Greg Wynn Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 I don’t get it - I’ve spent a lot of money of Cakewalk since 2000 and love what Bandlab has has done with it. There are some posts talking about an upcoming “significant” release as we’ve not seen any update activity since last November and I asked someone to point me to one of the posts as I haven’t seen any. And for that the thread was set to “closed” ? What’s the mystery for ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Why make a mystery where there is not one? If you have used Cakewalk products for 20+ years, then you know the policy about not discussing details in advance of release. There have been a few hints by the devs and testers. If I was curious and any information, no matter how vague, would help; I would search this forum for posts from @Noel Borthwick and @msmcleod As for myself, I know the developers and testers are crazy busy trying to get the next release out. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitflipper Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 It's standard practice across the entire software (and hardware) industry to keep new versions under wraps until they're officially released. Companies will tell you it's about protecting proprietary advantage, but it's really the same reason a band's rehearsals aren't public - you want to show the world the finished product, not how the sausage is made. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Wynn Posted May 6, 2023 Author Share Posted May 6, 2023 All I was looking for was confirmation that there would be continued dev work - that’s it. I didn’t ask anything about a roadmap, timetables or any feature details so I’m a bit confused as to why the thread was closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vere Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) One of the best things about this forum compared to many is it is generally very civilized and we truly are a community that usually shows respect for each other. If a thread becomes disrespectful or off the rails it will be thankfully frozen. So you realize the thread was closed was not by you? And that person seems to have read all the threads about the topic. We have very good moderators and I think they do a great job of keeping this forum on topic and respectful Edited May 6, 2023 by John Vere 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 If I had to guess, the OP was not asking about a thread they created; it was It appears the number/nature of the complaints about the thread triggered moderation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Tim Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 I think people are getting a little touchy since this is a more lengthy gap than usual, but not out of the ordinary for software releases. There's been a few threads about it lately, and some people immediately jumping to the conclusion that the sky is falling, thus the odd replies and locked threads. But rest assured, I posted up a reply from the CTO in one of these threads where he put the rumour to rest: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfssongs Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 I'm 65 now and I figure I've only got so much time for song writing left. For me I'm only touchy because I don't want to spend that time getting used to another system. My biggest concern is if I have a system failure or replace the machine will there be a place to get another copy of the program. The updates have been great as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 My biggest concern is who is going to be the first with an Early Access release of CbB 2023.x? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Studio 64 Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) Since development is ongoing, I hope they add VCA fader and tweak the colour scheme. And secondly how can I become a beta tester. Edited May 6, 2023 by Studio 64 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had 5 different jokes ready to go, but this being a family friendly forum has prevented me from using any of them. This is a disaster. ☹️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
