I'm about to go grab it!

Wow! For me this sounds like a very important update...

Top of the list of fixes are for the ui and lanes/comping!

I can't wait to try it!

Wait 'til you see what you can do with the plug-in browser. It addresses a lot of the wish list items people had for the plug-in manager, but without having to use the plug-in manager. Pretty slick.

Sounds good Craig...

I'll look at those changes ASAP as well... I wasn't in need of anything there, but that doesn't mean I won't enjoy the new elements anyway! ;-)

Lane zoom minimum is exactly as I pictured... Zoom max is better, but still not a simple select-this-area-of-one-lane. It still makes the screen share multiple lanes...

I don't know why they seem reluctant to alliw a lane to be (max) zoomed as can a track... <sigh>...

But I'm grateful for the improvement and looking forward to exploring the other changes...

Fade indicators in the corners of clips have been removed? I use this all the time...
 

I am not sure whether this is placebo, but my earlier VST synth and effect heavy projects seem to be playing a little bit smoother with this August early release update....

Yeah, I don't get why this change either.  I love being able to grab the fade indicators...do it all the time also.

Hey, I just installed 8 and it still seems to work, it's just a rollover option now. :) I should say that you roll over the area and it pops up.
 
peace!

It is possible. There have been some major updates and tweaks to the FX bin streaming code in the engine in prep for another upcoming feature.

Not reluctant - its just not as simple as it seems. Its on the todo list and you may see it soon.

Thanks Noel!

Difficult I understand...

That's great news... I'm already enjoying the 08 update, so it is already a good step and helpful... I will sit tight and know it's coming ASAP....

Thanks for the anxiety meds!
