@backwoods: 'Tried again; neither of those worked for me.  The plug worked fine for a while, then after moving the frame around for a few minutes, I couldn't get the grab spots again.  I did come to realize from someone else's comments that I had to make sure I was using a stereo track, which I didn't realize I wasn't before.

It could be useful, if only the frame manipulation were consistent and there were a way to return controls to default.  Maybe it's my system; I'll try the notebook later today

R-Mix seems to work fine for me although I only used it to see what it was all about. 

Thank you for sharing your real world example. I was trying to understand what it could be used for and this seems like a good example of one.
Thanks

I played with it and it seemed to work as advertized. I also thought it was very useful for removing unwanted audio. It seemed simple to operate too.

R-Mix seems ok to me, but the results and flexibility are nothing compared to using RX2. I open clips in the full editor from my tools menu and Sonar handles the copy back-and-forth. SUPER easy, powerful, and flexible.

For anyone wondering if RX2 is worth the money I would say it depends on your annual budget for gear. I work on a lot of live recordings and it has definitely been worth every penny for me.

OK, I got a chance to use R-Mix on my notebook a little while ago and...  I had no trouble whatsoever.  It did pretty much what it was supposed to do, so the issue seems to have to do with my desktop configuration, possibly an issue with my video card, I suppose.  A shame, because I like the potential of the plugin.

@tunekicker: RX2 impressed me from the first time I saw it, but as I make no money from music, the cost was prohibitive.  Also, I was fairly sure that that program might have been a bit beyond my capacity to grasp thoroughly.

I thought now that Roland has R-Mix out, maybe iZotope would release a competing version of RX2 at around the same or lesser price point, but then I figured R-Mix might be licensed technology from iZotope anyway, so most likely not.

BTW, there's also Sony Creative's SpectraLayers Pro that looks interesting, too.

SpectraLayers Pro does indeed look interesting. If they got the processing side of things right (how it sounds) this will be stiff competition for RX with the ability to separate into multiple layers. RX doesn't really have that concept.

That said, RX is very flexible and powerful, although it can take a while to really master it.

Peace,

I tried it out in one song that i needed to clean up the end of a stereo wave file. I used it in place of the Waves X Noise. It worked good and and i used the R-mix with envelope/automation so it only effected the very end of the song.
