No way it could be less, otherwise, how could the sub even WORK with such low usage, I thought. And was still more than happy with a 20 min usage, although I accepted that programs will vary on time of course. Still, a universe away from earlier generations in usage time. Yet, here we are with the OGSF release and halving that number, wow. Numbers don't lie, like you say, so they must be for real! And exactly, if they need to be reworked based off new info down the road, that can easily be done. But deeply shocking numbers so far...
Oh wow... @Shannon, that is AMAZING NEWS!!! I can't wait for X4A-1600, it will be an instant purchase. Seems like very soon, I will finally experience 6G at last. It's been such a long wait, so much patience, so much faith...soon it seems then that at long last, the wait will be over for me. That's absolutely fantastic news. Thank you so deeply! 6G LFG!!!
Volumes and usage times are of course dependent on the generation used, the goals of the program and they are influenced by what of the available options that result makes the customer happiest when it comes to modeling the best usage times. When we have two seriously contradictory factors (the raw power of 6G vs the sensitivity of something like working with GSF) it tends to get a bit hairy. Less time per day works better because it doesn't push too hard. I think we're going to see usage times vary between roughly 5 and 30 minutes per day for most types of goals in 6G. But the numbers will be calculated on a case by case basis. We shall see.
I was wanting to publish OGSF before 1600. I'm working on 1600 right now. Most of the optimizations and adjustments are done, but I have to go through with a fine tooth comb through every statement and make sure everything is optimized, and optimized fully. With 6G, once the script is finished, I can usually build it from text to a finished subliminal in about 1-2 days, depending on whether or not I encounter unexpected issues with build, QC check and various other little gotchas I have to be vigilant for. in 5.11G, this same process required 5 to 7 days. So X4A-1600 will be available very soon. I should be finished building it later today or tomorrow, and then I have to build the product description and calculate usage patterns, etc.
The 6G build process is MUCH faster, but I am planning to do no more than 2 to 3 titles a month because I need to spend time learning a new DAW, and I need to start working more rest time into my work flow. Burning out is not how to accomplish things.
Please remember, however, that developing a script from scratch, or developing a new script addition, is no faster than before. So with new stuff, or stuff that has to be completely re-worked (AM7, BASE, etc.) it will not be quick.
I get what you mean on the complexity of something like OGSF. Sorry you had to state that, because I was originally going to add into my comment that due to the sensitivity of GSF removal, it makes sense you'd want to "tread lightly" as one progresses to not overwhelm. So truthfully, it made some logical sense to me why OGSF had a lower time. I suspect EPHRA, perhaps OF, will also reflect such smaller times, compared to the majority.
That is mind blowing, @Shannon...I'm so used to "sometime this month"...meaning late in the month etc. This new build is shocking with the speed of implementation. My god. Wow. So next week it will be accessible?...That's jaw dropping, haha. Wow.
I understand the difference to a "from scratch" sub, for sure. It's come in handy that X4A-1511 was already an "advanced" platform to build on to top it up to 6G then.
This is absolutely fantastic news! I can't wait to use 6G next week then...this is amazing, Shannon. Thank you so much! I can't wait to fire it up and experience 6G at last! It's been a jaunt to get here, from my first listen to ASC 5G to convince me this was the place to be for me, many many moons ago now...
