Re: St Mary, Redcliffe

I would just like to mention, besides being a beautiful set, and huge, it downloaded very quickly and installed without issue!

Re: Ordering prebuilt custom PC from online companies

I bought my last PC through François Ratté http://www.hauptwerkconsultant.com/contact-us.html It was a very easy process and he fine-tuned the PC for HW before shipping to me. We discussed my needs beforehand, and he knows this stuff cold. The price was very good, too. Steve [Edited by admin to r ...

Re: Hauptwerk IX Early User Experience

No zoom sizes available except larger. Do you mean that you would find a value less than 100% (such as 75%) useful? I didn't include values <100% on the basis that I thought people would find them to be too small to see or use from a touch-screen. I use big screens (32, 32, 27) Since some of the ...

Re: Hauptwerk IX Early User Experience

Still trying to get used to the touch menu. Miss my large panels I hope this move is evolutionary. Overview doesn't fit vertically Floating divisions don't fit vertically No zoom sizes available except larger. Too many assumptions about what people want on which screens. I'd like to configure my own ...

Re: Upgrade to HW 9 - Missing Screenshoots

It's only the large control panels (which couldn't be docked anyway) that have been removed (with the touch menu replacing their functionality). That's really too bad. I had one 27" monitor (on the right) dedicated to seeing those large control panels all at once. One 32" for the organ on my left ...

Seems a little backwards to me.
But hey, I'm just a user.
FWIW, I have upgraded and installing right now.

Re: Upgrade to HW 9 - Missing Screenshoots

What an odd way to find out about a major upgrade. A complaint about missing screenshots! No email, no major topic announcement, not even an upgrade to the forum header which still boasts "HW 8 now available" The main HW website has it, but why would an existing user go there? (I see it's now ...

No, what it's getting is a lot of FREE demo downloads so that purchasers (did I mention $500?) can't access.
Something that should have been thought about first.
Not happy.

But there will be at least one, maybe two coming from us that could very well require in excess of 128gb.
