Just ordered the upgrade, I have the original version, though Scaler 2 is possibly better at this time, but the bandmate feature sounds like it could be good.

I look forward to seeing more YouTube user demos @PhilKing ;

Will post them in here if I find any that are particularly interesting.

It's not released until May 16th.  I just took advantage of the upgrade price.

I will definitely be pre-ordering too  @PhilKing ;

The window resize feature on its own will be useful, I'm not sure how clever the 'bandmate feature' will be, but it's an interesting idea.

Was that for £79 @spark240 ? 
I saw something about an extra $20 discount for ordering now, but I can't find an option to apply that extra discount at any point in the purchasing process.  I'm assuming that £79  is their standard upgrade price(?)

Couldn't find any further discount....it was 79 Euro which via Paypal was £72.

I think the Upgrade is €79 & if you order after its released (May 16th) then it will cost €99.

Edit: Pre-order purchased, I'm really looking forward to trying this out on May 16th.

'Suggest Chords' looks like a useful tool
