A few bugs left in the Windows version is probably why it wasn't announced at NAMM as available.. just a guess, because windows.MIDI Life Crisis wrote:Has anyone seen a demo of DP 10 working reliably on a PC?
Yeah, that would be my guess.I don't think MOTU would release just a Mac version, so maybe we're all waiting for the darn PC world to ketchup.Michael Canavan wrote:A few bugs left in the Windows version is probably why it wasn't announced at NAMM as available.. just a guess, because windows.MIDI Life Crisis wrote:Has anyone seen a demo of DP 10 working reliably on a PC?
Considering they delayed the release of 8 because the brand spanking new Windows version out of the door, it's a pretty safe conclusion Watson!MIDI Life Crisis wrote:Yeah, that would be my guess.I don't think MOTU would release just a Mac version, so maybe we're all waiting for the darn PC world to ketchup.
Company size only means os much anyway. My day job at the print shop is very low staffed for both overall sales and overall profit margin compared to others in our industry. We're at about just under half the normal staff count for the volume of our shop. Payroll is about normal since we all get paid well since we're damn good at what we do though. Still, you can be half the staff of your competitor and still DO more cause you're better at it.toodamnhip wrote:Why would MOTU be a small company after so many years? 46 employees after being in business for decades? I don’t get it. I wouldn’t trust such estimates anyway.Michael Canavan wrote:Google... Linkedin sez about the same. You have to take into account hardware, software for their hardware etc. I would bet about 10 people or less work directly coding DP. Probably half that number.toodamnhip wrote:Is MOTU really a “small” company? I keep hearing that as a reason for this and that. Hmm...are they?
Owler and LinkedIn.... MOTU has an estimated 46 employees ...
Compare that to 208 estimate for Steinberg, Ableton currently employs around 300 people, 574 at NI, Propellerhead Estimated Employees 175, Pro Tools and logic are a bit harder to get decent estimates for, but yeah MOTU are smaller.
I don't agree at all about the new version though, there's a ton of new features in 10, not really anything to debate there. You can always say they missed your wanted upgrades, (MPE and bounce options here), but to say they didn't pack a ton of new features in there is silly.
Perfick!!!! I'm snowed in. Something to do.
I read somewhere something about renaming the old folder before install. My upgrades always got on the backup rig first anyway.bayswater wrote:CAUTION !!! It overwrites DP 9 without warning. Launches with no AU validation: just loads the plugins.
