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?

I gave it another shot (at the LE demo version, anyway). It's true it's seems to have lots of potential, but dammit, the interface is absolutly awful.

In some respects, I have to agree. It's a real love-hate relationship.

The part I hate most is going through about 6 steps to set up to record audio. With Deck, e.g., you select from the available inputs right on the channel strip and click the record button and go. Metro needs some streamlining, mainly to throw its complicated "Instruments" architecture out the nearest window and say, "Here's yer MIDI channels, here's yer audio channels, have a nice day."

That said, it's a very powerful program and I hope for coming greatness in simplification. biggrin.gif

I still think its MIDI editing capabilities are excellent.
