I think it should be, “batch” processing rather than “bath” processing.
good spot!
Love Sample Manager – I use it almost daily. But I bought it for 80 bucks 1,5 years ago and now they want another 80 bucks for a new version with a new name? I am very much aware that software developing takes time and money – but it’s a miss that they don’t offer any upgrade pricing for existing customers.
But on the other hand SM3 is doing its job just fine and I have no real need for a new version, so it’s not a huge loss.
I tried Triumph when it came out, and it had one of the most poorly designed user interfaces I had ever used. This looks like a nearly identical application.
I have almost all of their products. I am very happy with sample manager, it does what i want with no hassle, but i don’t see any reason to buy this..
On the other hand triumph after so many years is still a disaster. I had many hopes but there are so many basic shortcomings (soloing a layer and recording into the application for example were never implemented and how difficult would it be for the first to happen??).
The whole idea about actions is nice if what you need is available, if what you need is not then scripting, and/or buying that action is a total pita and makes no sense in a professional environment. The editor is not exactly the environment where i want to program, when i do i can use max, supercollider etc
This looks useful, but after such a terrible experience with Triumph (which in no way could have been designed by someone who had previously used any audio software) there’s no way I’d buy this. I finally gave up trying to learn the intricacies of Triumph and went with WaveLab.
