You don't have a Cakewalk coffee mug either? 

THEY SELL COFFE MUGS.....cool, Actually I knew they sold coffee mugs but I did not buy one because their coffee mugs only use VST 2.4 and they are not VST 3.0. compatible. I guess I will pick some other mug to put my coffee in.

I was in yesterday!

Just went with just the d/l this time. First time I did that. 

..all systems go. T minus and counting.

I'm in too!

hmm... this might max out my bandwidth limit. How big is all this gonna be?

Yep, I ordered it too. Already tried out the DSF strings, and I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and variety there. Previous to that I had ordered the DSF Steinway package (got it for $80 instead of $100), but I absolutely hated it. I even like my True Piano Amber better, plus that doesn't take so long to load the samples. But now that I have Pianoteq (physically modelled piano VST) I'm using that on everything and it's sweet.

So anyway, X2 looks like a nice improvement for a minimal investment. I expect that it will be available for download by Sept. 30th.

Well the DSF Strings file is 1.3GB. The X1 download totalled just short of 15GB - I can't see X2 being any smaller. 

@Luteman... I could see that potentially maxing me out. Maybe I can time it so I snag the first couple of download packs before the end of the month and then when my new monthly bandwidth clock starts ticking download the rest. I've only gone over once and that was when I was downloading audio programs. Maybe it'll be fine. The stupid ISP caps me at 75GB a month and then charges a ridiculous amount for every gig above that.

You won't need to d/l the full 15GB to start using X2 right away. Just d/l the SONAR_X2_PRODUCER (and maybe the README and Docs) files ~6GB and you can get started.

@Beepster - my stupid ISP caps me at 10GB/month because I'm too cheap to get a bigger package :-)
Thank heavens for unlimited download at work . . . and the miracle that is a memory stick!
