I have to say this looks very nice. Major Major Major upgrade. It's like getting a brand new program but already knowing how to use it.

I dived in also.

I just spoke to Customer Service and the guy told me several weeks??? I guess he didn't want to commit to any precise date. :?

More waiting ahead... :evil:

Yeah, come to think of it, I think I must be thinking of when I competitively upgraded from Logic 6 to DP 4 for $350-ish.
The best way - I think (thank you MOTU for allowing it) is to purchase someone's old copy of DP. Have them transfer the ownership and then buy the upgrade. That's how I got in. I bought DP 4.12 for maybe $75 and then bought the upgrade. You need to make sure the seller actually transfers the software if it is registered. Perfectly legal and cheap.

Now, as I go along with upgrades I end up getting closer to the $795 retail price tag - but it's alright. It's spread out over a number of years.

Did anyone see anything about engine enhancement or stability? I read about enhanced AU support - but to be honest - I've never really had any problems with AU in DP for any version that I have had.

Awesome! This looks to be one of the best upgrades in a long time. I will order as soon as the ".1" version is out. I have a strong aversion to ".0" software releases! :o

Now, this may be old news but still it is very nice:

" DP6 now pre-renders instrument track output before playback actually begins, allowing the computer's CPU to distribute the required processing beforehand, rather than in real time."

I pre-ordered. Looks like a great upgrade to me. Seems they've been very responsive to user requests.

New leveler plug. More frame rates. BWF. I'm sold on those three additions alone.
