Some enlightenment about the industry.

Having been part of a large newsgroup within Cakewalks inner workings now for the past 6 months. I have been privaliged to see the other side, or inside of the industry that serves us the end users. And it honestly has really opened my eyes in more then one way. I now have even more respect, and understanding of the people who write the software, build the hardware, and overall just give us the tools to make the music we make. Besides looking at the inside, I now have a better understanding of why certain things work and other dont, why some software/hardware play together well and why some dont. I also understand the constant upgrades and updates as well now. It all boils down to the saying, If you want to play with the big dogs!

Anyway, I read an article that might be of interest to some, as well might not be to others. It is writen by Ron Kuper who manages the software group for Cakewalk, and it honestly shows they have concern for solving some of the incompatability issues we as end users face every day. Its a long article, but well worth the read. And dont let the money comments misslead you, its not all about the money. And follow some of the links, especially the going to the Project Bar-B-Q there is also lots of enlightenment there as well.
