Rapture LE shipped with X1. Unless you bought the full version or it came in special promo bundle you only have the LE version.

But the Suite didn't give me the full version of Rapture I'm assuming... and now I get the full version. Correct? And DimPro was a full version when purchasing X1 Suite? Sorry... like I said, this crap is confusing to me especially when I don't even know what the heck half this stuff is. I was looking at PC modules earlier to figure what I already had and the only thing I DO have at the moment that came with the suite that doesn't come with Expanded was that expander/gate dealymabob. Now gotta figure out if I'll be getting any new stuff with X2 because I think I'd like the Concrete limiter... so I was looking at the module pack... but it has the expander/gate in it... which I already have... and... *head asplode*

OT but I'm curious, Bub... why has the forehead axe returned?
I dunno to be honest. I got bored with what I was using.

I gotta come up with some new pics. :)

X1 Producer came with Full DimPro, z3ta1.5, Rapture LE and a bunch of other synths/fx. The Suite added all the Producer Expanded stuff/ PC Expander/Gate and z3ta+2.
X2 is the first version of SONAR with full Rapture.

I've ordered it too. R - mix looks the business. Gonna watch the webinar on youtube in dribs and drabs in between Breaking bad episodes ;-) The Dimension strings are downloaded, not installed yet. I'll download all the files, then back them up on DVD in my X! box along with all the patches, anderton vids, pc modules etc. I don't need no more steeenking boxes!

Thanks again, scook. I'm really itching on this Concrete Limiter I think now. I was watching the promo and it seems to do something I've always sucked at... which is draw out the bottom to bottom mid range of a mix. I don't know if it's my guitar ears or what but I can NAIL searing guitar tones and screecher vox but that bottom always ends up lacking or muddy no matter what I do. There's gotta be something in my toolkit already or some tricks I need to learn to get that bowel churning sound but darned if I know what it is. Seems like a useful button to have... but it's an $80 button. :-(

Here's a free lesson for you, the PC modules have gone on sale a couple of times times already. Pay retail if you can't wait but don't grumble when they drop the price by 50%.
