new splash screen purpose

[patrick maguire]

Im not sure, but, it seems the new “splash screen” features simply make the plug in take longer to be active.

What is the point of this?  Does the program take longer now to be ready to go? It feels like it does.

The previous no splash screen design allowed you to select windows and or click other options while it was loading.. now you just sit and stare at the splash screen for 8 seconds.

Apart from the issues you have highlighted. Which are all true. Since SD3 version 3.3.2 the transport in Cubase is broken. When you press play. The drums do not start until you reach the location of the previous stop. The development team are saying this has nothing to do with the new splash/nag screen. They have said that the start location is not being stored correctly between plays. If that is the case you would have thought it would an easy fix. But no we have being waiting for the fix for weeks. No doubt they working on keeping the unwanted splash/nag screen and fixing the broken transport. So you can follow this whole circus of insanity on the threads below.

Why! The logo.

I don’t think they understand what work flow is. Since finally admitting that there is a problem they have said nothing. Leaving us Cubase users with a broken and very annoying bug. Plus the fact the new splash screen gets in the way anyway.

Toontrack has not removed the splash but and added “loading” inside splash window – is this a joke?
Please stop making the plugin for bussiness show and start making it for users.  Thank you.
