I was going through some old backups and found this:

Way back in the olden times, I had spent a bunch of money on Cubase and didn't much like it. Once I found Tracktion there was no looking back.

I'm sure I've got some of these on a backup CD somewhere. It would be fun to install 1.3 again but wouldn't be able to authorise it

Time does fly, doesn't it!

Just had a quick look in my old files, and the oldest source code I still have seems to be v1.6, from 2004. Don't think I had version control on the earlier stuff, so anything before that is probably lost to history (though that's not a bad thing, it was probably pretty shocking in there!)

I installed T1 last year to do a quick then and now comparison. Took me right back to the era of bendy arrows....good times.

I think I still have a copy of T3 AND a registration code for offline registration - unfortunately, not for a computer that's still operational...

I'm on boat since some version 1.
As I don't run a studio business, just volunteering for friends, I am not a strong investor, so I want to use free 32bit plugins like "Variety Of Sounds" stuff and GlaceVerb. For some, I found no replacement, and the quality is very high.
Thus, I am mixing and practising with T7, and for me it works very well. (Some versions in between had too much trouble.)
Congrats to the great continuity. Thanks to everyone who worked or is still working on this project as a whole.

I'm considering complete upgrade when the latency compensation has reached the full complexity level throughout all wild rack constructions and send/return cross-wirings.

I've definitely got 1.6 installers on an old drive that i can't quite bring myself to throw out, maybe earlier ones somewhere ...not sure i remember how i got into using Tracktion, I do remember playing with Sonar and finding i would accidentally hit a shortcut key, or moved something, and would have no idea what i'd changed, but everything had gone wrong ...

First post in ten years, and I haven't made any music in roughly that amount of time. I was also a Tracktion OG. I just started fiddling with Tracktion, er, I mean Waveform, and I found myself drawn back into the game. Nice to see that Jules continued to back his baby. Hi Jules, btw.
