no vst may be an issue for some, myself included... but seriously expecting melodyne to be integrated?.. pffft.

R-Mix was to be expected though since it's a Roland product. But no VST3 is a bit of a letdown.

Yes, I agree.  Not another year before it comes surely?

Hi folks, 
            What is VST3?

not expecting my friend.....hoping.  I use studio as well as sonae...and melodyne is flawless in there.  Too much to hope that Cake would jump in here? Melodyne opened the api to all...

If you didn't have a chance to catch the webinar, there is so much more to X2 than R-Mix.  In fact, I'd say R-Mix sits way lower on the list compared to what Brandon and Seth were showing - Take Lanes, Automation Lanes, Auto-Snap, Snap Overrides (really like that one), zooming from the Timeline, new selection modes, etc, etc.    
 
For those that have VST3 plugs and can't access specific features without VST3 support, I certainly get it.  But for those like myself that do not, there's little to nothing I saw today that I would exchange for VST3.  Subject to change at any time.
 
As far as ARA goes... meh.    I already have that.

Yes please, can anybody tell me/us off what benifit having vst 3 support will be in x2 as suppose to vst2 plugins in x2,
Is vst 3  anything to do with Cubase note expression etc, Or is their any other purpose apart from maybe hoping you have future proofed, Is their any major benifit if so can you please explain why the rush, apart from maybe the odd extra midi parameter, i have vst 3 stuff in Studio one and i have not noticed anything outstanding i would other wise be missing at this time,

There are many benefits to VST3 support, especially for MANY plug-ins...i.e. Waves Vocal Rider....

I think it's kind of Cakes "Snub" to Steinberg.....a way of saying....we think what we have it is good enough...without
support for your new standard.

The problem with that is....it's going to make a lot of people VERY unhappy that they can't access the FULL functionality of plug-ins that they've hocked their childrens futures to buy...

MAYBE, if we're lucky, when the Windows 8 Patch comes along....they'll sneek in support for VST 3...
 
Who knows???  Stranger Things Have Happened!
