still waiting here

ditto

[tim in jersey]

i emailed jon of sound devices for approval

Can you PM me his addy? It's been over 2 weeks now, and I'm growing a bit impatient.

I'm still waiting too. But I thought I would wait until I actually got my 722 before I start e-mailing them

Doubtful that you'll get approval at the moment. This is NAB, I'm sure Jon and company are there.

I haven't had issues with formatting CF on any of the firmware builds. I always formatted a card before doing the firmware upgrade. I guess I haven't tested it in 1.32 yet, since there isn't a 'next' firmware at this point. Agreed on going to 1.32, though.

[Brian]

they probably have gone through with that many updates but have just released the ones they know of as the most stable and updated.

just a guess though.  the random number thing is very strange.

[Brian]

yeah but it seems like they NEED to avoid confusion in the testing process

[Lil Kim Jong-Il]

What nic said.  I've worked lots of places where we did this with our embedded firmware.   Sequential major release numbers like "Peggy 6.0" are helpful for marketing SW to the general public but not really very useful for stuff like this.

yeah but it seems like they NEED to avoid confusion in the testing process

Actually this sort of does avoid confusion in QA.  The other numbers were most likely release candidates that didn't pass testing.  So in their development environment there is no confusion on which versions should be in the wild.

[MattD]

huh...i guess that makes sense, i just would've thought that they don't number it until it's released to avoid confusion

Release numbering is really an in-house type of thing. Version control is critical to any software development process. I guess they just chose to make those version numbers public as well.

oh i know.  i was just joking around.  it's a completely logical process.

i can't wait to see when this thing is perfected(hopefully soon).  then all of those jb3 runnin 722 bashers will quiet down.......namely bean

by then i would have made 500 24-bit recordings w/ the new m-audio device

seriously, i wish this thing was the icing on the cake, but damn if it isnt overrated/overpriced IMO

its been like 3 years since they 'said'it would be released shortly, now they cant even get the firmware down

ok, sorry, im leaving the 722 threads for a few years til they perfect theyre firmware

I thnk you are wrong IMHO.

its been like 3 years since they 'said'it would be released shortly, now they cant even get the firmware down

firmwares have been updated constantly.  It's going to happen sooner than you think.  this latest firmware update might be the fix we are looking for.

ok, sorry, im leaving the 722 threads for a few years til they perfect theyre firmware

thanks! I'll be sure to keep my head out of tens of "jb3 problem" threads
