I jumped on the X3 upgrade deals (previously 8.5, then X2) just prior to Platinum being announced/released, so I'm not looking to upgrade anytime soon. Especially since the best I've heard about the upgrade is "not earth shattering". lol
Not sure how it's changed in Platinum, but in X3 the comping is kinda annoying IMO but I understand why they went this route. It *works*, I just envision being able to tag lanes as audible so you can hear them when recording another lane. The automatic muting of other lanes has frustrated me a few times. If they want us to live in this folder/track/lane architecture they need to give us control over everything they possibly can. Instead they expect us to wrap our workflow around their design. Sounds like Micro$oft engineering. There's other minor annoyances I just can't think of them atm.
