out which plugins you used by looking into your old VST plugins folders.
