-Does the "preserve fades while editing" work now or does it make more sense now? Or is it still the same?

-Have they fixed the beachball-problem with large region-groups?

-Have they improved the sluggishness with MXF audio-media?

-Are the "field recorder features" any better now? Especially the "expand tracks" function? Or does it still create millions of tracks that sometimes even exceed PT 256 track maximum wich usually ends with a crash?

-Have thy fixed the "automation doesn´t follow when nudging/trimming regions"-issue?

-Have they fixed the "remove selected" issue that always leaves unused behind?

-Do you you still get huge page-outs in memory-usage when working with MXF audio or you´ve opened a couple of OMFs in a row?

-Does PT8 work with Soundminer?

-Is there some kind of "do not create media larger than 2GB" preference to avoid consolidating when doing a transfer back to AVID or PT7.x and lower?

-Does PT8 import world-standard poly BWAVs with SMPTE track-layout now or are they still recognized as unreadable?

Thanks,

Frank.
