MachFive universal binary

Post by gjensse »

Received this message from MOTU Tech tonight:

"MachFive 2 is currently a high priority development project here at MOTU. We are anticipating support for Intel Macs, Windows Vista and Windows XP64 machines. All further information, including a full feature list, upgrade pricing, and release date, will be posted at <http://www.motu.com/> when it is available."

Old news?

I forgot it's a multi-platform product. It makes sense for them to hold off as they have been, and do a new release that covers both Intel macs and Windows Vista.

So now they've added "high priority" to their statements ?

Well, next year it will probably be a "very high priority development"...and the year after that, it will be a "very very high priority" and so on...

It sounds good to me!
I was told it was a low priority at last year's Musik Messe in March.

Hey I don't mean to sound prude but is this kind of language really necessary?

Trust me I won't be too happy if I have to replace Mach 5 with soemthing else simply because it never goes UB, but I've had to replace Samplecell cards that cost a whole lot more than Mach 5 did.
