is X4 coming? Or are we breaking the tradition?

Things are good for me with X3e.
But some extras are always welcome. 
I love when it's time to try the new versions.
 
Sorry for the 'empty' post...I am in bed with a flu ;-(

Last year, on this date...Cakewalk "leaked" info about X3 and announced the actual release only 4 days later on the 28th.  That was a significant change from their typical routine of pre-announcing and leaking details in dribs and drabs over time in order to drum up whatever excitement or hysteria they could manage.
 
We can only guess what's likely to happen in this cycle.

That is likely to be exactly their intent.

What "leak" would that be?  I don't think the pre-announcement of Garrigus' annual tome counts.

Hmmm.... I wonder what would happen if Cakewalk changed the entire workflow again, like they did with X1? I predict chaos.

I figger we are due for the name of the company to be changed to SONAR.
 
TwelveTone (1987) -> Cakewalk (2001) -> Sonar (2014)    
 
And the "Greatest DAW on Earth" will be knighted "QuBit."

I'm twiddling my thoughts wondering what X4 would give us that doesn't already exist in X3. For once I'm not bothered when it is released as the current version is a joy to use which wasn't the case for me with X2.. If they can improve on X3e then all I can say is Wow!

Cakewalk will announce X4 at AES Los Angeles Oct 9-12, 2014 - I'll be there to assess the new features and report them to you back here first as part of Channel 7 eyewitness news, and CNN and USA Today special report teams. lol hehehe---hehehe---hehehe ... just kiddin.
 
But I will be at AES137 and Cakewalk will be there too. And I'll be at their booth, and Sonar will be at their booth too. The only thing is, I don't which version will be there to greet me. lol

I guesss you missed it before it was pulled back.  Quite a few of us saw it whiz by.
And I bet a bunch of us copied it as it passed.  I didn't.

I've got the screenshot. It looks like a super early beta build to me, and indicates precisely one new feature, of which you see no actual functionality. I don't think you can say one way or the other about how soon it's coming from that.

I agree.  It's just that this sort of thing doesn't usually happen far away from release date.
I'm just joking around, I don't care when it comes out.
I still have to learn how to comp, now that I've gotten rid of X2.

Re: is X4 coming? Or are we breaking the tradition? 2014/09/24 22:50:26 (permalink)
Here's how to find out when X4 is coming out. Set your computer's clock ahead, and see if X4 shows up. For example, if you set it to December and it doesn't show up, try January. If it still doesn't show up, try February. This will also test out whether the time travel capabilities are working. 
 
However, at the moment the hovercraft code is still quite unstable. So depending on where you set your computer's time, the bug may or may not have been fixed. I recommend putting a really heavy weight on the top of your computer before trying this in case it attempts to hover.

Oh, and I am trying to get an old win 95 machine running again for that new/improved PA9!

So far, nothing floated here is anything Cakewalk has told me. Then again, maybe they're not talking to me because of my "Meet the Bakers" submission.
