Anyone else think it's weird that Jules and Mackie haven't mentioned Final Mix being bundled with Tracktion at all? Not on this forum, not by email, not on the mackie forum, not on the raw materials website, not on the mackie website ....

It's like it's a big secret ....

I think it's cause some disgruntled employee stuck it in the last update installer :shock:

It's kinda wierd to include that as in an update with no mention..you would think they would pump that online rather loudly as a selling point.

It's also odd that it's bundled in like it is. Kinda distracts the eye from the Tracktion update; were you guys hoping for more in that last update? Maybe this is to keep ppl quiet..

I thought about buying Tracktion just to have this plugin..I don't know what it's about. My experience with Tracktion is limited at best.





















cause I'm an eXT user :D

I think it is something of a bone to the dogs, but I guess other possibilities are:

1) no official announcement 'til the mac version so as not to piss of mac owners

2) testing the water for inlcuding such plugins - how do people react, how much support work does it create etc

3) documentation and functionality is still a little unfinished so this is kind of an unnoficial beta

4) mackie held a huge employye party, the hangovers are still fading, and no-one can be arsed/see straight enough to update the webpage and send out emails.

5) you're all stoned and there is no such plug

I think this should be turned into a poll.

I vote 5

It strikes me as a bit odd, too. Weird.

When I first heard about it here on KVR my first thought was let's download it now before they discover the mistake.
It's a great plug, very transparent but I prefer my TRacks for final mix.

Fair enough. Sure wish I had TRacks. :D

I didn't mention it because I forgot to.. nothing more sinister than that! At Mackie it'd normally have been beno that announced it here, but he's not around, so I guess that's why nobody there posted about it.

But you lot seem to have been doing a good job of discussing it without any help!

We like to gab. You know. ;) Of course, speculation about T2 is still a bit more interesting to us. :D

That aint Jules
Thats just an automated response system built using JUCE
I wonder what the keyword was?
It cant be Jules because theres a lot of very important questions and bug reports around here and he hasn't answered any of those
Personally i dont think he even exists anymore
I think he sold Tracktion to shitloads of card manufacturars and then made a Virtual JUCE Jules :D
He certainly never says anything interestin round here anymore
Now you're in deep shit

Trackton has done a great job by word of mouth and reputation. Some companies spend millions on advertising then skimp on paying the programmers who make the product.

As for Jules not being here often. He's probably...

1) Coding like a man possesed because we all keep on saying "T2" every few words...T2 :) Besides in order to post here...He needs to stop coding (if thats what he is doing)

2) Bought his own island and is busy inhabiting it with Play Boy poster girls and over seeing his personal Orange Bud farm.

3) Jules does not exist. The person in the photo's is an actor. "Jules" is a rogue AI let loose on the net. Traction is the first step in a cunning plan so complex no mere human could comprehend it.

T2 I tell you...T2!!!

The only interestin thing Jules has posted in the TRACKTION forum recently wasn't even TRACKTION related
And that just turned into a Licensing whinge match
Duh
