Yah. I'm kinda surprised by the magnitude of some of these items too.

Hey guys,

First, thanks for all the enthusiasm about the 5.2 update!

I just wanted to clarify something about the VST MIDI output add: this feature will add MIDI output support to VST instruments like Groove Agent, Jamstix and EnergyXT. It doesn't cover VST MIDI-only effects.

I hope you still find it a good update?

Cheers,

Aw shux. S'okay, I can keep using whyterabbyt's workaround for Chordspace. Still good, yeah. =^_^=

We'd like to "see" you more at KVR.

Thanks for clarifying that Alex. A little bit of a shame, as MFX plugins are few and far between compared the host of MIDI effects waiting to go into the MIDI FX inserts.

That said, it's still a good update.

Y'can still wrap yer MIDI-processing VST effects in the VSTi of eXT, though, cant yer?

What's the stability like? I am currently running 4.04, but 4.02 seemed to be the most stable. 4.04 will occasionally "disappear". It maybe a VST issue though. I would go back to 4.02 but I do like the gapless engine.

S5P users, is 5 more or less stable than 4?
Alex what do you think of the stability of 5.2?

More, IMO. The only single issue I had with it was the VST automation bug. The only thing I wanted improved was MIDI from VSTs. And viola, look wot happens...

Damn, got my hopes up about MIDI VST effects as well. Still, gotta love Cakewalk upgrades.

Hey Meffy, could you point out where I might find this? Much thanks.

version 5.02 is much superior in all respects to v4 imho

Cheers,

Any news on fixing the problems in version 4 with more than one envelope not working on vst plugs?

Any update on 4.04 at all?

I've forgot where it was... nuffink's Chordspace announcement thread IIRC, one with lots of pages...

Actually, Chordspace is a VSTi - I just tried it with SONAR 5.2 and it seems to work just fine over here.
