I've just seen the size of the X1 download...
... and I've done a doody in my undies. 12 Gigabytes?!?!?! Please tell me this is an early April Fool's joke. Grum.

Well, from what I read, you might not need to download all 12 GB. Some of the stuff you might already have on your machine.
With all the content, I'm not surprised.

Well I hope I have the necessary content to make it manageable! I've only just upgraded to 8.5 due to the offer and that download was painful and it's nothing like that size.
Grum.

Beatscape and the Dimension Pro and the Session Drummer libaries will be the lions share of the 12GB. Presumably none of that will have changed. If your connection is not up to it there is always the boxed version.

I hope my internet will be okay. It can be very changable in its capabilities - the first time I tried the 8.5 upgrade download it was very slow and it said it was finished after around 50% of the data was received! The next time I tried it was okay. I have all of the sound library stuff already so if Sonar is a (split) 5 GB things might go okay. Fingers crossed  Grum.

Oh man. The PT9 download was 4 gigs and that took me an entire day to download. So I guess that means X1 is 3 times better than PT, right?

Some Day we'll find out how much that will be (boxed version). I don't understand why they're being so silent about it?

Early December is probably an expensive time to have things put in boxes. The *box* people are probably working hard to fulfill orders placed last spring and scheduled for the seasonal swell.

Brandon said something about free shipping.
Ok, so I've done the vids, I want with all my heart and it's going to be the download version (I think I can live without the 64 page quick start)
So do I just wake up wednesday and order, and get the SN/download right away (and yes I know the servers will be a bit busy)

Hi all,
Im hoping Cakewalk plays it smart with this downloading session. I'd like to see Critical files in 1 file "Sonar X1 Install basically" with all data types as a separate downloads (IE DP, audio clips etc) as well as the manual separate. This will at least ensure us Sonar users can get the new version up and running, setup and ready to go while we DL the data.
Looking forward to the 8TH :D
Best,

Yes. I'm still debating whether I put on fresh undies before I start the DL or after. What do you say?

Under normal circumstances I would not have any issues with 12mb using either my Dubai or UK ISPs. In a lot of cases however its the servers at the other end that get overloaded. Native Instruments have just had a big promotion and they got completly overloaded, it was a real mess.

Oh Supcomposer, you are just so doggone wonderful in your splendiferousness. I'll never get 12 gigs downloaded in under a half an hour. Fiddlesticks! How on earth did you manage to become the glorius puffery filled being that you are?? Did you eat a lot of Haggis??

LOL!
BTW, the "manual" is a 64 quick start. I can deal with a pdf for a quick start.
