Cakewalk Please Release Style Dials

I guess this frog was hibernating and is not aware that no one will hear his croaking.. 
Please read the top sticky thread. 

What version of SONAR do you have?

This request may not be but it would help to know which version of SONAR so I can keep the typing to a minimum.

I'm on Sonar Platinum. I'm enjoying my lifetime membership by crossgrading to Cubase 9.5 Pro.
 
Years ago I worked for awhile on the Paramount lot.  And when they cleared out an office they just threw everything in a dumpster.  I looked in one of the desks and there was still money in a drawer.  A lot of money.  
And there was a "Star Trek" set that they just trashed. Somebody might have paid a hundred thousand for that. They did that kind of stuff daily.
 
The way that Gibson operates under CEO Henry Juszkiewicz reminds me of this kind of thinking. Along with trashing all their faithful Sonar customers, they are trashing Gibson Guitars.  (If you haven't seen the YouTube videos, they attack them with hammers, rather than give blemished guitars away.)
 
Soon all the dominos will fall. RIP Gibson.  You were a grand old American brand.
 
I am liking Cubase though.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Yes, I have seen that I have all those plugins, and I appreciate that.  
Perhaps you could fill me in a bit...
 
Boost11 is one knob peak limiter.
TL-64 is a one-knob tube leveler.  I'll have to experiment and find out what that means exactly
Percussion Strip is a complex thing with many parameters, but it does have a tube saturation slider
Vocal Strip also is complex, and has a tube saturation slider.  
 
The only one-knob plug I'm aware that I own is the Softube Saturation knob.
 
I recognize that I can accomplish whatever I want using all the plugs I have. That's what I do when I mix.
 
But sometimes I don't work towards a finish, I just play for fun. One of the things I loved about Sonar is I could just  pull up a knob and make something louder or add ambiance.   
 
If it bugs me I can buy the Waves OneKnob series  That's currently available for $52 at AudioDeluxe. I might do it. 
 
 

I have no idea what parameters were used in the style dials but I doubt Cakewalk used anything more than the capabilities built into FX chains for programming the knob. The point is, you have the plug-ins and it is far more likely now that you know the plug-in names that you can spend some time in your new DAW setting them up in a way that works for you. At this time, I would not expect Cakewalk to alter any of their products other than to provide what they have committed to in the FAQ.

The style dials, were one of those pleasant surprises that came with a sonar update, wow.....I love the style dials........the fact that we received it free just as part of being a sonar owner was so cool.......that really sold me on sonar.......
