Pentagon is a DirectX plug-in

Yup. I just inserted it into Reaper. Totally works.
 
Although I haven't tested what Cake plugs work in the Reap to a huge extent most of them seem to load for me.
 
I honestly thought a lot of this stuff would be locked to Sonar.
 
It's really lame of me to bring that up but I certainly don't intend to abandon Sonar. I just think it's cool I can do that when I need to.
 
And really... Reaper's plug package blows compared to Cake. If people want to buy Sonar SPlat just for the plugs then use them in another DAW... hell, who cares where the sale comes from, aye?
 
lol

As a rule Cakewalk does not lock their plug-ins to the DAW.

Oh... I see what you were saying. Yeah, I used VST instead of the more general "plug" or "instrument" or whatevs. Shows how new I am to all this. To me VST works interchangeably with "plugin" but of course that's just a format... and a newer one at that.
 
Sorry.

Were you messing with something other than Reaper the difference might have been more obvious.

Due to lack of DirectX support? Honestly I'd never heard of DirectX before I started using Sonar.
 
Well... more accurately I never knew any of the names of any of the plugin formats. I just poked at buttons and knobs until things sounded kind of sort of okay.
 
Total pro. Yup... that was me. Total pro. Just like I am now. lulz
