This is really great news, but it raises the question, "If Emagic >has been aware of this problem (which I beleive it has) should there not be >some sort of compensation to its users for beta testing ( not to mention the >enormus amount of frustration trying to make something work that >just doesn't)? This is a misunderstanding. You think that there are bugs in the AutoLink communication. This not true, AutoLink is working as advertised. However you have to configure a lot and also have to know your MIDI devices very well, so that you know which bank select formats to use and how to set this up in Logic. Additionally you must know which MIDI channels are used in which mode and have to make SoundDiver know this information. Only then, AutoLink name providing works. All these issues will be gone with SDL. >Oh, I have an idea....give it away to those first time users who came onboard >at version 4.0. We will not give away SoundDiver 3.0 for anyone who bought it before April 1. For more than 2 years (since version 2.0), all SoundDiver updates have been free of charge. Now it's time to charge for an update. -- Beste Gruesse - best regards, Michael Haydn EMAGIC Soft- und Hardware GmbH SoundDiver Group Executive Logic Windows Developer Unitor8 Control Project Manager
