Right!? Especially here. It would take weeks before anyone installed it.

Funny, and also, kind of amazing. I love what happens when the knob briefly passes by "jazz".

The longer it stays around though the less of a fib it is. At some point it will be the truth™. :koolaid:

Indeed. And for the record, I do have to say that MOTU has a history of always pleasantly surprising me whenever my faith in the unicorn has wavered. :unicorn: :D

I've decided I wasn't fooled because I didn't see the first post until after noon.

Here's an idea: let's keep this thread going until MOTU actually releases DP12.

Then this thread will be true!

Thanks James.

Heck, with modern AI technology, a plugin like this is probably going to be a reality pretty darn soon.

Got me again.

It's a good song title: "I'm Still an April Fool in June".

DP11 was released on July 6th 2021, so at this point if it is ready they should wait until 7-6-25 to release it. They can then do ads "Four years in the making!"
