Hi guyz ! Waiting for my pysical version of X3 to be delivered .....i was wondering several questions , so if you guyz have time ...;)
 
1) when you get X3 , until when can you  upgrade to Melodyne editor version (Cakewalk , is there a way to ask them to extend the offer since physical version aren't even in store now and all my student going for the EDU versions waiting for that )
 
2) The new Eq windows (extended windows that pop up ) : is it linked to the PC physcicaly or can we move it all around and floating it ?
 
3)Is there new metering plugins ? i saw on the X3 video on the FX layout "gognio"  ...if not it would be super urgent to propose a serious metering suite ala Studio one  at least !
 
4) editing with Melodyne : is it destrutiv or is it implemented like V vocla with a layer on  the clip ?
 
5) can we still have color for track and clip independant ?
 
Thks guyz , i will add questions as i come to my tired mind !l

1. Officially until the 16th. I'm sure you could mail them and explain, they've been really quick and helpful to me.
2. It's fixed but you can float the inspector with PC in it.
3. Haven't checked
4. It is comparable to V-Vocal but you don't get a muted layer underneath. You can always remove MD again though and it will restore your clip. You can also trim the clip with Melodyne on it, and copy it etc.
5. Yes

3. I havent seen any new Metering plugs but I use Ozone anyway...it would be a LOVELY feature to have really good Metering on the Master Bus in Pro Channel...The Quad Curve is a step in the right direction tho.

ok one more question , as you can see in this screen shot , the character of the letters in X2 sucks (for me) and i really prefer the X1 version ....(X1 is more readable than X2)
 
Is it like X1 or X2 in X 3  ?
 
If it's like X2 , is there an option to change it ? ( i searched quikly in the color coustimsiation but only color are availlable not character option : like B / I ect ...

No idea. Looks like it's just a bold version? I would think you can set this somewhere in some ini file, but that is something you could probably test with your current copy of X2?

You don't need to uninstall X2. Unless you need disk space. I don.t understand where the idea that it will be a mess comes from.

X3 will install its vst's into the same folders as X2, so you can still benefit from your old X2 vst's that have been removed for (i guess) administrative reasons. Unless you do a custom installation.

My advice would be to leave X2 in place until you're 100% sure you have no teething problems. This is what i have done, though i now use X3b all the time, its so stable.

Cheers et bon chance,
Jerry

Being a total chicken.. I don't remove stuff that is not broken.. x3 installed fine alongside x2 and x1 so unless you are the gambling type, I would certainly +1 the bold.
