Time will tell, but I will be very surprised if windows dev doesn't slow to a crawl, hence the end of monthly big feature updates and the rollover to lifetime fixes:(


Noel emphatically said they have no plans to stop or slow down with monthly SONAR updates. Maybe you should consider reading and absorbing the whole thread before making such accusations.


Sorry - didn't  mean it to sound like an accusation.  Just a concern really. As I said, time will tell. I really hope I am completely wrong, and I could well be!  


Love and peace tenfoot.

They would develop for both side by side. Both platforms will be identical. Most people don't realize that PC and MAC software are written identically for the most part. Just compiled differently.


But the parts that are not core code, but interface - are critical for performance and issues.
 
I remember 3-4 years ago - running Reaper - there were serious issues with Mac version performance and scanning plugins.
 
Exactly how threads get priority are also critical in a realtime processing like audio and GUI.
How Windows handles events are also different from how Mac OSX works.
 
Mac version of Digital Performer has been around forever, almost. When releasing Windows version two years ago - I tested last christmas last time - and it still use double cpu for same project compared to other Windows daws I tested on.
 
So it's not quite that simple...optimizing takes very different measures on different platforms.

Although I'll probably never go to a Mac, I of course hope that CW does not fail in this endevour.

I guess we will need to slide over a bit to accommodate our new friends from across the OS sea on the forums
