Re: R-Mix

I bought the free-standing program (pre-ordered, even) for $199 when it first came out.

Underwhelming.  Played with it for an hour a month ago, and haven't looked at it since.

I think it was COMPUTER MUSIC that gave it a 6/10.

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..

The new snapping feature looks really nice. It was about time they addressed that feature!

What I find truly interesting is that they seem to have killed off Expanded. It looks like one Pro Channel for everyone, and back to 3 versions in the good, better, best format. Thank goodness that nonsense may be coming to an end. And good on them for putting some work into the existing 64 bit plugs.

I'm with you on these thoughts as well...

I just saw the video, and I'm excited.  They added most of the feature requests that I asked for, so I'm looking forward to this version.  Imagine, take and automation lanes!  The list of new things will keep me busy for a while.  I guess I can wait 3 more weeks.

What's the difference b/w a take lane and a layer? Anyone know?

I think they are one and the same and the poster simply used jargon from another product.

Some good worthwhile improvements on the way.

Please, please, please none of the quality issues we saw at X1's release and please can we have as many persisting long standing issues as possible squashed for good?

If it's in there lets have it working and not just working but working well.

Thank you.

Any signs of an ACT update?

Wow, just wow! Let's hope the Upgrade cost is about the same or lower so we can all easily link up to their new Matrix system.

That console emulation looks like a load of fun. I am wondering what the new model is if I remember right the current ones are a neve and a ssl in producer right? what is this A model?     
I have Slate VCC and the A console in it is the API.
 
The SONAR console emulation is going to have to be pretty bada** to slay the Slate VCC. 2¢


I also have Slate VCC, so I'm wondering if this new console emulation in X2 is proprietary or "licenced".  And agreed, pretty tall order to outdo the Slate VCC.

Well, well... I was mentioning how it would be nice to be able to add automations to separate tracks, only the other day, here:-
