 Chicken Systems CD Status Update
November 21st, 2012 - For the past several years, we have been concentrating on developing our New Generation (NewGen™) of applications. These include Translator Mac Universal Binary, Constructor, Instrument Manager, SamplerTools, Kontakt Assistant, MV Kit Creator, and several more.
This NewGen™ technology enables us to provide a level of support unmatched, plus release all our apps on Mac and Windows with identical interfaces and features. It provides for a completely common framework used in every app, enabling consistant support and reusable, powerful technology.
So, many customers have gotten the firstfruits of this technology via instant download, as we have decided not to print any CD/DVD's until the main products - the SamplerTools trio of Translator, Constructor, and Instrument Manager, were feature complete.
Since the downloads work perfectly, there has been no reason to rush to get the CD's printed. A mature CD release is good for everyone, as it is less dependent on the "you must update this copy" annoyance. We also surveyed our customers - most of them would rather wait for these new pressed copies.
Some people want their CD's NOW. So, if you would like some type of CD right away, we can always send your package immediately. The only differences are:
- CD-R one-off (not pressed)
- The one-off will have an earlier version on it (remember this doesn't matter much, as all updates are free).
Again, since the temp download works fine until the CD arrives, most people elect to wait for the pressed CD's. BUT IT IS UP TO YOU! If you want the CD IMMEDIATELY, email us at [email protected] and EXPLICITLY request the ONE-OFF CD.
What we mean about "explicitly" is that if you want the one-off CD, please ask for it in those terms, such as "we would like the one-off CD sent immediately."

GOOD NEWS: We got new Translator CD's in last June and over the summer and fall we have been incrementally sending them out. If you have not got your CD, please let us know. All Motif Creator, Ensoniq MIDI-Disk Tools, and Ensoniq Disk Tools should have their CD's already.
For the other products, we are starting the manufacturing process. Our current goal is to get everything out by the end of the year (2012). We are waiting for new versions to be released. These products include:
- Constructor™
- Instrument Manager™
- MV Kit Creator™
- Kontakt Assistant™
- SamplerTools™
Any futher questions: email us at [email protected] or call us at 320-235-9798 - 800-877-6377.
