My broadband went down for most of the Webinar, thanks to my living in the sticks..
 
What was the special announcement?

Order during the Pre-Sale and get free DSF Strings HD for Dimension. Was hoping for something a little better as I'm not a big fan of their exspansion packs. Was hoping maybe for a free PC module or maybe half off. http://www.store.cakewalk...ductid=10-DSSS1.00-20E

Thanks for telling me.  Was that only for pre-sales?
 
What did you think of X2?

Yep, pre sales only.

I thought some of the new features are absolutely brilliant - you'll have to catch it on Youtube

Yes, I believe so. I liked what I saw of X2. Nothing mind blowing but a definite improvement over X1. It's kind of what I thought X1 SHOULD have been.

Ordered.  Too good to miss.

I saw a few bits.  Managed to miss the Console emulation.  What was it like?  Saw a tiny bit about the PC FX chains and loved it..

Although I was hoping for some kind of ProChannel special, DSF Symphonic Strings HD list for $149, so if you're upgrading from X1 Producer expanded to X2 for $99, it is quite a deal. I've just installed them and am going to check them out now.
 
I thought the X2 enhancements were splendid. I'm looking forward to a faster and smarter workflow.

They didn't demonstrate the difference between the 3 emus, but you could definitely hear a difference when they switched the one they were using in & out, and that was listening through headphones

"Nothing mind blowing"

Being able to put any effect in the PC isn't worth the price of admission on its own?
Really??
