Toontrack - EZ Drummer 2 Pre-purchase

Hello,
 
Anyone having trouble with their site ? It takes an age to load with IE, FF and Opera. Takes me 5 minutes to log in and place ther order.
 
Then I get taken to a Swedish page for payment - PayEx.
 
I'm getting a little upset about this and wandered if any others have had problems similar ?
 
Toontrack are VERY slow at replying to mails and forum posts (after 24 hours my post is still pending moderation........
 
Cheers,
Jerry

I just pre-ordered from my rep at Sweetwater.  But I also was checking out the "new" site this morning at Toon.  Quite frankly, I much prefer the old site.  It was easier to move around in and easier to see at a glance your account/product info.  And the new site is...probably due to needing to "get the kinks out"...very slow.  And though I'm sure that the front page will be changing to highlight whatever product is currently being touted (now, EZD2) it makes all the other products look like also rans.  As and FYI, you'll always get a better deal by ordering from a vendor than from Toon directly.
 

Let's hope the new site doesn't have the AudioMidi website curse!

ditto - such a slow site, I liked being able to scroll down and look for updates versus needing to click on every product.

Jerry, there's this thread where people did have some issues and you may want to hold off on installing (it installs over your current EZ) as some have found it to be unuseable.......read it here: http://forum.cakewalk.com/New-Toontrack-website-m3031762.aspx

Thanks Mesh, i saw that Fred and was going to buy then wait until the 6th for download when i assume the correct file(s) will be up.....

Its the PayEx Swedish web page that is bothering me. I might try what yoroldpal suggested.

Cheers,
Jerry

Yeah.  I'm thinking the company that got fired over the Obamacare site must've..... 

Just because something is new doesn't mean its better!
and in this case "just because its old..." old is more gooder.

FWIW I gave up.

i purchased it from Thomann Europe - which, including shipment, was 1€ cheaper than Toontrack !!

I think if TT wants to keep their distribution network happy, you always should get a better deal at a dealer.

I'm not seeing any incentive for pre-purchasing. If you purchase the upgrade before or after the release date the price appears to be the same. Am I missing something?
Thanks.

missing GAS I believe...

Actually, waiting can be good because (maybe) some of the other dealers will/may have discounts applied, like audiodeluxe.com.....

Three more new drum plug-ins will be released while you're waiting.

Ruh Roh!!!

Has anyone been able to watch the web cast in real time?
I tried the first time out and couldn't get on, I think several others had the same issue.
I've just watched the rest once they been uploaded; way less hassle.
Between that, and the really, really ****en new website...
(whoops, mybad? b_i_t_c_h_e_n new website)
But I am confident when I download EZD2 on Tuesday I will be a happy guy!

I'd copy and paste that serial number. You'll never draw that in exactly right.

Apparently Tom went to a school that encouraged thinking (errrm, drawing) outside the box.
