  Hi Miguelito, Yes, I'm willing to change DAWs because Sonar isn't just showing me their carelessness with their DAW but also their forum. Both are busted-up right now. Can I changed DAWs? Yes. Does it cost me money? Yes. The problem is, even if I were to use a different browser as a workaround for this broken forum, Sonar 2 would still be a hot mess. So, I have little choice. I either switch to a working DAW or I wait for Cakewalk to fix X2 AND their forum. Switching DAWs gets me a new DAW AND a working forum where my words are mushed together in a r-e-t-a-r-d-e-d fashion. It's cute that Cakewalk ccensors the word r-e-t-a-r-d-e-d but doesn't fix their bloody lack of carriage returns in Firefox. LOL. I can't even organize my thoughts on this forum in a way that makes it easy for people to digest. This really does piss me off, and I blame this squarely on Cakewalk's carelessness and inattention to detail. Check out MOTU's forum, it's rock-solid (I'm already a member). I am a member of many forums and also run a forum. Again, it's not about the people, but the forum itself. I've been trying a lot of different DAW demos here and am quite impressed with the competition. I've basically ignored the competition all these years because I was formerly reasonably-happy with Cakewalk. But, this is the risk of treating customers like Beta-testers. If you peeve them off enough, they start looking elsewhere. This forum *is* objective proof that they don't care to make it work with a valid browser, FireFox. I use FireFox because it suppresses tool-tips in Facebook and browses as well as anything else out there. It's a feature thing, not because Chrome or IE are broken.

I only notice all the complaining coming out of your feeds. A car should have 4 wheels. My car has 5. One spare. As to your message ,You are the one using your computer. Maybe a wheel fell off when you took the last corner. It could be that your keyboard has changed in your computer. That happens to me also sometimes. Since you were on the internet before there was an internet you should know this. Lighten up and listen to some of your friends on the forum. Danny ' Normally there would be a carriage return here, but this forum sucks, so there isn't. My argument is not that a forum should make *everyone* happy. My argument is that a forum should have a minimum standard of functionality. Carriage-returns and quoting are minimum standard. A web-browser won't make everyone happy, but it should be able to browse the web as a minimum standard. Your car response is dishonest. My analogy refers to the basic functionality of a car requiring 4-wheels, unless it's a trike designed with 3. You can't go driving a Daihatsu Charade with 3-wheels and call it a complete car. Some cars don't have spares, either, and a car does not need a spare as 'minimum operating equipment'. Your defense of this forum is verging on dishonest. Seriously, don't defend garbage. It just makes you look bad, in-denial, dishonest, etc. I'm not saying YOU are dishonest, but your arguments aren't honest. Face it, this forum sucks (and I won't keep harping on about it), because I am really here because X2 is broken, and as a long-time customer I've been driven to look for competing DAWs. Right now, I'm trying Abelton Live, Studio One 2 and will be checking out DP8. X2 doesn't seem to play nicely with ASIO either, at least not for 96k recording (compared to other DAWs).

 Thanks Roby, but I've uninstalled X1 and X2. Not sure if I will be using Cakewalk products again. It's time for something new. Cakewalk can get in touch with me personally if they want to know more, otherwise I'll be sending my money to the competition.

So when you find out that competition's software also exhibits similar problems, who you going to blame then?

Best of luck with that.

Instead of argueing?...Lets get this fixed! I have been using Cakewalk in a professional invironment since 1998-99, Yes X-2 has serious problems. Im still working up the list and will post it soon. Some are which are buried in certain combinations of functions which make them hard to reproduce in every situation. Im running Windows 7 and the one fastest PC platforms that can currently be built ( i7 Extreme, 64 gig of ram, the new x79 chipset, SSD Op drive and two hard drives for sample data & projects.) This system out runs the software, A project loaded with a TON of VST's and Soft-Synths puts NO load what so ever on my system what so ever. In fact I have yet to get more than a flicker from the processor meter.  SO far my testing leads me to believe X5 or 6 will be awsome.....LOL
The past should tell us all that..we have to be patient.  Cakewalk will eventually get rid of the bugs.... 
My 2 cents
