... oh and btw have searched other threads here for resolution of the issue, and this problem goes back to at least 2006, and yes, I've tried the REX Shared Library.dll install route, that's not the issue here (all the rest of the .progs on my system, whether using D-Pro 1.2, D-Pro 1.5 (VSTi) or D-Pro 1.2 (DX), work fine); it just seems to be some problem with these particular sets of .progs.
Would like some clarity on why this five-year-long outstanding issue's never gotten a clear resolution, if possible.
I wouldn't really worry about this nit except for the fact that it, plus some other sloppiness on Cakewalk's part with regard to dealing with past versions of Dim Pro and the X1 upgrade (seriously, at the very least, you should know how to spell, er.... "Dimension" by now? not "Dimention"??? illiteracy much?? <G>), wasted a LOT of my time on a Friday night yesterday. I enjoy software but it's little annoyances like these that send me back to my Moog Voyager and a pair of headphones. When it works Sonar is great, but it's still, as far as I'm concerned, a very fragile, easy-to-break environment.
Sometimes, simplicity's where it's at. ;)
