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? |

Yep, a little disappointing and laborious. I took the time to set up for my US-428 but now I can use it. Unfortunately, Metro takes anything on the MIDI channel number (meaning it doesn't separate controller information coming in from different ports). Sagantech is really responsive to email on their forum though and I'll bet suggestions will be listened to. I have thought about suggesting improvements but just haven't gotten there yet.
I would warn folks about shunning Metro just for this alone. It does work, if not conveniently. Metro is quite the tool for the money and for a product that recently changed owners it was among the first to work in X and it has new features (AU, soundfonts, jukebox...) and it has already had several point updates. Obviously this is an agile/agressive developer! |
