Makemusic said they would have a new release in 2013. The normal pattern would be to announce new releases in May or June so as to get into the pipeline for the new school year. That did not happen.
Another normal pattern is to not announce anything during August because much of the world is on vacation. August has come and gone. Yet another normal rule would be to get any new product on the streets by October 1 at the latest in order to catch anybody wanting to give an upgrade as a holiday gift. If that is to happen, we should see an announcement in the next 3 weeks. It seems a little surprising that there are no rumblings at all about this. Has everybody just given up? Or is a case that something won't be announced until December 31, 2013 for delivery in May 2014? I have a list of about 7 software products I use a lot that should have new releases before year end. If I were to upgrade all of them, that would probably be about $2500 and in fact I will probably only spend about $1000. At some point, secrecy can be taken too far. If I spend my budget before MM decides to say anything, then I probably won't upgrade Finale very soon. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
