Has someone tried the new X3 with VS 700 ? Is everything reacting well (at least like in X2)? If it's not the case, I don't see the interest to get X3 !

Ryan Munnis [Cakewalk]
We didn't drop support for the VS-700. The SONAR X3 installer still installs the components and we did not remove any functionality. I do know this is not an area we focused on with this release however, so I would expect the same functionality as SONAR X2a.

Does this help? http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/2896514

well, this is a disappointment ...
 
So they've done nothing and hoping all still works??? Yeah, right ... I don't think software development works like that
 
Although some of the new X3 features seem nice, I won't be the first to purchase and test X3 with the VS-700. Will continue to work with X2a and make my mind up later.
 
Does anybody know what is included in the 100+ tweaks? I can't find a list anywhere ...
 

Fixes and Enhancements

Pure refinement.

SONAR X3 includes over a hundred finely tuned tweaks, little enhancements and general improvements throughout, inspired by customer feedback, making it the most refined and solid version of SONAR yet.

Hmmm....finally an outcome of sorts.

Finally a verdict on 'tight integration'....
 
Not sure on buying the upgrade this time around...need to consider long term options which may include waiting to see what/if the new version of Cake decide to release for hardware options. Maybe Fender will buy them out next...

X3 does have some nice touches it seems. Shame they've dropped 700C development..and not bothered to actually tell us.
 
Cheers...?

yeah the "not bothered to tell us" part is why I'm frustrated to write here the since X1.  Maybe they're pushed on all side themselves since x1?
 
An open editor ala Nucleus could be all we need from the beginning anyway...
 
I cross my fingers.... LOL

Didn't Zo babble about trying to get the code and have it maintained as open source ???
 
Zo, where are you??? This is your chance to step in and save us all

You guys may have missed this post, it is in a very low activity forum http://forum.cakewalk.com/FindPost/2885623

Its good to see a couple of guys trying to work Things out.
Thanks for posting the link.

Yeah, it looks like the best hope. I see it has spawned a new thread here, probably a good idea.
