    well, shure, I know this announcement. It just sounded as if you had special insider info.
    There are definitely too many meanings of 'soon' I guess.

    And btw no reason to be upset <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

    I'm hype for this. A beatmaker 2 noob but I'm hype.

    I respect the bm2 developers alot but announcing an update as "soon" and then having such a huge gap in communication is a bit irresponsible. It only serves to irritate the hardcore user base. Just an honest opinion, no hate.

    It's been a month since they posted the feature list. As they haven't posted anything about it being submitted to Apple yet, I would guess they're still testing it and working out bugs. Hopefully it won't be much longer though.

    Soon in dev world doesnt mean anything actually, it isnt just intua that does this....

    It'll be at least 6 months, before the next (2.4) update from intua according to the usual upgrade path...that is, if, there indeed is an update rather than a new app. The problem with this, audiobus is coming...and according to the devs of it...if there is core midi in the app it is a five minute add on to your existing code. Hopefully when this becomes available Intua will take 15 minutes and throw it in there...not every update needs to be enormous!

    That feature will make alot of things i bitch about, fixed!

    At the end of the day, we are only customers...as we all paid 20 bucks
    The fact that it even works for twenty bucks is amazing...in the hardware world, you cant buy a quality cable for that...but in the app world...money has more value i suppose
