New Updates for Platinum?

I just ran Command Center and there are new updates for Classic Creative FX Suite, Studio Instruments Suite, Cakewalk Loopmasters Content Collection & Sonar Local Documentation. When I click on 'Learn More', it takes me to the Cakewalk.com landing page. Has anyone else seen these updates? Is this the monthly update?

It appears things are coming down the pipeline, as expected, but are not announced yet. New forum/feedback portal (Bakery), these updates. Presumably (hopefully) a core program update as well but you never know. Bakers be busy beavers! Have to hit the hay here now (late in Germany) but looking forward to figuring it all out tomorrow.

What you're seeing is not the main monthly update. I kind of wish it was, I'd be done with the eZine by now
 
CW does update other elements "outside" of the main update from time to time, so that's probably what's happening here.

After installing the new help documentation files and opening Sonar Platimun, clicking on the first help menu item takes me to an updated "new features" list online documenting the November updates (but not really saying much about the updates that triggered this thread). See http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=SONAR&language=3&help=0x180D6

I am truly astonished at the cleverness of the Bakers. None of those things are things I would have thought of yet they are all fine additions to Sonar. Each one very useful. Heck when I saw audio engine improvements thought what is there left to do?  So I check it and find out now they are making Sonar even more accepting of just about any audio device one could throw at it. Very cool update and it makes me excited about it.
 
I do wonder about the help for new user thing. I think Sonar is just too deep for quick learning.

Oops, someone hit the upload button too soon ? Oh well, nice to preview what's coming.
Craig, we'll still read your eZine . . . always look forward to it.
Looking forward to Matrix View enhancements, and didn't we already have "open synth from track view" . . . at least that's how I've been opening my synths for many years now ?

Thanks! Actually this is kind of cool because the eZine can concentrate on applications, like how to use the Lenses. 
 
BTW the audio engine enhancement is off the hook - I'm getting 3 ms latency with a RealTek chip on a circa 2012 laptop...10 ms under shared mode with YouTube, Groove Music, and other Windows stuff open at the same time as SONAR.
 
The super-low latency (remember, with an onboard sound chip there are also no USB buffers) means when doing workshops I will never again have to carry around an ASIO interface! The only downside of that is fewer lively conversations with TSA agents about "what's that suspicious-looking box and why does your luggage have all those cables and batteries..."
 
If nothing else, I foresee the end of ASIO4ALL for SONAR users. Of course once that happens, forum activity about things not working will take a nosedive so the site's SEO will suffer. You take the good with the bad

They list "Open Synth From Track View" as a new feature, but that sounds like how it always worked.

I noticed here that the improvements seem to be to WASAPI audio. I am currently using ASIO with my focusrite 18i20. Is there any reason why I shouldn't be using WASAPI? I have just always used ASIO since using my old PODxt live as my audio interface back in the day.

So I updated the currently available options. I noticed that the media browser, under "Audio Library" the audio clips are now organized better. There are two new sub-folders, one is Backing Tracks the other is FX. Also, the Loops and One Shots folders now contain sub-folders organized by type of sound (i.e. HiHats, Snares etc)

The best part? There is a file in the backing track folder called 90 Canadian Alternative - Em which sounds just like a Kingston band like the Hip or The Headstones! Gave me a real chuckle. :)

Hey guys,
 
I'm seeing current and latest version 2016.10 (22.10.0.19)...is that correct?  I'm not seeing 2016.11 in my Command Center...
 
Thanks!

Hey Craig,
 
Is this on 2016.10 or 2016.11?  I'm not seeing 2016.11 on my Command Center yet.  I would love to try the native drivers...that would be considered as native correct?..similar to Core Audio on OSX?
 
Thanks!
