I've been saying it for a while now. Steinberg, the makers of Cubase, love to give huge deals when it comes it comes to upgrading your recording software. I often recommend a person buying an audio interface with Cubase LE bundled and then upgrading Cubase LE if / when the time is right.

Now is the best time to upgrade!!

I stole this out of Steinbergusers.com Newsletter:

For all you Cubase LE users still out there, we have to tell you, the LE upgrade program has been a smashing success so far, and LE users have been upgrading to Cubase 4 and Studio 4 at half-off the store price everyday since the limited-time deal was introduced. For only $399 you can upgrade from your modest, capable-though-highly-lacking-in-some-areas copy of LE to the biggest sequencer on the block; Cubase 4, or to his only slightly-smaller little brother Cubase Studio 4 for $199. If any of your friends have been luckier in love, more confident, or just walking around with big smiles on their faces, you can be sure they have already upgraded. Call Upgrade Sales at (877) 253-3900 for more information or to place your order.
