Now if CCC were smart enough to see that I already have Rapture and D Pro installed and turn off its red LEDs that would be a good thing (he says hopefully). And if the layout didn't make it look as if anything I am looking at is a Trial Product. And if the layout made clear that it is displaying the name and number of the upgrade that I already have installed, as well as displaying the name of the pending upgrade, that would be less confusing, too (he says greedily).

If you bought SONAR as a new user, you will also receive a year of updates and that includes the bug fixes. If you updated from X3, then you received all the updates between X3 and the latest version (Mix Recall, Control Bar, etc.), and will also receive a year of updates that includes bug fixes.
 
 
Hi Anderton, Thanks for your reply.  I bought Sonar Pro as an upgrade from Sonar Studio X3, so from what you are saying, I will receive a year of bug fixes, upgrades etc. without having to buy Cambridge.  Thanks for clarifying.

It is free to the membership. I'm a little confused by your question. Have read the announcement dealing with the new membership? What "pay for package" are you talking about?
 
 
Hi John, maybe I'm missing something, but I thought the choice was between buying an upgrade outright or subscribing by paying a monthly amount.  That's what I meant by subscribers vs non-subscribers.  It's clear that customers who buy the product license outright will still receive a year of upgrades/fixes.  Thanks.

If you are paying on a monthly basis you should be getting the updates too. Its part of the deal. If you stop paying before you are paid in full Sonar with revert to demo mode. It isn't a subscription its a membership.
 
Think of Sonar 2015 as not being complete until the end of the year. Through out the year on a monthly basis CW will be releasing updates that both fix issues and add new functions and features. Those that have paid the full upfront amount will be getting these updates without having to pay for them. Those that are paying on a monthly plan will also receive them as long as their account is kept up to date. Its really very simple.

I agree, the updates are great as with everything else. Not sure what got fixed under the hood but I worked for 4 hours today on 6 different projects without any issues. There were some glitches prior to this Cambridge update. I still find Plt opens projects a little slower than X3e but I guess I can wait the extra 15 seconds for all the extra refinements in usability. Great job Bakers....now I know I made the right choice sticking with you guys since the DOS days...good 'ole days eh??? ;-)

If someone upgrades from X3 now, do they automatically have everything through the Cambridge release?

Yes, except for the content exclusive to Braintree.

What version should the Anderson collection show in the online account at the store?

1.0.0.13


Thanks scook...

It is what I'm seeing, but at the moment I'm thinking to wait for a cleaned up install fix as Craig has mentioned making such...?

What people object to is that the SFZ files are placed in the Multisamples folder instead of inside a folder within the Multisamples folder. If that doesn't bother you, go ahead and install it.
 
Also one person reported that Dim Pro would crash with these patches at 48 sample buffers but worked with higher buffer values, however another user reported it working fine at 48 samples so take your choice.

Yes, I understand the issue and while not horrible, I'm just thinking to avoid some cleanup work if the fix relocates the sfz's into the correct folder, but leaves removal of the old files to be manually removed... No biggy... But as I don't often use guitar samples (I too am a guitarist and typically prefer to play my real guitars ;-)), I figured I could wait...

Honestly I'm more concerned about the control bar snafu as it is currently a bit of a pain searching for my needed buttons instead of auto-locating them from habit...

Thanks for all your hard work. Both creating your add-ins as well as the constant visibility and participation helping so many via the forum...

I do look forward to checking out these samples...
