More ACT woes

After months of hair pulling and time wasting I finally managed to get my Oxygen 8v2 working to a setup I was happy with in Sonar LE only to find 2 weeks later when I start a new project that the settings seem to have changed themselves again.

Now when using the ACT setup screen turning rotary 2 also affects the values that are supposed to be controlled by rotaries 3 and 5 and vica versa.  Trying to re-learn them has no effect, I can't override them so they appear to be linked together in some way.  ie. even when learning R3 and twiddling rotary 3 on the controller R3 "learns" that it is linked to rotary 3 but the value of R2 also goes up and down too when I twiddle the knob.   This has the unwanted effect of twiddling all 3 knobs on whatever softsynth I'm using that are assinged to rotaries 2,3 and 5.  I have confirmed that there is nothing wrong with the controller by bypassing ACT and just manually assigning the rotaries to the relevant knobs directly on the softsynth.  I can then control each thing I want individually.  So it's just ACT being rubbish again.  Any ideas how to unlink these 3 rotaries?

Also, I'm considering upgrading my LE to a regular version of Sonar as I really like it and would like some of the features that are  disabled in LE but the fact that ACT is so rubbish really is a deal breaker for me.  Has it been improved at all in version 8?

Yeah, I had it set up perfectly, saved it in my own preset and now it no longer works properly.  Even reloading the preset has no effect.

Ok, cheers. 

I thought that each rotary would send a different code so Sonar would be able to tell the difference between each rotary.  I wasn't aware that I had to make a preset for the actual controller, I didn't even know you could.  When you mentioned preset I thought you meant saving the settings as a controller preset in the ACT setup screen, which I did.
