I haven't made the jump to X1.  Basic editing in 8.53 was frustrating enough with clips always moving when I double-clicked on them.  When I saw that CW laid an egg with X1, I decided to hang tight for the time being.

I am curious to hear the new compressors in X1 stack up, but the rest of it sounds like an exercise in frustration.  Here's hoping for a radically improved X2!

I don't think I ever said thanks for the template. I'm still using it as the basis of my main template, so thanks for that.

As for X1 it does seem a bit like marmite, some love it, some hate it. I wouldn't believe all the bluster, some of us find it an improvement. Trying it for yourself is the only way you'll find out though.

Thanks for all you do for the daw community! I use your templates everyday!


I've found X1C to be great to work with - I like it much better than 8.53. I wouldn't listen to the laying an egg crowd. How you tried the demo?















 

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for the off-topic intrusion on my old thread.  I currently have a piece entered in the Garritan Composer's Competition.  The first phase of the competition is purely a FaceBook popularity competition.  The top 10 vote getters then get reviewed by a panel of judges at Make Music (Finale) for their musical content.  

If you got any mileage out of the old mixing template I would certainly appreciate your vote on FaceBook.  You can vote one time/day through this Thursday.  

Thanks for your vote and here's a direct link: https://apps.facebook.com...ntry/visions-of-paris/

Unfortunately the template has not been updated.  I'm stuck on Sonar 8.53 and I also do a fair amount of work using Reaper these days.  X2's reverbs and compressors are better that what was included in Sonar, so it shouldn't be too terribly difficult to get equivalent or even better sounds using X2.  I wonder if some of the crazy routings import correctly into X2. 
 
I just don't care for the X interface and a new set of bugs to go with it.  I'd be very content if they just fixed the issues in 8.53, but I guess no one will ever make everyone happy.
 
Glad that you got some use out of it.
 
Jonas

THANKS JONAS

how to use the pink noise?

I remember the day you introduced that Mixing Template to the Sonar Group back in 2006.   I was happy because I didn't have to create my own anymore for a while, and yours was way better than mine.
 
I still have that project file saved in an old Sonar Extras folder on an external Hard Drive.
