Mine was Order #2! Magic Dave upgraded me, and he says I should be getting it in about a week. This is exciting!

...noticed VST support for both platforms. That's new, and kinda useless IMO.

From the website:
  • 100% Cocoa UI for Mac OS X
    Goodbye Carbon, Hello Cocoa

    Many of the third-party plug-ins you’ll use everyday with Digital Performer are in the process of being converted from Carbon to Mac OS X’s ultra-modern Cocoa UI platform, and Digital Performer is 100% ready to host them. Cocoa is the future, and Digital Performer is there.


At last! We can say with authority that DP is finally Cocoa-ized. A decade of worrying has just come to an end. We really are looking forward now. Something tells me this is an upgrade for the history books.

$37 5-day shipping to Alaska :(

I should call and see whether they might send it USPS, sometimes companies will take putty on us Alaskans.
