Has the Reference Guide expired?

Is there an authoritative reference source for Splat features anywhere?  'Support Home/Online Documentation' stops at X3.  Is there an updated version of the .pdf Reference Guide anywhere?  I always filed the ezines, and now they're discontinued I'm finding it hard to nail the new tweaks and keep up.  I have Scott G's Sonar Power X3 and various videos, but they're all getting a bit dated now, although still very informative and useful, of course.  What do others do?

    Thanks, Paul! Glad you're still enjoying the book. Working on something new. Stay tuned. In the meantime, new videos will be going up on my YouTube channels shortly...

    At X3 you've gone too far.

    Select Sonar English if that's your native language.

    The command center has an item for local documentation. It will download the latest PDF and help files. The pdf does not always keep up with every month, but it beats X3 by a lot.

    The reference manual pdf was updated in December and includes all the new features to that point. It is in your install directory if you have updated the documentation subset under Sonar in the CCC.
     
     

    Win 10 Pro x64, 32Gb DDR3 ram, Sonar Platinum, Cubase 9.5, Mackie MCU Pro, Cakewalk VS 100, Roland Octa-Capture,  A 800 Pro, Carver M-1.5t amp & C4000 pre amp, various mics, drums and brass instruments.
     
    And away we go!

    I have found the new (January 1017) L-Phase .pdfs in my Cakewalk Content folder - and some older ones - so I think that's up-to-date.  But no Reference Guide pdf.  I have re-run CCC and have all greens. I can access the offline help, but that isn't what I was looking for, that's all html, isn't it?  All my file paths are the defaults.  I just want to print out the occasional section and maybe put the Reference Guide on a tablet to make it easier to use for those unfamiliar bits I sometimes need to check.  Can't I do that?

    The "Sonar Reference Guide.pdf is in

    C:/Program Files/Cakewalk/Sonar Platinum/

    Substitute Artist or Professional above if you have those versions.
