I simply don't see where it isn't perfectly logical to not expect very much before the new Pro Tools release comes out.

Because the only guy who ever did "any" coding on the 11R is no longer with the company and they haven't done anything with the 11R in two years.

At the moment I am so angry that I am beyond the capacity for rational thought.

The only way we would see any further development would be if we all bought a huge number of shares and elected, I don't know ... say Benoni, to the board of directors, other than that we have no chance.

I stand corrected - I confused M-Boxes with FastTracks....

OTOH, are we really surprised at the lack of attention 11 gets? Avid's real market is high-end, "tens-or-hundreds-of-thousands-of-dollars" commercial audio and video installations, not $700 consumer products (call it "prosumer" if you want, it's still not their HD pro-studio stuff).

Bob, the fast track are still being sold until supplies last, but they are on their end of sales or EOL if you prefer.

This comes from avid and I have had the permission to post it. (meant to the person who actually deleted my post in this thread with the same chart in it)

The challenge... Keep on topic without repeating what's already been offered.

Actually this information is pretty recent (less than a month old), and not all of the m-audio line were sold to iNMusic.
