Hey thanks for gettin back to me. Much appreciated. In regards to what you said, yeah, a promo with a reduced upgrade price when the new one came out would be great or a buy it now at full price and get a free upgrade would work too. The problem is……aside from the one promo last August on audiomidi.com, there hasn’t been anything at all anywhere that I know of in regards to a promo and I’ve looked and waited for months….so if you know of something…. TELL ME PLEASE!!!!! http://www.toontrack.com/forum/javascript:void(addSmiley(‘body1′,%20’http://www.toontrack.com/forum/image/s1.gif’)) I’d much rather use the money to buy yet ANOTHER SDX/EZX that I would get alot more use out of as opposed to something I would use for a very short time and never touch again.

Another idea (if you haven’t thought of it already) would be to release a subscription based version. I’m sure there’s tons of people like myself who have old demos lying around that they would love to modernize but then would really have absolutely no use for it afterwards. Seems like this utility would be perfectly suited to have that kind of option, like a monthly rental or something, just my 2 cents….

Hi all. I was kinda wondering the same thing. I have a bunch of older material from the 90’s that never got released and I’m really put off on buying drumtracker because 1. its like 2+ years old near the end of it’s life and 2. I just cant see spending 130-150 for something I would never use again after I was done with it, especially if I knew a new one was around the corner. I missed out on the audiomidi.com promo last year by like a week or something.

Can you at least say whether  it would be before/after summer ( a personal message would be totally ok if that’s not something to be talked about in a public forum and no i wouldn’t say anything because I don’t want my authorizations to get revoked haha) as it’s not that time sensitive, but something I would like to work on  after I get done with my newer stuff. Also,  how about the opportunity to purchase the new one and get a free upgrade since it is definitely in the works. At least if someone had to shell out for it they would know they would at least know it wouldn’t be obsolete in a couple of months and have to buy it all over again.

Hi there. I’m kinda in the same boat actually. I had gotten the Foundry through a music store here in the states and the copy was bad ( there were alot of scratches on the disc after I started seeing errors while trying to install) so I called up the tech support and they sent me another set of discs that had no serial on them as well but the problem is……the discs are heavily scratched as well, just like the first set I got and I happen to think it has to do with the way they were packaged in manufacturing because when you open up the package and take them out, most of the scratches are vertical only on the side that was put into the sleeve. The pockets are very tight as well and they almost have to be pulled out EXTREMELY carefully, not to mention there seems to be some air bubbles around the inner ring of the discs. I even tried mixing and matching the discs to try and get ONE good install but to no avail. What’s worse, is that I have a mixing session scheduled for this weekend to which the Foundry was going to be put to use but is in serious jeopardy of being cancelled and me being out about 800 bucks and no software and a headache.
 
To top it off, I was supposed to get an email or hopefully a telephone call from someone here but havent gotten anything from anyone anywhere and I really don’t feel like lookin like a jerk in front of clients for something I have really no control over being that I factored in plenty of time to install it and play with the program a little, to get a replacement that doesnt even work either. Major bummer. Bottom line is they probably need to change the packaging where the dvds arent crammed into a little cardboard pockets and then sent all over the world regardless of how much packing is added.
 
Here’s a suggestion: Why don’t you guys ship them with (or offer as an option for a small fee) an expandable master case that can hold all of the discs at the same time, offer equal protection for all discs and actually just look pretty damned cool overall…very convenient as well….Kinda like a superfat 2.0 case and the subsequent releases come with the inner plastic trays that just snap into the box, being that you have to buy 2.0 first anyways….I dunno if this has ever been discussed anywhere. Maybe it’s a “green” thing with the digipack style but I dunno…..sounds like there might be quite a few people out there in the same boat especially when we’re talkin a good chunk of change for these things not to work because of manufacturing issues 🙁 Just my 2 cents. And if I sound like an A-hole it’s just because I was very excited to get my hands on this only to be let down not once but 2x and counting with a clock ticking if you know what I mean. Not how I planned to spend my weekend……
