05/01/1996 Cubase VST Macintosh 3.0 (First VST version)
8/1/1997 Cubase VST v3.5 (Mac)

No VST at all for 68K macs. Audio support (Cubase Audio) needs a Nubus audio card ... Digidesign, etc... AFAIK.
In The 68k era I had an 840AV and worked with Logic Audio because it had support for the audio in the AV.

I have a boxed version 3.5. (actually says 3.52 on the disk) and a boxed Version 4 r2.

Each box comes with a serial number and a licence/authorisation floppy disk.
I seem to remember the floppy disk authorisation process was a massive pain and you had to put a file back on to this disk when 'de-authorising' (moving computers). I'm not sure my floppy disks are valid...

Should I upload ISO's of both here?

I have boxed version 2.0 (black and white). This pre-CD era uses only floppy disk authorization schemes.

You have many many Cubase licenses?

just post it publically?? do you really want to answer each message personally? that makes no sense

If update that 4.0 version to version 4.1r2...does audio-editor still works (mine shows only half of audio)? Or is it only my problem (recording with 24bit/96khz)?

And interesting question to me is that version 3.52 doesn't support 24bit-audio, but I have strange hint that updating to 3.65 or 3.7 should give support for that and also support for Mac OS 9. Is that true?

why are we "pm for link" please can someone just post a working DL?

version 3.52 asks for "master disk" to be inserted.. it's asking for a floppy -- and when it doesnt get the floppy it removes all the installed files.. sigh
it does have an installable demo of 3.52 that installs fine without the floppy
it also seems to contain the Cubase Audio XT installer just like the image from above indicates except for v3.52 rather than 3.0.2

Yeah, both versions (3.52 & 4.0) came with a serial number and a licence/authorisation floppy disk.

The floppies that I received with these packages were missing authorisation files. With the floppy disk authorisation process you had to put a file back on to this disk when 'de-authorising' (moving computers). I guess this means the previous owners didn't bother to put the file back.
