Confused: Pentagon presets issues PLEASE HELP!

Hi,

I had bought these directly from rgcAUdio before the takeover

Recently on a reformat I lost all my installers and had some problems with the Cakewalk registration tools..

Anyway, I got help through Cakewalk support forms and the resent me download links for the installers.


In BOTH cases I got DXI installers.

For example, the file is called pentagonDXi140.exe

I was also told I would need my serials to install but none of the installers actually asked for any. weird.

After some searching in the install location i did realise vst versions were also installed so I thought my problem was solved.

WELL!!!! Half the sounds in the default Pentagon F bank (Bigtone) sound completely different to what they did in the version I previously had from rgc AUDIO..i don't mean good different, but downright WEIRD!!

For example, the beautiful default Bank F (5th sweep pad) sounds in this version like lazer blips!!! where in reality it is a beautiful lush ambient pad!!

Can someone explain to me what is happening?

Can someone also tell me definitively once and for all, what is the latest versions of both z3ta+ and Pentagon .

Thanks in advance!

    Just to clarify, i have been informed I don't need the serials for install, that is normal, and the dxi installer actually has both versions, so basically, the problems here are only with pentagon 1 presets

    While this sentence is really strong, I don't doubt it might be true. Even when Pentagon I has been shipping with that same installer for five years. But first, let's check for pilot...

    Are you positive that you did install the Wavetable Library? as indicated in the Release Notes, bank F requires the Wavetable Library installed.

    no i didn't nstall the wavetable library so obviously there's the problem.

    cakewalk only sent me alink for the main installer.

    this may seem like a dumb question, but...where do find the wavetable library if it is not automatically installed?

    edit: nevermind...found them on the install for pentagon in sonar 6
