I upgraded to Platinum.  I got the sale email from Cakewalk this morning and went to Audio Deluxe to save an extra $20.  $99.99 is a little more palatable considering how great X3 has been to me.  And I mean stellar.  However, with the coming of Windows 10 (already here) I didn't think it was wise to put all my trust into a DAW that is no longer being updated.
 
Thoughts?

If your experience with Platinum is anything like mine, you're gonna' be thrilled!
 
Great price BTW!

WELCOME! I think you made a wonderful choice. I loved X3 and moved cautiously to Platinum. I have never been happier. I made the jump last week to windows 10 and so far have never been happier. You might want to check out the Cakewalk Summer Sale going on right now to pick up some nice bargains for ProChannel accessories or upgrades for instruments.

If you don't have the Concrete Limiter, I think that's on sale too...it's one of my most-used plug-ins.

There's still a bug with it which has been fixed internally, but this still has not been released yet (installer needs updating). Any news?


I like concrete limiter, I do not like the bug.
 
Thanks..

I haven't experienced the bug to which I think you're referring in several months. Wasn't it some interaction-with-host issue?

I too use Concrete Limiter quite a bit.  I haven't run into any issues with it, either in Win 7 or 8.1.  I've upgraded to Win 10, but haven't tried it there yet but I don't expect to have any problems.  I've been tracking bass in Win 10 (several songs) and haven't had any problems (after Roland finally upgraded their drivers).

Still going on.
I can't find the thread where Cakewalk quotes the bug has been fixed internally but needs a new installer (about 4 months ago?). But I definitely remember it. It's an ancient bug.

We've also been waiting on Z3TA+2 fixes for some time, I will sidestep Rapture Pro for the moment as at least most issues got fixed (assuming another update is coming soon?).
 
Thanks.

Hmmm. Concrete Limiter discounted! Tempting. Those of you who use it, what are its attributes and why would you reach for it ahead of other limiter plugs?

Audio Deluxe to save an extra $20?
What is Audio Deluxe?
I am on the verge of caving, too.
