The software is Speed Download by Yazsoft, and this was around February or March of 2008. You should be able to find posts at Macheist and Macupdate. And also IIRC, another developer offered a discount for his competing software to users who had been burned by this marketing approach. Even then, some people said they would rather purchase a competing product.
#DSP QUATTRO 5 UPGRADE#
IIRC, one of the companies ended up giving users a free upgrade to the new version. I can think of 2 other companies that used the same approach as Amadeus, and for both this approach turned into a marketing fiasco, with dissatisfied customers posting their experience at various websites. With most developers there's a window of a couple of months to get a free upgrade, and the new version is announced in advance.
#DSP QUATTRO 5 PRO#
My main dissatisfaction with Amadeus Pro is that the upgrade was not mentioned earlier. I have no problem keeping 1.5.5, or paying an upgrade. I agree with you regarding some of the other "alternatives." And this was when they cost $200 and $250.
Both DSP-Quattro and Wave Editor have a very good reputation, and many reviews have referred to them as bargains. I've only had to contact them once and got a fast and friendly reply. You may want to contact the DSP people regarding the demo limitation.
#DSP QUATTRO 5 FOR FREE#
Do you get the new model for free if you own the older one? Why not? Do you work for free? Or do the comparison to a car. Other software too is upgraded and the programmers take money for that. In addition: Adobe Audacity: very good, very powerful, very expensive, $349īut why you wouldn't buy a software when the upgrade is around the corner? There's nobody forcing you to buy the upgrade. Wavelab does come with a suite of plugins for that purpose.ĭSP-Quattro: never used since now, tried to use demo, demo is not fully functional, can't record sound in the demo!?!? IIRC, neither of the applications I use have that feature and I don't recall having denoising plugins. Amadeus would have been a better and faster tool for that job. I received a vocal track a few months ago and spent maybe 10 or 15 minutes eliminating the noise that was present. It has a denoising feature that I find very useful. There was no indication that version 2 was coming out, or that it would be a paid upgrade.
As Martin wrote last month, " if anyone you know doesn't own Amadeus Pro yet, now would be a golden opportunity" Which brings us to the third editor, Amadeus Pro. I like Wave Editor's workflow better in this regard. I can also do this in other editors but I would have to select the precise segment, apply effects, and repeat the process for each segment that has the snare. I can make a copy for a new layer, automate fades, apply the effect (e.g., eq, compression), and preview the sound. If I want to edit a drum loop, and for example want to effect only the snare, Wave Editor makes it easy with the use of layers. I prefer how DSP-Quattro handles plugins offering many options (e.g., independent gain per channel, pre, post). I like both and use both for editing audio or previewing how a mixed song might sound after mastering. With DSP-Quattro (and JackOS X) I can fine tune my system with more precision and better sound quality, since I use my own AU/VST plugins (e.g., compressor, equalizer, reverb). I have a few "sound enhancers" in my system, such as HEAR which I don't like and Bongiovi DPS, which works only in iTunes. Using AU Lab was a solution so that I wouldn't have to launch a DAW, but now I just use DSP-Quattro for that purpose.Ģ. My copy of POD Farm 2 does not work in standalone mode. I often use DSP-Quattro for things I did not expect to do with it. I was mainly using Wave Editor when I saw that DSP-Quattro was on sale, so for $45 (cross-upgrade) it was hard to resist.Īlthough it's an editor just like Wave Editor, they don't have the same workflow and I often use them for different purposes.
