Hope you stick around KVR, and maybe get a sub-forum of your own.

Agree!

I'm testing the demo again after many years of looking at this. If I can figure it out by the 14th I may buy it and give it a go. It's a sizable brain twister for this old Logic user though! Ha!

I bought it ten days ago but have no time at the moment to dig into it.
The MIDI edition seems to me about the best one I have ever seen on any DAW. Added to this, Metro is a no bell no whistle DAW which is something I quite like and this finished to convince me I should get it.
Regarding the manual, from what I have seen I agree it would be fine if it could benefit from some improvement/updating.
Altogether IMHO a DAW which definitely desserves to be better known.

It would make sense that we will never see it this cheap again, especially if version 7 is the bees knees, and it catches on with the recording community for it's strengths; as a good 'alt' for specific tasks. Hell, for some: It may even become their primary multitrack recording environment .

$132 for a full-blown, well-supported, mt is dirt.

+1

I'm pleased to see 'other' devs making new and seperate 'products' from key elements/components of their existing products... fxpansion is a case in point with their new "fx" derived from D-Cam (etc).

I should install the latest and give it another go as well. It's been a long time... so much of what I do these days isn't really traditional composition that it just usually makes sense for me to load Live, but there's no doubt that Metro is a powerful tool that doesn't get enough kudos.

I've just downloaded the Metro 6 demo, but won't have time until the weekend to dig into it deeper -- so I'm hoping that a Windows user (or Sagantech), can answer this for me....

Being 64 bit now, does Metro have a built-in bridge for 32 bit plugins? Alternatively, has anyone used it successfully with jBridge?

Thanks for any comments.

Yes, I have worked with the author of jBridge to be sure it works perfectly (as possible).

I'm not sure if this has already been answered but can Metro act as a ReWire slave?

SaganTech · Post by **SaganTech** » Thu Oct 11, 2012 8:55 am

No it only acts as a master. Why would you want it to slave?

To pipe music generated by Ultra Rhythm Explorer into other DAWs.

Just trying out the demo on my Mac and feel compelled to say: "WOW"!
If you're into MIDI editing; you owe it to yourself to give this beauty a try.
Seems extremely well thought out; great workflow, HUGE range of editing options, straight forward and elegant.
Getting some crunchy audio artifacts, but I may simply not have my audio set up correctly.
Also a bit of lag when selecting buttons in the transport control, but I feel inspired to keep exploring it.
Perhaps the lag is due to how I have it set up?
I'm using OSX Lion 10.7.3.

Agree, I already wrote it but that is worth saying it again, I had been looking since a long time for a really comprehensive and functional MIDI edition in a DAW, and I have at long last found it.
This was enough to decide me, but beside this Metro is a solid and well thought DWA, including BTW a note score edit which is not part of all DAW, and all in all that makes it a very worthy alternative to the more well known DAW.

Do you use *Metro* ?
