Checking in to take the pulse on N6. I’m on N5.5.6 - wondering what people feel are the greatest advantages in moving to 6 and the greatest drawbacks? I have not purchased N6 yet so I haven’t had my hands on it.
Would anyone recommend waiting until the next maintenance release at the end of the year? If it’s ready to go into service I’m happy to spend the money to upgrade. If it’s not, there are a lot of things I could spend $400 on that would help me right now and I have a system that’s functioning.
I often find it’s the little things that mean the most. The change in the breakpoints in N5 to larger squares and the automatic full screen crosshairs made a big difference to my workflow. Does N6 make your job easier?
I actually haven’t been using the control room, but its interesting to know its a problem.
The point about it being a year since release was why I was hoping it might finally be ready. With other major releases it was just about bug fixes but this time the complaints seem to be more structural. I hope SB/Yamaha didn’t do something absurd like alienate the larger user-base just to satisfy the handful of people who will ever buy the Nuage.
