Subject:24 bit support ???

I love soundforge, it is a fantastic piece of
software. But will it EVER hit the benchmark everyone else
seems to have hit at least a year ago? I once called the
company to ask this question, and the person told me "get
acid or vegas, they're 24-bit." As any of us who have used
these products know they are not at all interchangable.
Vegas is now entering version 2, SF has been on 4.5 since
before vegas was ever released, its time to upgrade the
product that got you here guys. Also, in responding to this post
please don't say "24-bit support is coming," i was told it was coming
2 years ago, give us at least a ballpark figure.
Please, we love your products, but the world is in 24-
bit now, don't make us switch to wavelab by default.

Hi.

I think most of us over here agree over here, too. I know I do.

We've started work on it - it's not just some mythical story. :)

We still don't have the release date though, but once we do, I will
make sure to let all of you know.

Heya,

Seeing as how this post is almost 5 months old, is there a
chance we can see something here? I have to stand with Alan on
trying to get answers, it would seem you guys are very tight lipped,
when in fact you shouldn't be. Know I understand how empty promises
can make for angry customers (take ID's Quake I release for instance
(or any Quake release)), but, I will say that in making those
promises, production time was stepped up and developers worked
overtime to make sure when it did hit, it hit hard and everyone was
won over! So, armed with this knowledge and considering you have
competition (Wavlab is already 24bit) isn't it about time you gave us
all at least a ballpark estimate (IE quarter III 2000)?!
