Any update from Matt that anyone knows about? Vital has become my go to for pretty much everything, but I would love to see a feature based update! (And I’m sure everyone here would too)

I would like too but this situation is so strange, I mean, why not let people know about an update or how things really are?
I’d recommend checking discord for any updates
Keep in mind it’s just a single dev, so he’s probably busy with life and his other jobs lol
with serum2 going 3x osc id love to see vital go 4x osc.
Serum 2 has 3 oscs, a sub osc and a noise osc so kinda 5 osc. Also the oscs work as samplers so there’s a lot to catch in that regard.
Maybe soon? from the serum 2 “pressure”? idk… Kind of sad hes basically ghosting his whole community in a way. Saw him online in discord a minute ago so he’s alive, so that’s good haha but other than that a “hey, all good, this is happening:” every 6 months would’ve been nice. The last official announcement on anything was v1.5, so almost 3 years ago with his one “im fine still working” message in the middle pff, has anyone seen the number of bugs 1.5 brought? I don’t use it and didn’t go pro because it crashed a bunch or had a ton of gui bugs.
Reaper DAW is developed by just 2 people and they’ve been accessible in the dev section of the forum basically every weekday for the past what, 10 years?
So the “it’s one person” thing either is so true it’s just dumb at this point to not hire someone else to AT LEAST monitor and keep this forum updated on what is happening or he just meh’s his way through it because he trusts his product, which okay i guess but do you really not see the abandonware tag is slowly creeping? Coming out of the blue like “hey here’s v2 after 3 or more years of ghosting” feels bittersweet.
I hope it’s because he just went all in on v2 or whatever was after 1.5 -considering the new graphics engine or whatever- but now it’s a huge task at his hands which feels like a david vs goliath thing. But still, don’t keep your people in the dark like this, if you don’t want to give a deadline it’s fine too. Slow progress is also progress.
So… maybe soon? or just maybe don’t hold your breath either. If anything I wish I could use vital more but the lack of support and updates gives me irk.
Nah don’t hold your breath. I bet we have fusion power before Vital update.
Just use and accept it as it is.
