I know this was meant to be snarky but the bulk of the broken things I've found don't really get in my way. The three things that do are, in order of nuisance...
The random selection bug.
Audiosnap being quirky as all heck.
The general wackiness of the graphics in regards to things disappearing, appearing highlighted when they're not, flashing, waves sometimes becoming invisible when moving clips, etc...
These have been well documented on the forum so I'm sure they've got a pile of reports on them already so I haven't bothered. I was just assuming that a patch would be coming and those things might get better. They got slightly better after installed the A patch and are somewhat intermittent so it seems to me it's just the core stability of the program. Not really anything specific that can be done.
Cakewalk is likely to get a phone call at some point because I want to wipe my system and start from scratch following their directions. Unfortunately I am probably going to be freaking moving yet again (ugh) so I'm holding of until I'm in my new place. There might be a patch by then anyway... I hope. Otherwise Reaper is getting installed and I'll probably do all my editing there. Mixing seems to be okay in X2a so far but I haven't really done anything in depth since I patched.
