You heard it here first in post #4 mark Bapu's words.... 

Fixed.


Post #4 is too vague.  I've dished the REAL dope.  Including dates and content.

I'm all about being vague. That way I can move my intent to suit my needs.

That's a powerful lesson.

Best regards.

I would buy it if:

You don't have many plug-ins
You don't have any soft-synths
You don't care that ProChannel sucks unless you spend more on Sonar Expanded
You fell that PC plugs are better than anything else you could buy

These are important issues. In particular the fact that Pro Channel only gains it's full potential if you buy the expanded update.

Here we go again, should I pull the trigger? I'm running X1d Studio, so is the $99 really worth it?

Link please!

Ampfixer and Jonbouy - thanks for the your input. I do own a ton of plugins and soft synths and I really don't want to be tempted to buy more Sonar expansion stuff. Maybe I'll hold off for now and wait for the next upgrade

In my opinion (not that it's worth much - LOL), this is a smart decision! I own Producer/Expanded, but I rarely (if ever) use any of the "Producer only" add-ins. What I do miss in X1 Producer is the Sonitus EQ integration - if you use that (and like it) you will not like the Producer upgrade way of handling it, as new projects will be forced to use Pro Channel. (Pro Channel is fine for many, I'm just stating that you won't have the Sonitus EQ integration on new projects)

codamedia - thanks for the info regarding Sonitus EQ integration. I use that on everything. I think I'm still going to take back my outboard 2ch compressor and get a new assembly for my snare drum. - side note - I picked up a studio shaker and tambourine yesterday and added it to a track I'm working on. Shaker on the verse, tambourine on the chorus. Brought the track to life and made it AMAZINGLY real with the EZ Drummer kit. I'm thinking of recording live high hat parts to replace the EZ Drummer high hat. Someone told me that Peter Gabriel used Stewart Copeland from the Police to play all his high hat parts on one of his album that had programed drums.
