Thank you, msorrels!!! That did it.

Glad it helped.  RX4's full interface hooked to Sonar is actually very slick and works pretty well.  The connect and other methods work too, but the full deal easily launched from Sonar is not to be under estimated. 
 
Cakewalk really needs to put the complete documentation on the Tools menu somewhere public.  Maybe even add a tool to Sonar to let user's edit the tool menu.  Documentation that only exists in an obscure forum post is not really good support.

I'd like to see it configurable within Sonar. Hacking around in the registry is no fun and can cause all kinds of problems.

There's been a knowledge base article for a few years now.

https://www.cakewalk.com/...e-to-SONARs-Tools-menu

The KB article doesn't document ANY of the various Types supported by Sonar nor any of the other options (like this one necessary to turn off the sending of a region flag to WaveEditor entries).
 
 

I never used a wave editor with Sonar (at least not in the last 10 years).
 
Is this basically like the ARA with Melodyne and V-vocal?
 
In other words, do you select a region, edit it, and then the region is updated?
 
If that is the case then why is there ARA?
 
Hope its not a stupid question.
 
 
 

Not really like that. You send something out to a different application via the tools menu. You then do whatever you want to do in there, and when you close and save the file, it re-loads automatically into Sonar with your changes. Much less streamlined than an ARA-type process, as it doesn't take place within Sonar.

I understand what you say and realise it needs an update. I just wanted to point out that the information was not only located in some obscure forum thread as had been stated. Cakewalk have documented this function in their Knowledge Base articles for many years, though having re read the linked thread again, clearly it's very abbreviated to provide just a basic function.
Sonar has provided this feature for as long as I remember. In much earlier versions of Sonar even in the ProAudio days, the function was provided in the Utilities menu.

You obviously are much more computer savvy than I am (explain it better than me) why not put in a feature request to update the current Knowledge base with the info that Noël provided in that thread. I think for the masses this kind of feature is not on most people's radar, though I agree it should be better documented in a more accessible place.

There has been discussion on the forum about creating and updating docs for use of advanced functions and techniques. This would qualify for sure. Provided by and for the user base as well as updated by us.

This is a fascinating thread. I run both RX4 and Sonar Platinum. However, RX4 does not show up in the Sonar UTILITIES menu, although it is visible on the plugin manager. Do I need to perform registry editing to implement the RX4 audio editor per the Knowledge Base article about this linked above? This procedure is very old. Is there a more up-to-date procedure!
 

If you already have RX4 setup in the tools menu then just add info as per this instruction that was given in post #9 above.

"So just add a DWORD RegionFlag 0 into your RX tools menu registry and no more error in RX4 on startup."

If you're not sure refer to the linked article on how to add a DWORD to the current registry entry you have for RX4.


Correction. Please substitute Utilities for Tools.
