Promise of Demo Was to Shut Us Up
Yea, it was put out there to shut everyone up to give them time to censor every single post and thread that spoke the truth.
They really are flying by the seat of thier pants!

Re: Promise of Demo Was to Shut Us Up
I think announcing the demo was just a way to adjust the negative focus into a somewhat positive. The focus needs to remain on the upgrade price. Im on HD9 Native, $999 for PTHD 10??? Well we dont need to go there again. Its great to get a demo, but either way the price is too much, even the $600 for that support plan.
Less focus on the demo, and more pressure on the price people!

Re: Promise of Demo Was to Shut Us Up
X vs.Y threads (Mac vs. PC, Pro Tools vs. Nuendo, etc.)
- X vs Y is OK when comparing PT9 to PT 10 OR comparing PT10 to PT HD 10 as they work to generate sales. X vs Y will be shut down when comparing the amount of features someone gets for the dollar with an upgrade price to other companies. BTW on the demo, I dont see it as a bad thing that AVID put out a demo. It could be a great thing for some users to try out PT 10 before they purchase it. |

Re: Promise of Demo Was to Shut Us Up
JN - I was speaking directly to his claim that we created it to shut everyone up and give us time to censor every single post and thread. Neither of these are true.

And to be fair, you axed a LOT of threads/posts.. The 'why' will have to be left up to those concerned.. but it was lopsided in my personal experience and opinion. just sayin..

Re: Promise of Demo Was to Shut Us Up
nah, they'll put out the demo, they are just really slow about things.
Either way, Im still rocking along just fine in PT9. Can't wait for the demo though, i want to see how she works in Windows 8.

Re: Promise of Demo Was to Shut Us Up
Again, he said we censored every post and thread, and that is not true. Our goal was not to remove opinions or criticism (we actually encourage those), but we did remove insults and personal attacks.

Re: Promise of Demo Was to Shut Us Up
You and I will just have to disagree on this point DTS.
