New computer, install X1 + X2 + X3 or just X3 ? AAS Player ?

Hi, wll be installing Sonar X3 on my new computer and not sure if I should first install X1 + X2.
So far I could only think of maybe having a prob with the AAS Player that came with X2 + the AAS packs I bought.
Comparing the plugins included I would not need X1 + X2.
Would appreciate any comments/tips -> thanks

    AAS player is not bundled with SONAR. It is a free download from AAS. May want to grab a fresh copy from their site. I cannot recall having issues with AAS player but I rarely used the plug-in.
     
    If it were my decision, I would install X3 only and apply the e update, then run advanced installs of the older versions to grab any of the plug-ins I used which are not part of X3.

    Now ran the first of 4 installation files (the X3 files I kept when I bought X3 and saved on a external drive), but can't install X3 part 2...it says 'please download and run previous packages' although I succesfully installed part 1 (I can open Sonar already).
    Any ideas/comments much appreciated..

    I believe you want to have all 4 installers in the same directory and rerun the first one. All the installers will run in series without any interaction on your part. If the installers were in the same directory, you may already have a complete installation.

    But if you want be able to use V-Vocal, it will be necessary to install X2 (albeit w/o plugins) before X3.

    No, Rapture is included with X3.

    Some of the plugins included with X2 or X1 and excluded from X3:
    R-MIX
    Vintage Channel
    Guitar Rig LE

    This is by no means a comprehensive list. There is a spreadsheet detailing which plugins were included in each Sonar version (Producer Edition only).

    thanks Kev, I used to grab Vintage Channel compressor a lot.
    Now using the Tokyo Dawn Labs Feedback compressor II (free, easy install without registering or anything).
    For this one I wanted donate a few bucks, did not find a 'donate' button unfortunately.

    Those installers can be extracted via 7zip or similar, just make sure all files are in the same folder prior to launching the setup.exe. This can take the extraction overhead out of the installation.

    ASUS ROG Maximus X Hero (Wi-Fi AC), i7-8700k, 16GB RAM, GTX-1070Ti, Win 10 Pro, Saffire PRO 24 DSP, A-300 PRO, plus numerous gadgets and gizmos that make or manipulate sound in some way.

    Keep in mind that you don't have to install the full versions of Sonar X1, or X2, just install the plugins you want from them.  There will be no need to install any previous version of Sonar as you already have Sonar X3 installed.  
     
    Start the installation and select advanced installation
    Select only the items you want installed and deselect everything else.
    Now you will only have the plugins you want from the earlier Sonar versions and not the previous versions of Sonar itself.
     

     

     
    I hope this helps,

    Peace,
