install X1c or just X1d with Expanded?

To install the SONAR X1d update, you must already have SONAR X1c Producer/Studio/Essential (Build 319) or SONAR X1 Expanded (Build 425) installed. If you have not already installed the X1c update, you can find it here.

From the Cakewalk Store: Please note that you must have SONAR X1 Producer and the latest SONAR X1c Update installed before you can install SONAR X1 Expanded. ie - You MUST have X1c installed.

Exactly

OK, this greatly helps. The in-depth installation instructions makes it more clear what the order if installation is and if X1c is still required if installing Expanded and the new X1d update. But to clarify my own confusion, the Installation Instructions says again... To install the SONAR X1d update, you must already have SONAR X1c Producer/Studio/Essential (Build 319) or SONAR X1 Expanded (Build 425) installed. Which makes it confusing because of the word, "or" and mentioning Expanded without listing X1c. So the way I read it was that I can go right to X1 Producer then Expanded and then apply the X1d update.

It's definitely wordy (so many different versions and updates!)

The reason for the word "or" is because they're separate. If it said "and" it would imply that everyone could install Expanded, which they can't unless they purchase it.

SONAR X1 Producer Expanded (build 425) installs over SONAR X1c Producer (Build 319). 
 
I guess to clarify further, despite others referring to it as "SONAR X1c Producer Expanded", I don't refer to it this way because the product is not referred to this way. The splash screen will list "SONAR X1 Producer Expanded (Build 425)". It's the "release build" of Expanded. To be honest, I'm not sure if I/we've accidentally referred to it this way in the past but I personally try to make a point to establish the difference between "SONAR X1c Producer" and "SONAR X1 Producer Expanded" simply because that's how it's identified by the product itself.

Anyhow, I'm glad the extra instructions helped. Sorry for the confusion once again.

Good grief.
