All good here,and I'm nicely surprised,by even the included TH2 Sonar,and the Breverb,but especially the Pro Channel FX Chains deal,really liking that.

Console emulation is a little underwhelming,which I'm guessing as it should be[?],as I was kind of underwhelmed by Waves NLS as well,and I keep thinking as its,you know "emulating a console" it should be "on top",but the meters hardly move it seems,even when gain staging,per Zo's Gain staging vids[which are helpful].

No crashes or weirdness,in fact the exact opposite,and with a project that has a ton of Amp sim tracks/Waves Comps,etc etc,I swear the CPU meter is showing almost HALF as tall via the yellow lines,and they're WAY more EVEN,so that is very noticeable,and its not just visual as the same project/plugs,was glitching,as the meter was so high,and now its clean,so I'm pretty sure the CPU use is much better optimized.

Anyone else experience this?

This is all 64bit on my dell xps laptop so far,but will test more with 32bit and x64 with desktop tommorrow.

drawing automation in lanes is so much easier now

Unfortunately had a lot of crashes since istalled X2 producer. Strange X1 had no problems with crashes at all. Happens mostly when changing from track to pro channel at the master bus trying to change sound source from one sound card to another after changing from wdm to asio drivers.

  Yes, same here. First time using X2 since the upgrade from X1 Producer Expanded Crashed running an 8 bar loop with four tracks. One instance of Absynth 5 and one of Dim Pro 1.5 plus two tracks of audio drum loops. Nothing strenuous.

Chrisland: I do those changes like mad and haven't seen this happen. Can you give me a recipe as to how you are doing it exactly and I'll try to see if I can make it happen on this end? I can't use WDM on my end at all. For some reason, I can't even get sound out of any version of Sonar since I made the switch to Win 7. But I have no problems with ASIO and switch cards/outputs up all the time without a problem.

Audiosynth: you just reminded me....I had "loop" going on when X2 crashed on me last night. When I tried to make it crash again, I had forgotten that was enabled. I wonder if there is something weird going on with loop? I never use it in any Sonar version, but last night I was working on a small section of a guitar track and wanted it to keep looping so I could experiment with the console emulation. That's when it crashed on me. I'm going to try it now that you reminded me I was using loop mode.
