I am having crashes none stop since loading new update..none before???

Since the August update, many projects will not load.
 
I have a feeling it's when there are missing plugins. Sonar freezes after the "Missing Plugins" screen appears.
 
Interestingly - I have a FaderPort attached, and it goes nuts at the same time. The fader moves up and down very quickly  about an inch, and the mute and solo buttons are flashing.

Thanks for your work!
 
1 question .... with the new browser and categories settings ... if I have hidden vst2 in preferences should VST 2 versions of Sampletank and UHE software appear?

We can only hide compatible VST2 versions if the VST3 versions of the same plugin advertise compatibility with them. Otherwise SONAR has no way of knowing. Its unlikely that UHE and sampletank do this.

OMG! The CPU usage has dropped drastically! Now the cores are balanced. Amazing!!

Was this improved in this update? I don't see anything from Cakewalk mentioning this important tweak...

There have been several improvements to effects bins in preparation for another feature so its possible that these could have improved performance. We'll talk about it more when the other feature ships :)

Hi Noel any news for our crash?
It's my first bad experience with the update.
Thanks in advance

This version also immediately crashes on launch on my system.  The 2016.07 release works fine.
I reported the issue on the problem reports forum 4 days ago.
Details here : http://forum.cakewalk.com/201608-build-228028-Immediate-crash-on-launch-m3467801.aspx
nb. I've included the exception details & the callstack to make this as easy as possible to fix.
Hoping for a fix very soon

Hi Foldaway,
 
 Sorry your previous Early Release post was not responded to.  I believe someone is in touch with you now regarding this and we may PM you for more info.
 
Sorry again,
Jim

Thanks Jim.  Yes, I've responded to Dave via PM with some more info, which will hopefully help.  Very much looking forward to using the update.

Here's a quick sample recording I made using the 2016.08 updated Sonar. It's working great for me !!
