Well, it seems that this was the quietest non-release release so far in OS X that I know of:
http://store.yahoo.com/cakewalkdirect/metr...o6upgrades.html Apparently registered owners of Metro 5 and Metro SE are now able to purchase 6.0 (with OS X support) as an upgrade through 12 January 2003. I guess that's going to be the "official" public release date. (?) Any registered Metro users out there who've made the jump? |

Thanks for that, gidfiddler.
Yes, the OMS/FreeMIDI mess is something I think we'd all be glad to attend the funeral for. Your report on Metro's support for soundfonts is very heartening. I think soundfonts are one of the most underrated things around the audio world. Must be a snob factor or something, but I have some free soundfonts that I wind up picking over some Akai patches every time. It's just a matter of how the samples were made and how well it was all programmed. With the NN-XT's editing capabilities in Reason, you can tweak the things any way you want once you load them in there, including features not even supported in soundfonts. Speaking of Reason, I don't see ReWire support featured on the Metro page. With Reason's popularity, I hope that is something that is coming soon. But soon as I clear the decks here a little bit and get these pesky clients out of my hair  I'll take Metro for a spin and see what she'll do.Things are gettin' interesting again.
