Will anyone, preferably Sony, comment about an update (fixes) to 9.0c?

I am not looking for a specific date. How about weeks, months in the future?

Hopefully it will also include CD Architect and Noise Reduction.

What is it that you are expecting to be fixed?

Everything that people, including myself, have been bitching about since you released it I should think

I have only one specific feature I would like to see fixed, and that is very minor - http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/forums/ShowMessage.asp?ForumID=3&MessageID=542541

I just thought that there would be more updates. Sony was very prompt with a, b, and c. I commend you for that.

Just a comment on my part. There appear to be several threads in this forum indicating some features have been deleted in V9. I just migrated from SF Audio Studio V 8 to SF V 9, so I can't comment on that. Maybe some are just letting off steam. One thread that just now appeared is - http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/forums/ShowMessage.asp?MessageID=559132

I am new and a relatively simple user. It does what I want.

I think that response by J. says it all right there. WOW!! Really sad and unfortunate.

Existing TLEN values will be updated with length changes in the next update.

I'm not able to comment on when the next update will be available, other than, er, soon-ish.

If you are using the pro version of Forge, you can use this small script to update TLEN so you don't have to type it in manually.

using System;

using SoundForge;



public class EntryPoint 

{

    public void FromSoundForge(IScriptableApp app) 

    {

        ISfFileHost file = app.CurrentFile;

        if (null == file)

            return;



        long msLength = (long)Math.Ceiling(file.Length * 1000.0 / file.SampleRate);

        file.Summary[(uint)SfSummaryInfo.FourCCLabel.TextLength] = msLength.ToString();

    }



} //EntryPoint

Copy the code to Notepad and save it as "Update TLEN.cs" in the Script Menu folder . Then select Tools->Scripting->Rescan Script Menu folder or restart Forge 9.0. It will show up in the Tools->Scripting menu and you can also add it to a toolbar if you wish.

Heh, yeah, that could have been worded better. I wasn't trying to be snide. I just wanted clarification on whether he was talking about the TLEN thing or something else.

I was not offended by anyone here. This is a very professional forum.

"About" says the following:
Sound Forge Software
Version 9.0c (Build 405)

I assume that it is the professional version, but I am not sure. Is it the professional one?

I know that it is not the SF Sudio Studio version.

I accept the comment "soonish." I know that companies cannot comment on exact dates for releases. That would open a whole can of worms.

Keep up the good work at Sony and everyone on this forum.

Yes, if it is not Audio Studio, it is the pro version and you are free to use the script I posted previously.

I appreciate your understanding on our inability to post specific dates or timeframes here.
