Hi Admin Keymaster,
I’m hoping you can help. I started out with master tracks when they first came out and stayed with them till version six. I have some old master track songs that I am desperately trying to revive, but since it is decades ago since I used Master tracks pro we no longer have a serial number in order to install it using SheepShaver.
Could you please make any suggestions on how I could move forward and what I might be able to put in the section program serial number when installing.
I’m sorry for contacting you this way. I did try to make a post, but I guess it did not go through and I am all out of options.
Any advice you can have I would greatly appreciate it!
Kind regards
ChrisPS, I’ve never been on a form before so I don’t know if I’ll ever get notified if you respond, but I will check back.
Thank you so much for your time and patience.Sonic Scores Overture incorporates the functionality of Master Tracks Pro. I suggest downloading it for evaluation to see if it can open your old projects.
This board doesn’t let me post links or I would include one–neither have I ever used Master Tracks Pro.
Mike, is Don sick? Dead? Is there anything you can tell us. Last we heard from him was May 2025.
I’m offering money to fund the completion & CRICKETS. What is going on?
Some kind of crowdfunding should be possible, indeed
Or something like an pre=delivery purchase.But I don’t think anything like that is worth considering, unless we get some news on the progress, or the lack of it.
We have no idea if the stand-still is due to financial reasons, or to really personal ones.
Overture 6 is also blocked, by the way.
Been doing lots of charts lately. Working on one now which reminded me to take a look at the forum. No update yet so still on track for that late 2027 date. Still hope to be wrong on that.

Probably the last time I spoke with him. I left a message in January but have not heard back.
Worst customer service ever. If 6 ever does come out (which I feel like there’s currently about a 5% chance of that ever actually happening), Don has proven to his previously-loyal customer base that he doesn’t care much about us. I understand plans don’t always go according to plan. That’s forgivable. I understand things like health problems can sidetrack goals. That’s forgivable. And if he’s dead or in a coma or something, that’s unfortunate and obviously forgivable, but is there really no one he’s designated to keep us apprised of the situation? Keeping us in the dark for so long when we’ve been begging for an update informs us of the level of customer service he/his business is capable of providing, if Encore ever does actually get off the ground again. Probably time to move on.
Worst customer service ever.…
You aren’t his customer — and never were unless you own a license for Overture (as many of us do).
Don was the original developer of Encore but there were other owners over the decades. It was the last owner that never updated to 64 bit and left the code in such shabbles. Don bought the source code and has been promising to resurrect Encore. Yes, we are disappointed that this hasn’t happened but, until he sells licenses to the new version, the term, “customer service” does not apply.
