Not that I saw. I'll give it a try and see how it handles once they release the X2 demo. If it's not a massive leap I might be in with a chance like with X1.

Looks really interesting, but I'm actually already running X1 on a machine with specs below the minimum (without performance issues) so I'm not sure my aging DAW is going to handle it. 


Did the video mention any minimum specs for x2?

None mentioned.


I'll expect that if your current system handles X1D expanded then it should be good to go ....

Well, the new audio engine is 64 bit 
384 Khz...but it still doesn't seem to be gapless..

It says...addresses gapping in common operations..



Anyone have a 384 capable interface?

I wish, Here is the one someone can get me  http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Trinity?utm_source=none&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign=none&gclid=CNGPv7H4x7ECFWVvTAod7kYAWg

I WANT ONE TOO, PLEASE!!!

Okay so it seems quite a few people here believe there will be some kind of ultra cheap deal upon first release with some even stating it might be $50 for Expanded users (which I am). If that is the case what I'd like to do is (if I can scrounge the dough up) purchase the upgrade but not install it right away. That way I'm not interrupting my current work/learning curve and I don't get hit with any potential bugs/problems. I'd then keep an eye on the forum to see how every one is making out and let the knowledge base for X2 build up to a point where if I encounter problems it is more likely it has already been figured out by other users. I might even wait until the first patch to install it. Would that work? Does Cakewalk allow you to do things like this? And please guys, don't jump all over me again... I'm just trying to figure out my best options here. I am a completely new Cakewalk user so this is the first time I've ever dealt with their upgrade procedures. Peace.

Yes you can do that.  I't probably a good idea.

Just fix the snap in score view and provide users the the option of using traditional music notation icons and I might be happier with X2 than my unused X1.

P.s. a lot of programming talent are now available since the Sibelius uk office closed...

Cool. Thanks, vintagevibe. I'll let my toonie/loonie jar build up for the next couple months. :-)

@elffin... I'm a little surprised they didn't attempt to do something for the Staff View folks. Seems like people have been requesting this for a loooong time. I haven't fiddled with it too much yet but I'd like to. I haven't really run into TOO many issues but one thing that was glaringly messed up was the guitar chord diagram thingy. What is up with that? It's like it's on bath salts or something. SV is not exactly my preferred method of writing but I would like to use it when teaching.

Sadly Cakewalk doesn't care about the Staff View.  I've been wanting improvements for years and they just ignore it.
