Hey Sony, package deal?

Just a thought, for those who might be on the fence about Cinescore, and the talk of its integration(somehow) w/ Vegas
I for one could be pushed over the edge if they also offered a promo deal of a V7,DVDA4 and Cinescore package at a special offer price.

justa thought like I said ......

I agree. I was almost ready to buy Cinescore, but will wait until after V7/DVDA4 purchase. A package of all 3 would be ideal.

Quick Stupid Question: I write my own scores for film, while normally I record them in Cakewalk Sonar, I could easily shift over to ACID or Cinescore (if you can record in Cinescore). Is Cinescore good for original composers? Or is it more for people looking to fit pre-made stuff into their videos?

Cinescore is good for original composers if you're in a hurry to generate a semi-original theme, that you might want to score over top of. It's not as indepth as ACID or Sonar; it's much more like SonicFire Pro.
Although I often compose my own pieces for corporate, commercial, and dramatic works, I've also found myself using Cinescore a lot lately, and then adding my own pieces to it to make it really unique, and sweet. As more libraries become available, I suspect it will become a tool that composers turn to for ideas, as much as anything else. You can always drop a completed Cinescore piece into ACID or Sonar to beef up as well.

There will be a package deal. It's available in the academic channel, so hopefully it will be available at retail.

It appears to include Vegas 7, DVDA 4, AC3, Cinescore, Training, VisionSeries disc, maybe other stuff as well.
