Subject: My Thoughts On The Manual
Message #6763
Hi All, Just thought I'd add my two cents. I've been a _long time_ user of Logic and have paid for many upgrades that came with an addendum as opposed to a completely rewritten manual. (anyone remember 3.0?, It was a 2.6 manual with an addendum booklet; or 1.7, or 2.0, etc.). I don't think it is irregular or unusual at all for upgrades to come with addendum booklets. They can't be expected to completely rewrite the manual with each upgrade can they? So 4.0, like many other paid upgrades came with an addendum booklet. What's the big deal? It's not different from many other past upgrades. New purchasers got a package with the current manual at the time and an update addendum booklet. Again, what's the big deal? Nothing different than in the past when people bought 2.0 or 3.0. etc. So it just so happens that now that Emagic has rewritten the manual yet again, that it doesn't correspond time wise with the release of a major paid upgrade. Their timing is off; the new manual came at a different point in time. Everyone is acting like they're "owed" this manual by Emagic. Nonsense. Everyone got exactly what they paid for and the most current documentation at the time of their purchases. It would be nice if Emagic made some policy for people who purchased recently (after a certain cut off date), so that they could have the new manual available to them at a reduced cost. But it would just be a goodwill gesture. I don't feel they "owe" it to anybody. Maybe they should wait and call this the 4.1 manual and release it with the next update (with a small addendum booklet of course:-))? Would everyone then still feel like they were "owed" it to them free of charge? -- Eli Krantzberg Nightshift Orchestra Almat Productions
