@Jan - Rmix is gone but if you own X2 then you still can install it from there.

I figured as much--and I do have it from X2.  I'm just surprised how quickly it happened.

Because it's a Roland product ?
 
I'm sure that after his heavy meal the other day, Bapu's confident answer means that he is right, but the info for X3 Pro on Sweetwater site says it's included.

Mebee I'm confusing V-Vocal with R-Mix?

It's not mentioned anywhere on CW specs, but I would have thought that CW supplied the info to the vendors, so all I know for sure is that one of them is wrong. HTH.

Well, I'll be installing in about two hours but since I'll be installing with X2a intact I'm not sure I'll actually know the answer, so I'm leaving it up to you to suss it out.

Well, out of the blue I have had a windfall (that truly brought a tear to my eye) that allowed me to become an early adopter of X3. It is downloading now. Looks to be 5 hours away though....
 
I am about to start a solo project (not the Straumpu & The CHC project just getting underway) that I will use X3 for.

I knew you'd cave....

OK now it says 45 mins...the Bakers are teasing me!

So far I'm on the fence.
 
I really don't "need" any more plugins, and most of the ones I might buy nowadays would fit a fairly specialized need anyway. AFAIK, nothing I have currently is VST3, so I can't take advantage of any of the supposed "benefits" of VST3.
 
So I'm mostly sort of looking for the under the hood stuff at this point. Some of the other stuff might be nice, but I'm not sure how compelling it is so far.
 
Of course a part of me wants it just because it's there, but for $150 I think I can wait a bit and see how things shake out with the people who are neither fanbois or haters.
 
It is good to hear that spacey appears to having better luck with it so far though (knock on wood).

ditto that....not at the $150 price point..I'll wait for the bugs to be exterminated and a sale around the holidays...

Yeah, I saw that.  It's what made me curious about RMIX.  I'd forgotten about V-Vocal, but I guess Melodyne really does the same thing, so that's understandable.  Now I'm curious if one of those modules does the RMIX function.  I didn't see any names that look like it.  

From what I understand the X2 versions will still function in X3...just so you know..

Ok peeps, Stand Back! It's installing...

I must admit this is the first X-one I'm tempted to buy.

I'm tempted too, this does look like the DAW X1 intended to be but has taken three major revisions to get to.
 
I guess it was far to ambitious a move to try to get to this stage in one go but you could see where the X series was trying to get to in that much of the functionality was hinted at in partially functioning 'stubs', such as Take Lanes in X2 which were obviously were headed in the direction of the comping approach that's been standard in other products for a good while now, but the implementation in X2 was only partial and that is being polite.
 
Some are upset about X2 not recieving maintenance updates but in reality each release is really a maintenance update and the price was always an issue in that you couldn't fund the amount of development required in the timescale given the previous policy of 'cheap' so it's actually re-assuring the prices have increased slightly and the upgrade options have been simplified.
 
It does look like that X3 has brought Sonar back into step if not in advance of developments made to other current products which is quite impressive given how much of a set-back the X series represented when X1 made such a stir for all the wrong reasons at its launch.
 
One of the other big issues that Sonar defectors are still citing is quality of fit and finish which when compared with products as bullet-proof as Studio One and Reason in terms of stability and issue resolution it will remain to be seen over the next few months how 'buggy' this version is and how many long-standing issues still exist.
 
It would be nice to think there's a new Sonar I can 'come home' to, and this is looking more like it even the inclusion of 3rd party stuff that some are complaining about I see as a good thing because at least some recognizable products are being included such as Melodyne and Addictive drums over the cheesy 'Cakewalk' compromises that V-Vocal and Session Drummer that have been offered in the past.
 
At first glance though I'm giving it the thumbs up!

I have a choice of English( US ), French ( Standard ), German, Japanese, Spanish...
 
I want English ( UK )...I mean colour isn't color is it?
 
Decisions decisions...

Welcome to Melodyne, why, thank you!

Launch the application,hold on while I strap myself in...

Now VST scan is scanning my becan ( and black puddings ).

Scanning is transparent, PC is responsive to other things.
