hmm..   Software I'll never use, or cheap date?  Let me think this one through...

Hmmm...X3 and Pro Channel does a really nice job as is, I think I'm going to keep my set up simple...I'll pass on this...32 bit software I'll never use ?? No. sorry. I'll take the cheap date instead.

Yes, but 3.0 will be out soon and it expected to be 64bit. Who knows, maybe if you buy now you'll get 3.0 at no cost.

That had crossed my mind too Ed, and was another reason for my taking a punt with this (other than the give-away price). And even if the new version isn't a free upgrade, I would have thought that there's bound to be a decent discount for registered users.
 
The 32bit limitation is stopping me from giving it much attention at the moment, but I reckon a 64bit version with 64bit VST support would definitely get some serious use.
 
One thing I'm struggling to grasp is the "Jack" feature, or more accurately it's lack of 'full' implementation in Windows. It seems a bit daft not to have addressed this when it works on Mac OS and Linux. Is Jack supposed to work like 'Rewire' I wonder. Being able to route the signal directly from SONAR in real time to Mixbus (and back?) would be what I really would like to be able to do.

Straummy,
 
"Jack" is supposed to be working in Widows now with 2.5. Check THIS out from the Software Forum.

Thanks for the link mate.
 
I tried southpaw's method but I can't get it to work. He doesn't appear to be using 'Jack' though.
 
Confused I am

You're using ASIO?
 
I've not tried it yet (my slave master has me working on a song right now ), but maybe he is actually using both of his soundcards? Maybe that's why he mentioned both.
 

 
Ah, I see. Would that explain why he chooses to monitor through just one application (Mixbus in this case)?
 
I'll have to whip out my VS-20 then.

You may have the right of it Straummy.

I couldn't be bothered to read through the whole thing, but this might help getting started w/ JACK.
