I'm really very happy.
 
After years and years of complaining about the interface and the way Cakewalk handeled with the X-series - resulting for me to leave Cakewalk and to use other DAW's in stead of - there is now finally an X3 version which in turn makes it fun to work with!
The customizable colours are finally back and there is a wonderful way to make in an easy and fast way your own choices with multiple takes. Maybe not original (Studio One did it some years ago already), but who matters? It is wonderful and it works great. 
 
Bravo Cakewalk, here is a loyal fan who - after all these years - is back in the house! A fan from the beginning, and again admiring Cakewalk now. You did it! Thanks for listening.
 

i second that ..even if i had nothing but headache since the install (concerning specific use i do ) , i keep thinking that this is one of the most Mature (features wise) version since a while !!!
 
I usually never upgrde soon after relase and never in the middle of a pro project , but those features are so workflow oriented that i said to myself : ok 2 or 3 dayz of headache and then hours and hours of time gained !!!
 
 
 

I'm loving X3 also!

Not sure why buy X3 really does feel like a different animal... LOVE it!
 

Have enjoyed my time thus far!

This kind of feedback means so much to us. Thank you. 
 
More good stuff to come soon! 

Are you guys adding some new features to X3?

I Love the new color feature. It is one of my favorite things about this new release

I'm using Cakewalk softwares for many years now, and I wonder why the X3 came out only 1 year after the release of X2 and why they didn't put a little more in X2 and improve it's stability...

I'm a long time happy user as well:
* X3 is very stable - so far only a couple of very minor random things. Probably the best new version release ever for me.
* It absolutely hit a home run with me on features, very close match on my wants and needs, including some I didn't know I had.
* Dan Gonzalez managed to get me back on the Cakewalk mailing list after many years!
