Awesome. I'm expecting my copy to arrive today as well. It's been on my wish list for a while, so I jumped on the offer for SONAR 6 users. Really looking forward to digging into this one. René's synths are the best.

With the delivery record around here, "on the truck" is only 25% of the battle. You guys aren't going to regret this decision; far from it. Call it a gut instinct.

FedEx has been pretty good w/Cake stuff. S6 arrived on time for me  I do a lot of dance/trance stuff, so this will be a perfect fit.

Tom,
yea, Rapture is a classic synth. It isn't the only synth you'll need, but I find it covers more and more basses (pun inteneded).

It's a snap if you have the tracking number. Call them up, they'll locate the package, and phone ahead to have them set it aside for you after the driver returns. My local facility here was open until 9:00 PM for pickup, I believe.

You will like it. It's a bad little synth. Wish I had the time to learn it. Waiting for "Rapture Power" book by author Brockway.

Picked up the recent Rapture offer. I have been trying out the demo off and on for ages. Now I can get the real thing. The patches are really great. Looking forward to the expansion packs as well!

Just received my Rapture today (sounds a little Old Testament, yes?). I love the sounds it makes; I especially like the chamber reverb to give some of the more ominous tones a real spooky feeling (getting ready for the holiday).
I haven't used one instance of Dimension Pro in a project--nothing seems to fit with that synth, but I do like it. Rapture seems to be much better for my needs.
Of course, I'm not going to toss out my trusly z3ta+ anytime soon :)

You did. They had an offer that expired the 30th of Sept that lasted a couple of days where if you had upgraded/obtained Sonar 6 you could get rapture for about $169 if I recall correctly.

I was out of the country for 3 1/2 weeks...bummer! Actually, according to the new e-store, the Sonar6/Rapture special has been extended. Through October 30th get Rapture for only $159 when you purchase or own SONAR 6. PROMO CODE REQUIRED. More info here. And, no, I'm not affiliated with Cakewalk.
