    I'm still on the fence about buying it, I would also like to know what you are considering pretty cool.  I'm teetering alot, it probably wont take much to knock me off the fence one side or the other...

    Go for it -- I did :)   And I'm glad.  I can actually USE X1 now (3 days in a row without any major issues or unexpected crashes).   So "Expanded" seems to do something other than add features ;)

    Another user is reporting smoother operation as well.   But the features do seem worth it.  FX Chain 2.0 is quite useful and well done.   The Saturator is very nice.  The other additions are all good imho.

    Since it's apparent this is a new direction for CW (ie, doing add-ons along with - if not instead of - big updates), you don't want to miss the bus ;)

    Cool stuff: 1) Navagation within ProChannel...it's cool to be able to collapse modules, hide modules and scroll. 2) Being able to control FX chains from a single interface is very cool. Until you play with this it's hard to grasp how much it streamlines the workflow. 3) I'm dig'n the Saturator too. In addition, I picked up the Zeta+ 2...man, what a cool softsynth...really like it. I haven't even looked at the new Browser functionality yet.

    RAWK!!!
