Some people have received the tube compressor, but they seem so far to all be US customers...
Give it a day or two, and I expect they will have this sorted out anyway
Yeah, tried that and well, still not so appealing to me.headquest wrote: Edit > Preferences > COlors > UI brightness (bottom of the dialog box). If you set this lower you can get the screen much darker (and as I mentioned, the text turns orange once you reduce below about 20% on the slider).
For sure, I think when you consider the 18 month cycle, it doesn't seem to steep.
...and I guess that the paid updates are on an 18-month cycle, rather than the annual fee charged by Ableton/Cakewalk/etc, which helps a bit
This is a significant upgrade, and now I've had another session with it, I think I am definitely hooked!
I too like the upgrade....but the idea of because it's an 18 month upgrade it should cost more is absurd...it's been 18 months (actually 20) since the upgrade....if they upgrade again in another 18 months then that statement would make sense, but what if this time next year (keeping with they're trend of upgrades inflating) they release another upgrade and it's another 150 bux...what will you say then? Then to assume their cycle...how? They acquired CE in the late summer of '04, 1.5 came out late spring of '05...how someone can determine a pattern there is well beyond my clairvoyance ....but it's still steep...as I said I will still get it...but compared to other udgrades on other products...it isn't exactly upgrade of the year now is it?xander wrote:Yeah, tried that and well, still not so appealing to me.headquest wrote: Edit > Preferences > COlors > UI brightness (bottom of the dialog box).

The more I use it, the more jazzed I am. When it gets down to it, for what I need it beats the hell out of Nuendo or Samplitude -- quick, clean mixing and mastering.

I would be very surprised, basically! Whatever the trend among music software companies, I doubt Adobe are interested in that (they didn't even go to NAMM with Audition 2.0 so far as I can tell from the NAMM brochure!).Hink wrote: I too like the upgrade....but the idea of because it's an 18 month upgrade it should cost more is absurd...it's been 18 months (actually 20) since the upgrade....if they upgrade again in another 18 months then that statement would make sense, but what if this time next year (keeping with they're trend of upgrades inflating) they release another upgrade and it's another 150 bux...what will you say then?
Version 1.0 quickly followed the acquisition and was basically the same program with their logo on it. Version 1.5 brought the release more firmly into the Adobe family, included some bits that Syntrillium were already developing, and brought Audition in step with the release cycle of the other video products int he Adobe range. Now that it is roughly in step, the cycle has syncronised to the typical Adobe 18 month (ish...!) patternassume their cycle...how?

I agree it is a little steep, yes.but it's still steep...
Actually the more I play with it, the more I think this is a superb and far reaching update. Pretty much a complete redisign, not just graphically, but the whole mix engine, routing system, audio drivers, PDC... it seems to me that (while retaining the look and feel existing customers are used to) they have pretty much rewritten Audition from the ground up...as I said I will still get it...but compared to other udgrades on other products...it isn't exactly upgrade of the year now is it?
if what you say is true, and I'm not looking for a fight, trust me...then will you please explain why they only raised the price on the new purchase 50 bux? But take their customers that have been loyal from the start (as I have) for a ride. I hear what you're saying, I just don't think you're hearing what I'm saying...if the sticker price was 400 bux and they charged 130 for current users, that would be cool. Like I say they are not the only one...headquest wrote:I would be very surprised, basically!

Adobe has an established 18 month cycle with ALL their titles, and considering the development work needed across the whole of their catalogue I can't see them accellerating that process. Remember that over the next 18 month cycle they will also have to prepare for 64-bit processing, the forthcoming Windows Vista OS, and first off the Mac-Intel platform (with many of their products).
So I don't really think I would expect anything major for a while now

thanks! i tried that before but it still didn't work. it's working now though, seems like the transport in AA has to run to get sound out of Live.headquest wrote:You need to open Live seperately (i.e. not pressing "Launch" within Audition). This is true whenever you use Live as a Rewire slave in any host.
