Hello,
 
I am seriously considering purchasing Sonar X3.
I currently have Windows 7 64 bit machine.
Is there any benefit to getting Windows 8 when using X3?
Do touch screens work just as well with Windows 7.

SONAR does not work with touch on Win 7 must be at least Win 8.

Did Cakewalk totally disable multi-touch on Sonar X3 when using Windows 7?
Are there some gestures that will not function in Windows 7 when Sonar X3 is being used?
 
I strongly prefer to stay with my current OS Windows 7 and thus I am trying to understand  the issues that will hinder me form fully using X3 on a touch screen.
 
Windows 7 multi-touch

My understanding is that Windows 7 supports touch but not to the extent as Windows 8. X3 should work well on Windows 7 but should not be multi touch.  Windows 8 and X3 are multi touch enabled.
