Dimension Pro missing plugins
Hi:
I just bought a new computer and, as a result, did a fresh install of Sonar x2 and Dimension Pro 1.5 [“DM”].
I have a current project that I’m working on where I’m using DM extensively throughout. However, as a result of the fresh installs, when I open the project a message pops up saying that the DM plugins are missing or are improperly installed.
I did some digging and Cakewalk has previously addressed this issue with the following advice:
“This is a result of the identifier for the plugin having changed so the host is not able to locate the old plugin since it is replaced by the new plugin. It is not a problem of the plugin or of the installer, just simply a matter of changing the plugin reference in the host project by removing the instance of Dimension Pro in the project then re-inserting it.”
I’m concerned about following the advice in that if I remove the instances of DM from the project, I’ll lose all the settings and edits that I have made to the various DM samples that I have been working with. Then again, perhaps I’m misinterpreting the advice and, if done correctly, I won’t lose anything.
Another webpage from Cakewalk simply says "exit SONAR without saving, reinstall the missing plug-ins and then re-open the project." Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to reinstall the missing plugins.
Any help/instructions would be very much appreciated.
Thanks very much.
