1.09 patch help anyone?

[soundsubs]

so, its been awhile since access gave us the update. has the 1.0.9 hotfix helped anyone with the so called "satan saw"? any other issues?
i havent noticed any changes from 1.0.9, and still using the polar every day. i have noticed that a few times i'll get random pitch bends in a patch that i have to "unbend back to 0 value" in a sequence (using Sonar 5.2). also, i have noticed a couple stuck notes, whereas before i never had notes go astray. havent noticed anything else has changed.

i find myself wondering just how close 1.1 is to being released. certainly by now they have found the main problem plaguing so many of the TI owners. i myself got a later model polar, and im wondering if it was all the early released models that are having issues? the way i see it, based on the reports here, the problem could be hardware or software. my logic for this in case you are wondering is that having a hardware issue (power supply, solder joint, batch of mobos) would explain why some people are having issues but others arent, whereas in theory at least all or most of us are running the same software on the same chips, and yet some are having stuck/hanging notes and thats not a hardware thing, so....
im curious to see if this is an age thing: if older ones are the ones that are having issues, could it be because this synth has power running through it 100% of the time, vs. a synth with an off switch.
yes, im speculating wildly.

and how lucky is it that all the magazines that got one for review never saw these issues--- certainly they would have mentioned it in the review, right?
