Actually they have been advertising with "monthly" updates for a good while, though I suppose without actual release dates that leaves some wiggle room. But yeah the month isn't even over and certainly wasn't even near over when this thread started.

I think they are trying to come up with a good "O" name....I have to think back 20+ years since I left Boston....

Bakers also need time to breath.
Forcing for MONTHLY updates will give "Add Track", "LANDR" etc etc.

You would have gotten those whether the updates were monthly or yearly. It's important to understand that work on specific features begins months in advance. They're "harvested" when they're ready. Some features take longer than others and some take less time. Those that take less time will be ready sooner and therefore be available while more complex features are still being developed. Also note that Add Track and LANDR were added in the same update, they weren't the only updates in individual months. If you want to know about an upcoming feature that takes more time to develop, look at the thread about UI themes.

I completely agree with you Mr Craig.
You know better the whole set of posts regarding LANDR and Add Tracks.
I mentioned that bakers needs time to breath - I meant that this development is also a creativity which cannot be forced with a timeline, unless they have already something stored ahead of time but not released.
 
Yes I have already seen the UI theme thread. That is lovely. I wish there could be a glimpse of the Track View as well. I requested there if MIDI channel, Bank and Patch can be included.

Not only is spring suppose to be here, but I guess March is already over. Where did the month go?

 Andrew, I warned you about the early access program but nooo...you wouldn't listen. Now you have a bunch of users who didn't know how to use the Time Travel plug-in properly, and are now in April. So of course they think they haven't received the April update yet. Then again they may actually be posting from April...I did notice the time stamp on some posts was "two weeks from now."
 

Early access cannot be for everyone. In my opinion users need to qualify for that.

I am a bit surprised we have not gotten a "What's coming soon" teaser at least by the 25th.

The early access program was described as giving new releases about a week in advance so not entirely unreasonable at this point to wonder what's up.  Some cool stuff has been promised for the Spring releases so some of us are just impatient

I've been running "Orange" for a few weeks now... It is AMAZING!  You won't F'n believe it!  Have spent many hours with the Bakers giggling about this thread, debating whether they should wait till 11:59 on March 31... I am sorry I suggested it.  They loved the idea... watching all the ruminations... it's soooo much fun.  And all the wonderful learning that this thread has engendered... phenomenal! And to think it was going to be released 2 days ago!
 
After thoroughly troubleshooting the sweet tasting "Orange"  and deciding it tastes PERFECT this thread appeared... What a coincidence!  After reading a few of the posts we "special" people... all of "us" decided to see how much fun "we" could have before releasing it... 
 
It really IS AMAZING!  It's close to our dream of hoverboards... and it'll be posted a minute before April fools. or maybe earlier if saner heads prevail!   But waiting for the next super comment which makes us all go, "wow!  glad we saw THAT!!!" makes it hard to resist stretching this out to the very last moment.

Vastman,
You may not realise it but this is a very strange post!   I don't think that Cakewalk had intended to create a "Master Race" by implementing their Early Release schedule.  On the other hand, as a user I appreciate the effort you and the other early adopters are putting in to make sure that any problems are found as early as possible.  I guess this does make you "special" though, not in the "short bus" kind of way of course.
 
Cheers

I think this is the case of unintended consequences... 
 
Although given the front runner in GOP land, referencing a "Master Race" is becoming politically popular or incorrect, depending on your party...  
 
The bakers conducted a very thorough search, using their new analytics program, to identify a variety of super users who spend a LOT of time on SPlat.  I scored VERY high in the category of  always ends up doing lots of stupid things... 
 
Fun Friday and Happy Bunnies
