So the current beta phase ends Jan 15 but you are still posting messages that BW will be out by the end of the year?Geek Model wrote:
So don't give up! Bitwig Team need 300 pages at this topic until the end of the year!
Conflicting messages like this are confusing and bound to lead to wild speculation.
This goes back to what was being said earlier in the thread about BitWig needing to inform the world if they are actually still planning to release this year or not.
On an intellectual level I understand the software will be released eventually and when it does I will buy it.
On the other hand I am a flawed human being and subject to to all the trappings of human psychology/emotions. No mater how beautiful a woman is, if she continues to be a C@$K tease over a long enough period of time, eventually you will give up and move on (and probably be frustrated on your way out
Having a good product on its own is not enough, marketing it correctly is just as important. As people in the music industry we should know this better than any one.
How much great but unmarketed music is out there that the majority of us will never hear? How many times do you turn on the radio and hear music that is derivative and boring but masterfully marketed?
I'm not saying this as a thinly veiled ploy to provoke BW into releasing information for my own satisfaction. I'm saying this because (regardless of how good the actual software is) the messaging is becoming a mess and a running joke here and on other pro-audio places on the internet. The more drama surrounding the release the more unrealistic the expectations of the product. This can affect reviews, public opinion and sales.
But what do I know, I'm just another anonymous voice on the internet.
