Long time Windows user too… as far as I can remember, in all these year’s I’ve been using GP now, there only once was the situation when a Windows update “ate up” an activation. But thanks to the extremely reactive staff/devs the issue was solved within no time.

Windows user here, and absolutely no issues with licensing, ever… despite Microsoft pushing updates down pretty regularly. The devs are so active and responsive on this forum that IF you ever had a problem, I’m sure it’d be sorted in short order.
Have to agree though, if you’re playing live - you want to be able to control when updates are applied. I would not want an automatic update being applied just before a gig (not because of GP, but because of what an update could potentially do to drivers / plugins etc). I get stressed enough without worrying about that!

Honestly: best music-gear money I ever spent was on GP. And I’ve owned a ton of stuff over the past 40 years. The difference in live performance between GP and Ableton (which I switched from, and which many people use live every day) can be measured in light years, I think. Stability, flexibility, and power are all simply off the charts.

It’s on my shopping list for next week. Definitely one of the best.

Just saying, the customer support for GP is the best I’ve ever seen. There’s no risk for you to be ignored by the manufacturer.
