Quick Question.
 
I have been with Sonar since 7PE, back when it was on media.
 
I then upgraded to X3PE and then to SPlat.
 
After I clean install Win10, where do I have to start with Sonar.
 
Do I have to first install X3?
 
Or, do I just install CCC and go from there?

I assume you booted off Win10 install media and formatted the disk when installing Windows 10, custom install, after you did an upgrade (that's a full clean install)...
 
Platinum does not contain some plugins supplied in older versions. If you really need them suggest you get that out the way first. Look at the Platinum specs to see what you are missing. You can do custom installs of each version of Sonar to individually install ancient plugins. I strongly urge you go 64 bit only though at this stage, and consider less might be more. Anyway whatever your requirement.
 
There is a thread somewhere that lists plugins with all Sonar versions, can't find it though, somebody might post a link.
 
If you really need to install old versions of Sonar first (you shouldn't need to do so) do it in sequential order, oldest first. CCC will only install Platinum BTW.
 
Make sure your audio interface is on the latest firmware and drivers. Consider updating your BIOS, and visiting the intel driver update site.
 
Otherwise just charge into CCC. Make sure the settings within CCC are correctly configured before you begin install.
 
And don't forget to backup with something like Acronis once you've finally got everything running.
 
Cheers..

Hi. It would depend on which plugins you want to keep.

When I went through this last weekend, i installed 8.5; X2; X3; and Platinum. I skipped X1 because there were no plugins or optional bits that weren't provided by the others.

Well FYI again, you don't need to install the main Sonar app to install the plugins. Unless you want to for some reason. And remember kids.. Less is more ;) Cheers..

Except for V-Vocal.
