I see rumblings of the bugs that remain in X2 and it was mentioned that Cake had let the X3 bomb drop in some promo or video or something.
 
Can someone provide a link to said comment?
 
Thanks
 
PS I should note that for me anyway x2 is stable as long as I remember to avoid the take lane mute bug.
 
When I first start recording takes I have the mute the clip in the first lane instead of the lane. Otherwise if I record another take and don't like it when I use the undo recording it also unmutes the first take lane. it only does this when recording the 2nd take lane. After there is 2 or more lanes the problem disappears.
 
Its easy enough to avoid but still annoying when I forget.

Cakewalk said nothing, the video promoting MC6 Touch contains an image of a directory listing containing an entry named X3. Everything else is pure speculation. Read into it what you wish. I am not sure this was the first post about it but here is an example http://forum.cakewalk.com/fb.ashx?m=2821733 ...enjoy

If X3 was not in development at this stage, indeed if they did not start its development right after the release of X2 then I would be worried, it would probably mean Cakewalk was preparing to leave the market.

As long as some sustaining resources are dedicated to X2 this is normal good business practice essential to survival of the company. You can bet Windows 9 development is well under way.

It's unlikely X3 will be a major change like X1 was. This means that it could be possible to release some code from X3 development as a X2 patch.

I wonder why they had to add the X3 folder at this stage. They were very careless...

At least they had the forethought to remove the "Who Shot JFK" folder.

The rumour started when someone from the Illuminati tripped over the curb...and yelled out something like " oh....X3!!!"

it's not the Illuminati. I'm in the iluminati and I didn't know. Oops, I shouldn't have said that. Lol

I'm beta testing X7, but I can't give you any info.
NDA says I can't.
Sorry.

Oh, and scook, the "Who Shot JFK" folder was reintroduced in X5, but was resolved in X6, so it remains removed.
