So far, no crashes since X1b

Yeah - since donwloading the X1b update, I have been working for a few hours on a project with no crashes at all. Not too shabby ! But I imagine there are those that will warn me - the calm before the storm - or have others found improvement. 
 
While I am on here, is there a way to set up the Control Bar so that input monitoring is by default not on during palyback unless I chose it? I found that even when click it off, and then go to somewhere else in the project to play back, it pops back on again - I am sure I am missing some simple factor.
 
Thanks !

I'm almost scared to say it,but, me too. I also used V-Vocal for a while today, and nothing bad happened. But, I'm not a power user,I'm a singer and the main use of X1 so far for me has been adding vocals to tracks that are sent to me, although I have done tracks recording too.

I'm liking it so far (I'm X1b). I don't know if it helped that I bought a brand new computer just to run X1 on...oh and I bought Scott Garrigus' book for a great price from Cakewalk, I got it via Fed Ex 3 days later...so hopefully that will help me get deeper into things, along with everybody here on the Forum.

I'm not sure if this is what you are after but there is a setting to disable input monitoring during playback in Edit-Preferences-Playback and recording.

Thanks for the write backs - its good to know that others are doing better with it and the help with input monitoring....... please check out my songs at Soundclick if you can. Done with good ole Sonar 7
