about that, the cost of a Pro Tools Workstation either on
Windows or Mac is prohibitive in itself. The LE version
puts this into the arena of "more accessible," even with
Apple's percentage would not hurt so much is there were
a lot of people interested. At 150, people immediately
just go on to the next app, at 80, that's better, but it still
excludes a lot of people. At 10? I would buy it
immediately, but one thing prohibits me: I use a
Windows workstation.
I acquire software, Pro Tools Plugins, Helper apps,
remotes, Shuttles, and even iPhone apps on the basis of
two things: Cost #1, and #2, am I going to use it enough
to validate a purchase.
Then, we have to worry about if these applications we
have laid out over a grand for, will even work, especially
with the big ugly appliance-based Windows 8 stating at
us. Mac is difficult enough as is, with each version of any
application you pay 500 dollars for not even working in
the next version os OSX. At least Windows based apps
are friendly enough to work on Windows XP, Vista and 7.
Since I have heard that Microsoft is not going to consider
backward-compatibility in Windows 8, that scares not
only me but every other Windows user in the world.

Right now, I use Mobile Mouse/Air Mouse, and also a
Contour Shuffle. I'd really like to have THIS app though,
I'll buy it the moment I can run it on Windows. I hope you
can develop it. Sounds like what you need are people
who can help you out, well I'll pray that happens.
Good Luck, I'll keep my eye in here, I hope something
happens for you that will allow you to keep working on
apps like this.
working on Windows. The work is almost done (we replaced a
only work on WinXP)... The next beta will work on Win7 and is
much simpler to install as well. I'm hoping it will be available
