Yep the buggars are at it again, trying to get you to part with cash. (We've all got to make a living I suppose!)

The propack is still for sale at the online shop.

According to the creamware newsletter, it will be available until april 21st.
What are the odds that the v3.1 will be released on this date?
I leave that one for you to decide.

Well, to my surprise, toward the end of that letter, CW mentioned that v3.1 will be released "at the end of April". Was really glad that CW mentioned a more specific timetable

I actually find, that the way CW handles their delay this time is much better than earlier. Ingo stated on the CW forum, that they are in the last stage fixing small bugs, and it might take 2 weeks, BUT he would not promise anything (I like that - no, I am not kidding - I do). I believe it will be out this month.

Native Instruments are doing exactly the same thing. Kontakt was supposed to be out in March and only a few days ago they said "late April". But the Absynth for PC is still listed as being released in March !

So it's just standard industry practice. Whether it's just marketing optimism or a cynical way to create excitement and anticipation, who knows...

oh man I think everybody at Creamware is on top now, imagin how it looks these days at Creamware devellopment department, this is THE update!
The longer they work on, the better it will be!

BTW I would be glad if the Noah wasn't the next release, just because I'm waiting for Pulsar/Mac OS-X.
Cubase SX wants OS-X...

I think it might be a sign that they are putting more effort into testing their products. It sounds like in the past Creamware have released software with bugs in and are making an effort to improve in this area. Surely this is a good thing.

I dont see the point being cynical about before its released. Wouldn't you prefer them to spend an extra month making sure the software is ready than releasing buggy software just to make deadlines (set by marketting departments)?

do hope that is a good sign

last update is a delay of 2~3 week as well.

don't expect too much.
