I, and I'm sure many others, find the naming terminology confusing.

This is especially so for the 'Pro Pak', which actually has the minimum feature set. The base software is the same for all versions, and the Pak name describes the added features in terms of included RealTracks, RealDrums and available Styles.

The term 'Pro-Pak' signifies that it is the 'Professional' edition, which it certainly isn't.

In my view, it should be named 'Essentials', 'Lite', 'Beginner', 'Entry', 'Starter' or something similar.

It is very confusing. I usually message PGM and ask them to see which add on(s) I do not have.

Though I still find very confusing PGM's this PAK, that PAK, ProPAK, MegaPAK, UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, PlusPAK EverythingPAK(?), OmniPAK, Audiphile Edition(?), meaning of RealTracks vs RealBand, numerous Add-Ons that my or may not be included in various bundles. That confusion dissuaded me for quite a long time from upgrading.


Based again on some of the content of this thread, a more realistic naming convention would save a huge amount of ongoing confusion, hesitation, and user frustration.
