Rapture Pro Success Stories - Post your thoughts here

Have you checked the CCC lately? Seems like there have been some fixes.

I don't seem to have any off the loading issues, regards time (loads quick enough) or missing packs (though only 2 have been installed).
 
Within Sonar I don't have any issues, works fine. Stand alone won't launch the ASIO platform though, so I can't use stand alone, but I have no desire to, soo can't be arsed to chase Cake about it. Nothing came of my previous efforts to get issues resolved with development team or technical support, so I won't waste my time on something I don't care about.
 
@Craig, cool, I hadn't checked CCC
 
 

Once you've tackled getting the program you want (that's most of the issues) it's fine from there really providing you stick to Sonar. Tricky with other DAW's.

Are you Windows or Mac? The Windows version in my CCC is showing 2.0.1.488. [ooops - please see major correction in subsequent post]
 
I was about to detail my tale of woe trying to update Rapture Pro. It would not update the .dll itself and gave me the option to abort, retry, or cancel. I hit retry numerous times to no avail. CCC also posted a message that said the Matrix button .bmp resource could not be replaced.
 
What the error message SHOULD have said was "Hey, dummy, do you realize SONAR is running in the background and you have an instance of Rapture Pro inserted? Just sayin.'"
 
Doh.
 
For whatever reason Rapture Pro is behaving itself. All the libraries are there are everything is working. I have run across some patches with issues (e.g., tuning on some acoustic instrument notes, a click at the beginning of the note, that sort of thing) but everything is stable enough to do some serious patch development. The Performance controls are great, not just because of performance options, but because you can program several easy-to-access variations within a single patch.
 
 
 

I'm on Windows 64 bit and still 2.0.0.480 is only in CCC and the Store for me. CCC showing the green light.

Maybe you have Rapture Crew privileges Criag. What does it show on your account. Maybe updated so your new months content ensured to work with the ix release when we all get it.

Maybe you have Rapture Crew privileges Criag.

I was thinking the same thing....  Intranet connection as opposed to internet connection

480 showing in the store for me as well

CCC also I assume?

I don't use CCC ...

It's a reassuring blunder Craig, something is around the corner.

It makes a supporter of Cakewalk (myself) question where our support is directed. It kind of makes me feel like a sucker. It wasn't ready for release. A silly ad buy shouldn't dictate your release schedule.

I am a lucky resident of the former Gibson factory locale who owns and plays awesome factory seconds from days past.

I've expressed once before,... I'm a little bummed that this has been allowed to be released.

I was thinking the same thing that Rapture Pro does have issues.  However, on second thought, I am still glad I made the purchase.  We can see what it can become.  Also, at the end of the day, I would have still shelled out the dollars for it knowing that it will be improved.

That being said, I would not yet quite trust it in a live situation as I have loaded some patches (even stock RP ones) that bring Rapture Pro to a screeching halt.

I have read on here that people are concerned that Rapture Pro is simply the same feature set that Rapture Legacy and Dim Pro have.  To some extent that may be true.  However, I like the consolidation of patches (before we have to remember which synth had which patch) , the search-able browser is handy, the performance mode is excellent.

I suspect that the update for Rapture Pro will be released along with the E*.* release of sonar. 

I can't wait.  But I guess it's a case of "Patience Grasshopper...."

Showing off Rapture Pro.

Meanwhile, I must say I think I'm coming up with some cool sounds...

I can feel a content pack coming on  :)

Rapture pro is working properly for me. All now works. I uninstalled all and reinstalled all. Took a while. I followed instructions from support.

Are you talking about the RP Installation FAQ above or something else?
Thanks.
