I'm in Australia & have registered several versions of Vegas, Sound Forge & Acid but have not received any notifications.

+1 ron.

i find magix's approach to registered users a bit haphazard. one would have thought it was simply a matter of getting scs's database (which they've got) and doing a mail out?

not happy with progress so far....

I've always loved MAGIX software, glad they are taking over Sony Vegas.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't change the familiarity of the program ! I don't want to learn everything again ... keep it the way it is now, just ADD more features to it.

I've just received a mail out from Magix for my Vegas 9. so it may just be a case of them processing the data and matching the mail shot.

I just got a mail too detailing the offer for Vegas 13 and then Vegas 14 in September.

I guess that as I am already on 13 I won't receive any offer email just yet.

Don't fret. Many others have had this email whilst still having VP13. Most likely working through the Continents and the alphabet. North America and Canada got them earlier in the month. Got mine two days ago.

However, why am I and "others" getting the offer anyway? Makes no business sense. Or simply that the database isn't filtering correctly.

Well, I got the offer on the 20th. of June and I haven't used Vegas in years, I got as far as Pro 9.

Make of that what you will.

Unless there are many hundreds of thousands of Vegas users we are unaware of, I find it hard to believe that in this day and age it isn't possible to email everyone simultaneously, with tailored content according to, for example, products owned or products on earlier versions eligible for upgrades. I suspect they've just either inherited a crap database or they've messed it up.

And it could be both.

I'm calmly and sagaciously, taking this as a potential future indication of the lines of communication between the Engineers<>Support<>Sales<>Marketing.

We have been here before now.

The email offers:

"Exclusive welcome offer
Valid until 31 July, 2016
£ 300 off VEGAS Pro 13
VEGAS Pro 14 for free"

So this offer seems to be aimed at users with earlier version, rather than those currently with Vegas Pro 13.

This is an email response from Magix to a recent inquiry......

"Thank you for your interest in our bundle offer for VEGAS 13 + 14. As you know, VEGAS 14 will be released in September 2016. And we don't think users who are planning an upgrade to VEGAS 13 so close to the new release date should miss out on the exciting new version. So any customers who upgrade to VEGAS 13 between now and July 31st will also get
VEGAS 14 for free! Those of you who already use VEGAS 13 will receive a separate upgrade offer in September. Hang tight!

It seems that September 20th may be when V14 will be introduced:

Re: Announcement from Magix about Vegas14
 
So has anyone gotten their Vegas 14 info yet? I ordered 13 during the promo period, but there's nothing on my magix account that indicates where to download the full version of 14. I can see the trial version link on there and I was going to download it just to try it, but I thought we would've gotten an email or something.
