I FREAKING LOVE X1
ok, so... many years back, Cakewalk, was my first entry into the DAW universe..... many more years later, after laboring thru past Sonar versions, Cubase versions and more recently Ableton Live 8, I have finally come back home, and jumped into X1. Sure, there are a a few things I dont like.. 1. lack of an adjustable snap-to grid in the timeline 2. Not in love with the loading of VST instruments. BUT.... as an interface designer myself, and an avid singer, musician, producer, I have to say.. i FREAKING love X1 so far. what we need... 1. SKINS, 2. More in depth Tutorials. 3. Better forum emotes  Otherwise... I'm Hooked. Thanks Cakewalk! Thanks Seth! Thanks Eli ! ROCK ON !!!!  My Site > Maxstyles.com

Don't thank me, I'm just a sales guy. Thank the development team and product management team for what you see in X1.  Addressing your peeves ... There is adjustable Snap. The settings are right there in the COntrol Bar's Snap module. What functionality are you missing? Why do you not like inserting synths in X1? It's literally a simple drag and drop from the Browser to the Track View. SP

@ Seth - what I am missing is being able to adjust the resolution of the grid, I know its been addressed (complained about) before, and I know about Aim assist, but honestly when dragging and dropping, copy\pasting clips, there should be no reason there isnt an adjustable, snap-able grid. @Chucke - I have recently checked out that site, and as much as I am into customizing, and design (it's my career, check my site) I'm just not 'turned on' by anything I saw there....No offense at all to the Modders there. If I stick with X1, I may bust into a .dll or two and make a few mods myself. Conversely, Cakewalk would be wise to invest in a few extra designs themselves, I know for a fact that most folks are persuaded to stay with an app longer when it has several alternative personalities. Being skinnable, at least to me, is almost a necessity... but of course... its a damn fine app... otherwise.

Sure, the Track View Grid should be fully adjustable (including swing values, IMHO). I've lobbied for it in the past and will continue to do so in the future. We'll see what happens.

Since customizing is your specialty, why not make some mods/skins for the X1 users here? 1) It would be greatly appreciated and certainly welcomed by ALL (just see the response Panup has received for his mods) 2) It would promote your talents/services here and possibly the Bakers could use you as well. Even if you don't stick with X1, this is a win-win situation for everyone. You'd be the toast of the party!!! lol I love the customiziation done by Panup (he's the only one who offered his personal time & effort to do this) and it has definitely enhanced my X1 experience.......so more "skinners" the merrier!!!
