Maybe wait a bit. I have one friend running it, but I've hit some snags.
First, there is nowhere I could find on the Presonus site to buy an upgrade, only full price. Odd. I don't have Sphere.
So, I bought the upgrade ($150) from Sweetwater. Went back to Presonus, but the Register Your Software screen in My Account just hangs.
I have support messages sent in to Sweetwater and Presonus.

I don't own this Matt, but I am curious if they put out a new version to add features or just because they could like SO many software companies do.

There are many new features. The one I think they are featuring most is a video track.

The video track looks really amazing. Hopefully, they fixed that offset problem with 5.

Thanks, Brian. I could not find that, and several others said the same on Facebook. We were insulted for our inability to find it, not a good position for the company to take.
Support is helping me now, so I expect to get it running shortly.

Yes I know I could not find it either. They don't make it easy to find that's for sure. I just did a search for upgrade in the software section.

On a slightly different take...with the new version is it now time for me to switch from Cubase to Studio One? I've been carefully studying Studio One each version update for several years, thinking that one day I would switch when it got good enough to do everything that Cubase can do, because a lot of my friends say it is improving at a faster rate than Cubase. I've had Cubase since the beginning (first on an Atari ST!!!) over 30 years ago, but the user interface now looks and acts and quacks like a relic of the last century compared to the way Studio One does.

I've had Cubase since the beginning (first on an Atari ST!!!) over 30 years ago, but the user interface now looks and acts and quacks like a relic of the last century compared to the way Studio One does. I go back to the Atari ST days as well and was even a tech on Atari. I was a longtime Cakewalk user and I also own Reaper but prefer Studio One. I switched to Studio One when it was version 2 and have not looked back. The drag and drop everything and how simple it was to use sold me years ago. Each major revision adds lots of user requested things. There are lots of videos out there to watch if you want to learn more about the features. Groove 3 already has Studio One guru Eli Krantzberg for a complete walk-through of Presonus's Studio One 6! Of course a DAW is everyone's personal choice to what suits their workflow. I think you can download a free trial to check it out.

I'm a decades-long user of Cakewalk Pro Audio ---> SONAR, and rather than follow it to BandLab I used Mixcraft a little then converted to Studio One after trying demos of a bunch of DAWs.

Happened to me too. I just kept getting a little pop up window with a message that I needed to enter the serial number of the product I was upgrading. Where? What I finally figured out was that you have to click on the v5 product link in your PreSonus account. There's an Upgrade button on that page. Click on that, and you'll be able to enter an upgrade serial number. Convoluted. Note to European members... Best Service may have a slightly lower price (139 €), but many people were reporting that B.S. were unable to provide serial numbers (may have run out or may have had an IT glitch). The issue may have been fixed by now. I purchased the upgrade through Thomann. Slightly more expensive (145 €, including 20% VAT), but I already had an account and have purchased numerous items from them with no problems. They issued me a serial number immediately. It took me longer to register it with PreSonus than it did to buy it.

Wow.
Thanks. That's it.
Not only was I insulted by a staffer for my failure to find the upgrade price after I pointed out several others couldn't find it either, but I got stumped completely by this new requirement of clicking on Studio One 5 to enter my Upgrade. It is not how I've entered the upgrade for any of their other products.
Just wow.
But thank you, TheMaartian. I have it running now.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
