Kingston is the 2nd update from Cake that has produced some unusual issues in Plt for me. It seems - although I haven't tested extensively - that the soft synth delay issue from JP has been fixed along with the stalled VST scanning on the WAVES plug-ins. YAH! But oh, suddenly, my Subdestroyer 1 recent plug-in purchase from Plug-in Boutique, doesn't work. All the modules in the Pro Channel appear overloaded - showing red in EQ, Comp etc. Turning down the output in the sub doesn't do anything. No sound at all. Trying the VST 2 version just creates an audio overload white noise.
As I have a project that needed this sound/sythn -didn't have the time for alternatives - I had to again roll back to the ever faithful Ipswich, which continues to be the most stable for me...although I getting a Plt stopped working on occasions in the Start Screen and then selecting load other files.
So that's 2 months of paid for updates that don't work effectively on my platform or that I am unable to use without issues. It was all good up to JP and I was starting to like these monthly updates until the problems started. If I renew next year, then that means I'll be paying to stay on Ipswich until issues are fixed, which might not occur until some future unknown date. Perhaps we should only pay for those updates that work?
I'm liking Ipswich for the most part though, so I'm not saying I'm abandoning Sonar or anything. I just want to be able to successfully use the updates I've paid for without issues...ideal world I suppose. :-(
