The open question is: do Cakewalk have any intention of fixing them?
Too bad nobody here can answer. I asked 10 000 times already...
The fact they never released any V-studio 700 related product ever speaks for itself. No expansion faders. No 64 bits fantom support. The Octa-capture was based on the vs700r technology hence the vs expand. It was not designed for us. Just a new flagship interface that happen to work with the VS.
Anyway, now that we
know that the VS-700's golden days are over, I think we should unite our individal knowledge on how to work with it the way it is instead of hoping it will ever be improved.
Cakewalk still provide bug fixes so there's no reason to stop filling bug report. Can't say the same about feature request though... but may be worth it also.
It's been a while since I've recorded anything cause I'm building my studio right now, so I can't comment on anything but I'll be sure to stay in tune and try to help if possible.
See ya
