Enjoy it. You will be missed.

No. Not at all.

And we are at Beta 5. Just a single bug fix.

Is there any information until when the code will work?

Thanks, @PavlovsCat. Icwas just asking because I am currently building my own standard library and am looking for advice. I have nearly all Samples from Mars, too. Goldbaby stuff is excellent in my opinion, so I picked it up for the sale price.

If I may ask: Which similar products do you love?

Any idea what new features V2 brings to the table except for the GUI facelift?

Sounds like good project management.

Beta 3 is here. Changes in Bitwig Studio 5, Beta 3 IMPROVEMENTS Browser: The ordering of search results has been improved, with direct name matches coming first, then consistently sorting other results by kind (device, preset, etc.) Templates are now listed in side-browser, and are available via a Templates source (under All Sources > by Kind) FIXES Collections weren't showing (or accepting new) VSTs [32044] Fixed crash when switching a Polymer module that is targeted by a project-level modulator [31812] Some large projects could crash the audio engine when loading [31352] Users can't save project after deleting modulator in project device [32043] Segments Grid/Polymer module & modulator: Fixed inconsistencies in release behavior in bipolar mode, etc. "Add automation lane" context menu entry was missing for project-level modulators [32054] Fixed crash when copying modulators at the track- or project-level [32018] [32021] Fixed crash when choosing template to use as default template, or when using the New from Template… action [32003] [32053] Dropdown choosers on remote control pages were not displaying the selected value [32046] Transfer Grid module: Would sometimes not allow other modules to come near it Longer sound package names were not centered in browsers [31921] Slice in Place dialog buttons looked broken [32045] Track inspectors were too wide in non-English localizations u-he CLAP plug-ins: Fixed a crash when using right-click to Init Windows CLAP plug-ins: Were sometimes not reloading VST2: Several plug-ins now work again in version 5 [32042] Nektar controller extensions: were often crashing instantly [32009]

Sometimes with third party stuff, once or twice dragging and dropping something, a spontaneous one now and then. All of this on Win 10, and S1, Reaper and Bitwig are very stable under the same conditions. So no way I even consider it for everyday work.

Out of interest: Did you use it extensively? I tried it a year ago and liked what I saw, but had several crashes and didn't invest more time because of that.

Will Tracktion Waveform get stability as an additional feature?
