I hope it's soon! I am very close to just giving up on Directwave all together. Its never worked properly and support has been slow.

That was a lousy thread title.

LOL I guess so!

Im just getting tired of waiting now, Its been well over a year since I was told that directwave would be updated to have sample previews, mouse wheel scrolling and improved stability, I really could not care less about all of the chickensys issues.

May I suggest something like "I Wish DW would be updated soon" as a title?

Yeah, or how about being able to zoom in to zones? They're SO tiny!

just off the op of my head, as I have not used it much lately because of problems, here are some things that bother me;

* importing of some sampler formats crashes the sampler.
* import of rex files sometimes crashes.
* built-in fx don't work with rex files.
* if you save a project in your host then reopen it, the samples are missing. you have to check off a "self contained" switch in the preferences. I think this makes for larger project file sizes as it is saving the samples again in a different location.
* sampler does not recognize embedded note data in the file or from the file name.
* previewing samples in the browser crashes the sampler.
* does not work in chainer.

try looking at the image line forum for more problems that directwave users are having. cheers.

Arguru, the programmer behind DirectWave, passed away in august of last year

. If I read correctly, reflex took over but that's on top of his existing large workload.

At the same time as FL Studio 8.

There's a public beta available on our forums at this time, but it's not final yet.
