How do you guys embed the video? And even "loop" it. That is cool x 10!

It's a brand new and exciting technology we like to call "the animated gif".  Actually, it's not so new and once upon a time it was pretty much the only way to put a "video" on the interweb. 

LSHAGCOMN!

3 Questions to Ponder:
How many people participated in the Pre-Sale?
Of those people, how many are going to be sitting by their computers tonight waiting for the minute the download link is made available?
And will the servers be able to handle the (quite potentially) massive load?

Now I want you all to keep in mind that I am a registered Software Junkie, and I'm really jonesin' for this fix (man). So I would appreciate it if you all could just wait until my download is complete until you start yours.
Am I serious? No.
Am I pathetic? Depends on who you ask.
Do I have a life? Music and software are my life (oh I do have a wife and kids, and I think a few pets, they fit in there somewhere) ;)

Can you please elaborate Dave?

I think I have... 

I used to publish this every year... anyone remember it? (This was prior to the downloadable release...)

The Sonar Forum yearly Sonar release cycle:
1) Anticipation of the new release
2) Elation when the new release is announced
3) Distress about the ordering and delivery process especially outside the US
4) Joy when the package is delivered
5) Optimism of the new features and functions
6) Disappointment at the discovery of new bugs or features that don't work or are missing
7) Desire for the patch release(s)
8) Hope for the new features on the wish list for the next release

I've been ahead of the curve since August 2nd, 2012. -----> http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.aspx?m=2629986

As mentioned above, they are just animated gif files. You can't actually embed a 'real' video in your posts.
 
And it's really easy to make your own (like my current avatar) - there's even a free bit of software available: Microsoft Gif Animator.

Oh, yeah. There's definitely overlap between the cycles. There's still people complaining about Sonar 7. ;)

Dang Dave...you really want to write a future script like that....maybe this release will be different

Not a chance... This is based on at least 10 years of experience. I don't think this is any different than any other software release. This is normal.

Well I hope you're wrong this time bud

I just love these pre-launch parties.

Well here it is almost 1:00 am Thursday morning and no release for X2 is available. The presale is over. The only thing on cakewalks site is an announcement saying the Presale is over and X2 will be here soon. I don't think you can predict a date for release based upon when the presale ends.

The only thing Cakewalk said for sure was that it would be available sometime at the end of September and that we would have 24 hours before it is released to the general public. There are 30 days in September and today is the 20th. So that means anytime in the next 9 days it will be available for download.

It may not even be available until sometime next week. We don't know for sure. All we know is sometime in the next 9 days..........

Relax! it will be here when it gets here. So lets start a pool based on the release date. That is a good way to pass the time, lets see...put 5 bucks down for the 25th.
