Try Firefox V5 or earlier or latest version with IE tab, that's as functional as Chrome at least.

Pretty cool stuff, although I might not bite until X3...I seem to have this pattern:

Sonar 3 --> Sonar 5 --> Sonar 7 --> Sonar X1 -->  ??

iPhone 3 --> iPhone 5 (when it's released!)

Windows 98 --> Windows XP --> Windows 7  (skipped 2000 and Vista)

Besides, I only upgraded to X1 6 months ago (Expanded only last month), so it's still pretty new to me!

Sorry, but this board is unusable for a Firefox user...

Perhaps it is Firefox that has become unusable. Use Chrome. 

@Ionian... It's very much like playing and listening to a new CD for the first time - not what you expected or anticipated and makes it easier for you to criticize the album. If you listen to it a few more times, it may start to sink in and it may become a favorite album of yours. During the period that you fire up X1... Don't use any other DAW and don't have any other DAWs workflow or screen layouts in mind. What you want to achieve is to establish a working connection with X1. Try to compose, record, mix and master with it. Do this several times and then compare how long it took you to complete a song with X1 to another DAWs. And at that time you can reflect and ask yourself if you enjoyed using X1 for your musical work.

Here there is not a very good moment.
Actually it's really difficult to produce because of the economical conditions.
I recently purchase a Jupiter 80 and it is a very good keyb with great features and sound possibilities.
you can imagine that there is no money left for anything.
But this X2 brings very interesting features and it would be nice to upgrade.
I think that it would be a good thing to help the old cakewalk users to upgrade conveniently keeping the upgrade price especially low for them. I'm purchasing CW products begining from cakewalk 6. 
What do you think about?

Seriously?  Some of you guys kill me.
 
I go on several different forums and this is the ONLY forum I have trouble w/ in Firefox.   

yeah this forum is a pita. i cant even post up help sometimes because the formatting goes to ****.

FF works fine if you know html/BB codes which are easy to learn/add to comments. It's a mild annoyance but it works and I think the forum is worth the effort. And I don't know how someone could completely trash a program after only using it very briefly over something so very minor. There are tons of things I used to do in Nuendo that are different in X1. It's all there though, so I adjust. It's worth it. Everything changes. Everything.

And Chrome/IE do work but I refuse to use either. If you need breaks in your post use the "Open Full Version" button above the reply box, punch in a bunch of "paragraph" or "break" tags, go to town. If you want to post an image then you need to use BB code. Both HTML and BB codes are easily searchable via google. The easy code buttons and smileys don't work but graphic smileys are silly anyway... no offense to the smiley weirdos... but you're weird. ;-p
