It's getting to be that time of year! I can't wait for even MORE real tracks and features. Maybe some new MIDI styles too?
Thanks

is that how it works....there is a new retail release every year and the 1/2 yearly update we get free?
what did you guys pay for the update from 2010 to the new BIAB 2011?

I believe the mid-term BIAB/RB update (2011 to 2011.5) is free -- it has been in the past. But if you want the realdrum/realtrack updates, then you have to pay a reasonable fee. It has always seemed like a fair deal to me -- although I don't always get the mid-year RT updates (but I always really, really want them!!).

Of course, don't forget, there are no promises that the way it was done in the past will continue unchanged.

I would think at this very moment in time all the beta testers are busy figuring out any bugs in 2011.5  musiclover

Has there been an invite for beta testers? I didn't see one but I'm not here every day.
The harder I work the luckier I get.

I think it is by closed invitation only and based on a persons number of posts in the forum. You may have a while since I have not yet seen anything come my way..  <see my sig. - I really have no idea just my wierd sense of humor today and I am trying to run up my forum post number to get an invite  >

I have no idea what the criteria for beta tester selection is, but I am fairly confident it is not based on the number of forum posts. No need to 'run up' the post count.
Dan, I think you were kidding, anyway. Your posts are always ones of substance.

Some questions have been asked by PG about Asio, so I hope they sort out the Asio and VST issues.

Keep your eyes peeled on the mainpage of www.pgmusic.com towards September, which has been around the time that pgmusic posts there asking for new beta testers to sign up. It has nothing at all to do with forum posts. --Mac

Never had any ASIO issues once I switched to MME.
I did write a book on ASIO for dummies (me).
It goes like this:
Front Page: ASIO for Dummies
Inside: Copywrite J. D. Conley 2002
Chapter 1. The Beginning
I tried ASIO for one month. I lost my mind. I lost my hair. I became obsessed.
Chapter 2. The Switch
I dumped ASIO for MME. It worked. I really had a nice keyboard and I didn't need to play another synth, I chucked the midi in cable in the cable bin and left it there.
Chapter 3. Utopia
Everything works and is predictable.
Chapter 4. Review
Don't try it. It might work. It probably won't. Ask WHY?
________________________________________________________________
Please send X$ to me because you now realize that ASIO is truly ...for dummies. I've been there and got the t-shirt. But my wife makes me wear the other one that says:
You don't want that.
You don't need that.
We are not going there.
Period.
If you are not yet married, print the above out and post it as a reminder.
If you do take the plunge look for someone about 12 years younger with nursing skills and culinary ability.

If they did ask me to be a beta tester I'd think they had no criteria for choosing one. Despite uing Biab for many years and updating at least once a year I mostly use Biab as the worlds coolest metronome.

This is the hardest lesson for younger guys to learn. It took me a long time I'll tell ya that but everything is cool now.
The secret to a happy marriage? Do what the wife wants.
As one of the old time bluesmen said years ago "if the lady of the house ain't happy, ain't nobody happy".
Guys think they're giving up their manhood or something. A sincere woman won't take advantage of that, well, usually anyway (who's perfect, eh?) you're not going to be 'whipped and that's the real lesson.

The secret to a long and happy marriage is to always let the man have the last word.
And the last word is always, "Yes, dear!"

Having bought 2011 and given quite a bit of money to PG over this number of years I was actually looking forward to the free mid year upgrade of the program though I do realise that the new realtracks cost extra.
But I guess its PG's call at the end of the day, but still feeling that bit disappointed.
