A user on the Logic TDM group reports that his fresh v5 CD (no Logic Control) installed version 5.0.1 with ES2, EVOC and DOT. Is it officially out? My CD (4>5 kit) installs 5.0.0 , and the web-updater seemingly doesn't do much more than reinstalling VSM. Does anyone know if you are supposed to look for v5 updates on the Emagic-site as before or if you have to reinstall every morning to check for the newer version? M

None of the above! You're stuck with 5.0.0 for now. There are no dowloadable 5.x.x updates at the moment either directly or via the intstaller. The fact that these are not available perhaps suggests that a more general downloadable 5.x update is pretty close to release?? Having said than it does seem a little strange that Emagic have chosen to produce a 5.0.1 CD rather than to continue with the 5.0.0 CD which has the facility to automatically update the program during the install routine. What's the point of having an auto-update feature if you're not going to use it? Sorry to sound a but grumpy but I really want to play with the ES2!!! (which some people can do now). On that note, does anyone know when the ES2 will be in the shops? G.

What's the point of having an > auto-update feature if you're not going to use it? I wondered that myself when I installed 4.x after I first got it. I got a LAWP 4.6.2 CD from the box, and after installing it the auto- updater downloaded 4.7.2. I had to go and download/install 4.8.1 manually even though 4.8.1 had been out for quite some time this January of 2002. So even in 4.x Emagic doesn't seem to want to really use their auto-updater for some reason. "Just one of those Emagic mysteries..." :-) Jeremy
