Sound Forge Audio Studio 15 issues?

Does anyone know why Sound ForgeAS15 in not offered in Magix Store, yet 12.6 is?

Is 12.6 more stable or been made to be linked to other Magix programs better? Its an upgraded add-on, was part of a promotion for one or two of my purchases, yet when I tried to get rid of it and reload v15 (thinking that was a good thing since its newer/better), I ran into a few installation/update blocks with AMS11 until I uninstalled it. Odd... .Hmmm? Maybe simply the dreaded C++ thing at work behind the scenes?

Should I just reload 12.6 from the Store instead? Better? More Stable?

Cheers and may the Music Season be 24/7/365 !

I suspect there are two reasons for this situation.

  • The current latest release of SFAS is, I believe, 17 so 15 will have now been removed from sale.
  • SFAS 12.6 was, and I believe still is, offered as an add-on to the latest version of Music Maker. Certainly, it appears for me as a program I can download from within MM 2024.

@emmrecs I'm glad you are seeing the same in your MM2024 store... I just found that odd after figuring out that my v15 was somehow affecting the 2013 C++ for AMS11 update.

I reloaded v12.6 SFAS for now and it seems to work fine in MM2024, no conflicts or installation issues.
