Euphonix/Avid Artist Series and Sonar X1?

The VS-700c, and every V-Studio device for that matter, most certainly does fully support x64. :-) Where did you find out this mis-information?

Sorry, I don't really know the ins and outs of EuCon support as I've no hands on experience with those controllers.

Everything in the VS-700 works in x64. You can get the control surface separately and it has its own x64 driver, or you can buy the entire package and and it has its unified driver for the interface and console. Perhaps the people in the VS-700 forum were talking about the Fantom VS. While it does work in SONAR x64, it is not a native x64 plugin and runs via Bit-bridge, but it does work. The control surface also fully works with X1, including the ProChannel, etc. I'm not sure which version of SONAR ships in the VS-700 box, though. You would have to contact Roland for that, or check out www.rolandus.com. Hope that helps. :-)

I could have sworn I just saw an ad for it (V700) that named X1 Essentials as bundled...

I'll try to find it again...

Yes the 700C is the best control surface option IMO for Sonar and it certainly does run perfectly fine under 64bit. Could use some flexibility update however for X1 but nothing that's a show stopper.... yet.

Same  problems with not being able to keep buss selected on the touch screen of  Avid Artist control used with X1 as with X2. slow walk tech support has been aware of the issue for a long time now . Still no action with this driver. Cubase and protools do not have these issues It is my own fault for being stupid and shelling out more money for X2.   Cakewalk, you can pass the buck as much as you want but it is the last one of mine you will have to pass. You don't even list the known problems with this driver in your knowledge base.  I will  ask my sales rep at L& M  to bring  this on going issue to Roland's attention again. 

I used the Euphonics for X1 and now for X2. It works pretty swell for me. 
Did I just say "swell"

The Artist mix works but the the Artist MC Control is the problem child that does not keep touch screen busses selected. I did use the VS 700 system at one time ,however the limited IO and form fo true expansion given the bandwidth on the USB2 and the limited sample rate with the ADAT Optical outputs. I had  to have the USB inputs replaced on both  V studio 700c and V studio R   ,because they became loose and unreliable. finally they stopped working all together  and I switched to RME UFX and the Artist controls. I also own Cubase 6.5 and Protools ten and no issues with the Avid artist series controller on those  plat forms or in fact no issues with UAD quad card. The only reason I  bought X2 is that  I  have used it as my main DAW since version 7. The issues of bad coding seem to multiply with every new issue. i really thing it is time certain people choose another career path before the brand reputation goes too far south to save. Look at Avid ,****ty service, still 32 bit,0 customer service without paying extra money , but usually stable and it still remains arguably the most used  DAW. Functionality, stability and honesty are  needed commodities, not new bells and whistles . I don't understand why this concept is so difficult for cakewalk to grasp. This Daw Should not be treated as a toy any more but a professional audio recording and production tool. When this tool fails users loose money and client respect. Get with it Cakewalk!
 

The issues have been reported to them by phone, by Email, by the tech support route numerous times. By me, By my    L& M rep, to  the Roland Canada VP.
