DI Acoustic sounding better with X1b / Pro Channel

Although I know it's not the prefered method, but for getting a quick background track down; I have noticed that even my going DI -interface-X1, the acoustic guitar with the pre-set on Pro Channel sounds much nicer than previous versions of Sonar. Just thought I would throw that out there and see if anyone else has found this to be the case.

    It's a nice tool and easy to dial in a good sound. Better than previous versions of Sonar? Maybe, but probably only in the ease of use and the quality of the embedded emulation... but maybe that's just the pretty pictures and cool buttons.

    If it works, it works. Go with it and lay as many quick background tracks as you can and may your musical life be filled with creativity and joy.

    Since I bought the V-studio I think my acoustic has never sounded nicer.  Don't know if it is the pre's or what But I LOVE my acoustic recording on the V-studio.  It has a great fresh open sound to it.

    The other day I asked the forum if there is a way to change the font size (to go bigger) in the Project Info page? I don't think anyone had an answer yet - maybe you know or someone who looks in on this response.
     
    Thanks

    Wow - thanks ! and those were done with Sonar 7 - since then I am doing more and a re-do of one of those with X1b Producer.
     
    I have been pleased at how high up the rankings some of those songs have made it,,in the acoustic category....
