How many upgraded to the 2011.5?

Post by Don Brown, Sr. »

Just putting a thought here, since I've been wondering exactly why it was that I just purchased the "Everything Pack" 2011 (on the HD) back in Dec 2010, and already, there was an upgrade to 2011.5 for another $165.00, with tons more real tracks, tutorials, etc, etc. Actually, $145.00 plus $15.00 shipping.

So just wondering how many others might have made that same move?

I'm still wondering why I went for it myself, when in fact, I'm just a beginner to BIAB.:?

I guess I'm wondering if I made the right decision, to stay on top of things :oops:

Thanks

Don

You bought the upgrade because you wanted the new Paul Franklin tracks.

No, nothing at all against Paul, for certain, but I'm only going to be using it for making my own backing tracks. So I sure don't want to use steel (other than myself) on the recordings.

That's my reason for asking the question of whether or not, I really needed to upgrade. I suppose the reason I did, was because I was seeing it was my last day to take advantage of that special price.

The above as well as, a whole lot of added features to make things lots better (easier) to work with.

I probably could have gotten away with just a plain old jane first edition they made, for what I'll be using it for.. But I do like the live tracks, as opposed to the sound of midi.

$164.00 is the same as 2 months of the garbage on Dish network. That makes keeping up to date seem like a bargin, :D IMHO of course. ELC

I seem to upgrade sporadically, depending on what the new features or Real Tracks are. I love Real Tracks, and the new stuff with Brent Mason, Paul Franklin, etc just make it better. I did not get the 2011.5 upgrade maily due to money being tight, but I probably will do the 2012 if and when.

The reason being that the 2012.5 will encompass all the feature upgrades of the 2011.5 plus the new RT sets plus some even newer ones and some new features. The bugs in the 2011.5 version will have been worked out, and while the 2012 may have a few of it's own, I won't have to spend time dealing with two sets of bug in less than a year.

Congrats on the upgrade though, it's a heck of a deal.

I might be a beginner now, but someday I'm gonna steel the show.

Thanks for all of the replies. And yes, now I don't feel bad about upgrading. I Agree, excellent value for the small cost.

Thanks again to all,

Don
