Hi Fred-

I don't think anybody here meant to dupe you. Sorry if you
feel that way. ACID DJ was named as such because of the
loops which are available--not because it was strictly for
DJ's. In fact, the lighter versions are for people who
want to be able to do DJ-type stuff without having to worry
about figuring out connecting turntables, mixers, outboard
effects processors, etc. together. All at a very
reasonable cost. ACID Pro is designed more with production
professionals in mind. The ability to use envelopes, FX
sends, Sync, support for 24-bit files, and the like, are
the benefits of using ACID Pro.

If you do currently have ACID DJ, then you at least have
the loops which came with it, which aren't available on any
other CD. Also, the upgrade path price to ACID Pro is no
more expensive than buying Pro outright. Just make sure
you're registered, and our sales department can help you
out if you want. In defense of the price of ACID Pro--it's
new technology that can't currently be found elsewhere and
did take a bit of R&D to create.

I hope this helps.
