As a NCFC fan I find the name offensive. 

Then you are going to hate SONAR Manchester
 
 

At work now but when I get home...?
Thanks Cake!  You made my day!

Thanks for all your hard work, bakers. I have it downloaded but won't be able to install till this weekend. But I'm sure it will be awesome!!

What is this regression you are always banging on about?

Max and Grit sound real nice with the CA-2A.  Guess I'll have to buy a new hard drive to contain all the the wave files I'm already have fun recording in real time. Everything feels stable.  Like PilotGav said "Goodbye Pro Tools".

I expected to find the style knobs a bit too basic to be worthwhile, but the "Grit" one is actually marvellous. I can see myself using that quite a lot.

Wow!! Fantastic. Thanks Cakewalk.

What is this regression you are always banging on about?

Regressive wining is a syndrome common to flamers and other depressed humans.  It's akin to the spoiled little brat that comes to a party with a needle and proceeds to pop all the balloons...
 
It's an unfortunate syndrome which permeates most forums these days...it derives joy out of making disturbing public noises in the midst of a joyful symphony...

I just downloaded the Sonar update and local help file update as well as the CCC update.

I was trying to find any other updates that are required expecting the new PC modules would be separate but didn't see such.

Are they included within the Sonar update?

Are there any other downloads updated for this month?

It appears I won't install until tomorrow... But I'm anxious to play!

And you are also the first person here to unnecessarily attack somebody and bring the thread down, and you are now stirring up a bun fight. Congratulate yourself you've just made this thread nasty.

I'm sorry you don't like people talking about regression here. I have already thanked and congratulated Cakewalk here already but some people here love to stir up and polarise everything.

FYI some people might find a candid talking about regression issues useful. The good news is there does not seem that many so far, but it is early days.

I think this could turn out to be a pretty good release. I'm sorry though if nothing but a round of applause is allowed. You should note without decent feedback issues do not get fixed. I prefer interact from a community stance.

This is also a question I hope to see others explain from Boydie:

Can someone explain the "real time synth recording" update as I am not understanding what the problem was and what the update has fixed?

I have always recorded synths in real time along with the track playing? - so I am guessing it is referring to something else and a problem I never came up against?

There was no problem, this is a new feature people have asked for a long time and Cakewalk have delivered.
Have you checked the ezine link on the first post. That will probably explain "direct synth recording" better.
Cheers..

Nice work. I just happen to log onto the cakewalk forum and I find the next update is available. Put a smile on my dial and a few new dials in the Pro Channel. In fact, the new single knob Pro Channel effects are just the Bees Knees, the Cats Whiskers, the Ducks Guts and a lot more of those things. Can't wait to press them into action.
I am, however, still exploring some of the additions from the G update, let alone the H update.

Read the eZine. Looks great. Can we get some attention paid to automation now? Like maybe some automation "track" type stuff where the user can draw/record/edit automation and have it affect multiple automation envelopes in a project. Basically a "write it/assign it" (or vice versa) set up that then writes the automation into the ACTUAL automation lanes. Maybe a "send to" pasting style option that can be pasted using range select (so you can overwrite parts of existing envelopes without overwriting the whole thing). Stuff like that. It would sure make my life a million times simpler.
 
As to this update. I have personally experienced (and have been frustrated with) the following things that are now supposedly fixed... so thanks.
 
oops... copy/pasting from the eZine goes schizo soo...
 
The disappearing transients thing is HUGE and was the one thing that made AS almost unuseable for me in X2 (and seemed to lead to crashes). I have not tried the new AS in SPlat but if it was still doing this but now has been fix.... THANK YOOOOOUUU!!!!
 
Undoing overlapped clips leaving an extra take lane... yup. That's annoying.
 
Track folders moving to the bottom. I think that was a new oddity that I've just started noticing and it is very disorienting. Glad that's dealt with.
 
Shift click not working... I was wondering what the heck was going on there. Another new one (I think) that I guess is now fixed.
 
Drag dropping Browser clips creating new unwanted lanes... yup. I think that's an old one. Not a big deal but it causes extra head scratching.
 
The PRV keyboard think might explain some confusion I've had but I have been screwing around in PRV that much lately.
 
The hotkeys thing could explain some odd tool behavior.
 
Extra transients in Audiosnap probably led to the chaos of my previous AS experiences. Sounds about right.
 
 
=======================================
 
So yeah, lots of fixes this round that apply directly to ME.... and as we all know, it's all about ME!
 
:-p
 
Thanks, doods. I'll be waiting a while to install but if it passes the stingent user testing in the coming weeks I am looking forward to it.
 

This fixed all my problems. Thank you Cakewalk for a great update!

Hmm I tried making a project with an apostrophe in the name and it worked perfectly in Ipswich for me.
What is an example of a file name that doesn't open?
