Yup   It's a good one.   And from my personal experience with X3, it was all completely accurate!
 
Except they forgot about Lounge Lizard and bi-filter - two of my favorite new X3 plugins.   

Good, positive article ... of course, I always prefer reviews and analyses like this that I agree with completely! :)

+1
 
I like 3/10 a lot "OK, we'll admit that this one is bit subjective, but we aren't the only ones who've noticed it. Users on forums across the net have been reporting the same thing: Sonar X3 is smooth."
 
They actually read the forums!! :)

sweet! 

Read the article; not overly impressed except for color customization. Melodyne schmelodyne. However, I am befuddled why they didn't mention the improved EQ with spectrum overlay. That, to me, is the best feature for my needs. Right now, I'm hoping for a Christmas-season upgrade sale.
