Good "Smart" advice, Bryan. No better way to screw up your DAW than to 
update and install in a hurry. BTW *always* do a restore point before an 
install/upgrade, and even better, an image if you have the means to do so.

Only minimal testing of Jaws 12 and CakeTalking has taken place. You can run 
it, but expect some surprise, somewhere. We'll announce official support 
after further testing and potentially a maintenance release of CakeTalking.

If you're using Sonar/CT on your every day computer, then you could install 
Jaws 12, leaving Jaws 11 installed, and run Jaws 11 when you plan to use 
Sonar.

On a DAW, though, try not to be in a hurry to always run the latest version 
of every piece of software that is available. It is more important to your 
productivity to run versions that are known to be strongly compatible, than 
it is to run the latest version of everything. In some cases, the older 
drivers for gear might be better than the new drivers. Not every Windows 
update is best for maintaining good performance on a DAW. If history is any 
teacher, Freedom Scientific will be offering a maintenance release of Jaws 
12 in just a few weeks.

Hi folks,

I just received word in my e-mail from Freedom Scientific that JFW 12 was 
released. I was wondering what the status is concerning CakeTalking 
functioning okay in this version. I know that there was some brief 
discussion on it a while back, but I may have missed something since.

I'll be running it on an XP machine; so what's the scoop? I'm not going to 
install version 12 until I know that CakeTalking will be all right with it.

Cheers!



Mike
