hi everyone, I just discovered something I want to pass on. I've been having problems with a delay that would appear. I thought it was the interface (M-Audio mobile pre), I thought it was the computer, i7 core, plenty of power, it was making me nuts, I took one more look before I reloaded the O/S. I removed the FX chains I was using on drums, vox. that did the trick, it seems for some reason X-2 does not work and play well when running them in real time. so for what it's worth there you are.
