Can anyone comment on X3's support for VST3?  Side chaining?  I have some Waves VST3 Plug-ins and would like to know how well X3 supports any of the Waves VST3 plugs.  I have been a strong proponent for VST3 support in the past...I knew it would only be a matter of time before the bakers would break down and support the API.  This is very kewl if they now have full support.
 
Thanks,

Can't speak to the Waves VST3 support but I have several VST3 plugins from Steinberg and they seem to be working fine (I just installed late last week and have only had about 8 hours to test).
 
I believe I have heard of some issues with the Waves stuff but that may have been in relation to a bundle that was offered about six months ago by Cakewalk/Waves.
 
Regards,

I'm in the same boat to be honest not impressed so far with the complete lack of integration with waves.....my investment in waves is much bigger than my investment in sonar so it got me thinking

Did you download X3b? I know there are some issues we are still looking to resolve and are working with Waves to do so. 

yes Im running X3b but the standard functionality available in all other DAWs for waves plugins such as side chain inputs just isnt there with sonar

All Waves plugs that support side chain inputs are working fine for me. Not sure what issues you're having, unless it's just that it works differently from other DAWs?

Please contact our tech support. We can help diagnosis this issue. You need to supply a little more info then just it doesn't work.

Side chaining with Waves VST3 plugins works perfectly in X3 and has been verified by Waves themselves. I'm not sure what metric you are basing that observation on. The only difference is that SONAR has always required you to patch sidechain inputs from the track and not from the plugin.

OK maybe I'm doing something worng but let me try and upload a screen shot

When I try and attach a file it won't look at my local drive
