This manual thing is really pissing me off.
Q.

It should. It seems people from UK is now able to tell their distributor (Edirol UK) that they want the US version. Maybe you guys in Australia could do the same?

I think this is a one time glitch though, even if it's a bad one. Cakewalk do seem willing to listen to reason when they mess up.

Still just flipping through the Euro-manual, it looks as though there is nothing new here. 99% of it is what I already no, how to mute a track, insert an effect etc. - only things I already know. And they even repeat all this in two other languages I happen to be able to read too. It is worthless, useless, waste of book shelf space.

So sad, all those trees...
;)
 
In case someone wants to know as this primarily seems to be a "Scandinavian thread" . Been in contact with Roland in Sweden and they relayed the questions to Scandinavian hq so I guess this is a valid answer for Norway and Denmark also.

The English manual will be available in printed form as an "extra". Price is not set yet but they target self cost + delivery.

The US offer for Project 5 and kinetics at a greatly reduced price for Sonar 4 users will be available to us in the near future. (I Just hope we don't have to buy kinetics but can go for just Project 5 as in the US deal.)

I don't think you have any understanding for the economy of your own country (Sweden).

Paper is made from pine-wood that grows in Sweden, not rainforrest trees as people often think. CO2-balance is neutral. The carbondioxide produced by burning paper is absorbed by growing forrests and converted into new trees. Furthermore, the value of recycling paper can be questioned because it is costly and chemicals are used in the process.

So just go on producing paper from Swedish trees and sell it to Cakewalk and others who make these unecessarily bulky multilanguage manuals. Good for Swedish economy!

:D

If it's not the Canadian bastards who get the deal...

My number one objection to paper recycling is that it's often a mess and not properly handled. Locally we're obligated to recycle paper. But until recently they just stacked it up and dumped it when the piles got to high...
 
Btw Tombuur - you do know I was ironically refeering to a Cakewalk thread about the trees?
