Thomas W. Bethel:

I am wondering why all the problems with this version of WL? It is similar to what happened to WL when we went from WL 6 to WL 7. It seems as though a lot of the beta testers missed a lot of the problems. I have had to go back to WL 9.5.5 since I can no longer “trust” WL 10. Too many small “gotcha” problems. Any idea of when the patch will come out??? Thanks!!!

WL6 to WL7 was a major structural rewrite, which meant that sometimes to make the changes possible reliable legacy code was replaced with restructured code which sadly still had some bugs in. These things happen . In this case, we know that WL10 was meant to have multichannel file handling, but it couldn’t be completed in time; so it seems pretty clear to me that there has once again been major rewriting to accommodate that change, which is included but hidden in this release - and the completion and testing has been cut short by a marketing timetable. I imagine that after a couple of patch releases for this version, 10.1 will appear with the multichannel stuff enabled and better tested as well.

I certainly hope so. Releasing “buggy software” is not great for a professional tool like WL. I went back to 9.5.5 and will wait for the “a couple of patch releases for this version” to be done before I come back. I remember all the problems with WL7 and don’t want to mess up someone’s mastering due to “bugs” in the software. YUCK!
