DSF Strings is only available to "Early adoters", i.e. pre-sales. 

Except for the fact that it isn't. If you by X2 now, you still get it, so yeah as the OP says .....what did you really get for buying during the pre-sale ? Answer - exactly the same as everyone else apart from having to pay for it weeks in advance without being entirely sure exactly when you would get it, but rest assured important customers, we promise you'll get it a whole day before anyone else!

The conflicting messages/marketing coming from CW these days is just ridiculous and just counteracts all the things they do well.

"You also get the DSF Symphonic Strings....a $149.00 value! ABSOLUTELY FREE! " I can't read anywhere that it's only for the pre-sale period... as for the other offers! Just seems to be there whenever you buy X2, only have to be the producer version? It is why I'm asking, doesn't think the pre-sale advertising is clear... Is it just me? :-) Zouki

It's in the buy it now email I got last night too...
 
Also today I can get an upgrade for 8.5 Producer until the end of October via a local retailer for £20 cheaper than an existing X1 Producer owner can from the Cakewalk store.  It's £80 cheaper buying it that way than I can get the same thing directly from Cakewalk for. 
 
Go figure.  Certainly shop around.
 
But yes some got it a day early so rejoice!

  Yes, just my words! Cakes marketing is... :-) Zouki

I think the DSF strings deal is good till the end of the month. 

I got X2 after the pre sale and I still got the
strings free. 

… and it seems every time I buy something it
goes on special right after I buy it! Or the next
special is something I already have…Drats!

Those of us who upgraded to Production Suite for $100 got a welcomed surprise too.  Thinking we were only gonna get the PC4K expander/limiter and the upgrade to full Rapture with the "Suite" upgrade...we got the Symphonic Strings too...!

I just used them on a project today...!  Thank You CW...!
