Skybird,

The testing I did went very well. I've been running my shows with the latest beta versions of 4.0 for two weeks now and my singers love it (ME TOO!). 4.0 IS EVERYTHING THEY SAY AND MORE. Be ready, be very very ready!

Jim

(I don't feel I'm qualified to speak on behalf of admin but they (MTU) have been working around the clock to get 4.0 released and they have to sleep sometime. ADMIN, please forgive me if I over stepped my bounds here but running my shows with 4.0 for two weeks has me excited and I have to share! )

Hey Jim, just out of curiosity is it true that you only have 512k of ram on the machines you are running 4.0 beta on? I was just curious to know if a ram increase might be needed for the new version. Thanks, Henry

1 gig is recommended, But 2 Gig is my preference.

Must Have IE7 And Media Player 11 or 12 installed.....

Jim, sounds like the program on stage is working good. But what about importing Videos???? Have you tried this? I have hundreds of videos that need to be added. It's time consuming to use WMP to look them up while doing a Show & the singers never check that list in the back of the book. Several times, I have discovered that some songs were available on video, that the singers asked for but I didn't have time to look up for them.

Thanks Jim. I have 1g on one and 1.5g on the other. I also have a new laptop with 2g and Windows XP just in case. I am pleased to hear that it will run with 512 without all the other things running. I pretty much just use hoster during my shows. Sincerely, Henry

Sorry Jim - I see you don't run videos in your show, so you would not have tested that import feature!!!

Guess I'll just have to be a little more patient

Yes it's ture but keep a few things in mind.

!. I do not use Windows Media Player during my shows.

2. I do not use PCDJ

3. I do not run videos during my shows.

If these points apply to you you CAN run 4.0 with 512 of ram but I would do as Gary and MTU suggest and get more ram to insure that 4.0 runs well for you under all conditions.

It's not hype, 4.0 is great. I know. I used it for my show last night. My singers love the Singer Databse and the Estimated Time they sing features. There are alot of bases MTU has to cover before a new version of a program can be released. You won't be disappointed, hang in there. They want you to have it as much as you want it.
