    Wow. I thought you were asking about something from the early 90's. If a song recorded in last years version wouldn't work in  todays version, I don't think there would be much market for upgrades!

    The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.

    gloog - yes you can open older projects. But you'll run into some trouble if you don't have all of the plugs installed that you used on the old project. Sometimes, for me, it causes a project to act like it's loading, but I eventually have to use the Task Manager to quit Sonar.

    If that happens, open the old project in safe mode by holing down the shift button while clicking to open the project, so you can isolate any trouble from missing plugs.

    Twigman - your avatar seems so droll, but I can't help looking at it.

    Hey thanks for rapid responses

    I know it seemed a dumb query given that there's not much difference age wise!
    I do have some old projects that a mate has that are on a 6.0 pc.

    My main issue was the plugins and apps that I use/have used.......basically as long as they match should be fine......

    Cheers
