There, it needed to be said, and not buried in a 10 page thread dedicated to how late it was!

How is this not being trumpeted here and even in the forum? Nothing in the last few days in the News announcements! I've been checking this forum for the last couple weeks, and only saw the same threads, so didn't catch that it had actually been released. Strange how no one has said anything about this outside of the "complaining" thread (which I'm sure many have stopped reading - I know I had).

I only happened to see the announcement at Cakewalknet.com., dated yesterday.

Okay, rant over. Time to dance.

Yep, and I understand your skepticism.

Go to their site and check it out. (I just visited their site. The new 2.1 installer, dated 10-31-05, is there).

I've been keeping an eye out for the update, and still didn't know it was out. And here's another user who hear's about it and is skeptical!

Guess they're just slow in making the official announcements.

So, yes, it's here!

I think the official announcement will be made when they start shipping physical boxes. Not much point overly announcing a download only thing when in a week or so they will have one in a box with extra disks.....

It's a valid argument, but for many, one has nothing to do with the other. Not everyone will be interested in the boxed version or new soundset, while practically all v2 users will want the free update.... Might as well make it available to them, then, while at the same time announcing that the sounds/boxed versions is due out later.

Anyway, for us who found out early, no problems with slow downloads because of heavy traffic (I got mine already

).

I agree with what you said (and glad I downloaded without the normal heavy traffic issues). My post was only written as I'd expect Marketeers to do it. I didn't say it was the right way to do it.

I only happened to see the announcement at Cakewalknet.com., dated yesterday.

I mentioned it on the SONAR forum at cakewalk.com in reply to someone else's post Monday night/Tuesday morning in the overnight hours. I had developed a habit of checking the download area at the ikstore fairly regularly. I did however add a comment to the other 2.1 thread but it wasn't a complaint.

If you want a complaint, where's the "Silver" ReFill?

DL'd it and tried it both as stand-alone and within my host program Digital Performer. Seems quite stable so far, only one curiousity however. Scrolling with a scroll wheel works in stand-alone, yeah baby!! but not in DP, hmm.

We have it. I don't know why it isn't up on esoundz.com though. It will be up today. How's that for a response?

I'm waiting for 2.1.x. I'm happy with 2.0 and afraid of 2.1.

Uhm...when will the soundset be available?

We had some delays with the hurricane because the sounds were being passed back and forth between IK Italy and SR in the US/Florida. So, a week or two I think. Roughly. Sorry for the delay. We're actually lucky we're still around really. I don't know if you guys have seen the footage. It's a mess. The bowling alley down the street had its roof collapse. No more Big Lebowski bowling nights.

No need to be sorry Squids, I was just wondering. Hang in there, pal.

So, could I say (paraphrasing of course)...
