RE: New patch 15.0.4.176 for VPX released

Hi Peter and John, Probably a wise move. However, for me, there is a small improvement as I can now use HDR gamma, but a big loss because I will have to reinstall VPX to get the next patch. When I get home on the weekend, if a new patch has not been

Watch for special prices from Magix for switching from MEP to VPX, usually for about half of the retail price. You didn't indicated which flavour of MEP that you have. If you have MEP basic, then you really don't have much in the way of tools. Plus
