Try the 1920 X 1200 16x10 monitor.  More vertical space!

Or can play it from the Name That Tune perspective... "I can mix that song with 1 million pixels!"

I'm discovering the joys of Portrait mode for one of my monitors.

You can download the files and install them off line anywhere you want as far as I can tell. You don't need to use CCC.
 
I have a 128 GB SSD on my laptop and it's not been a problem. I have both Home Studio and SPlat with a lot of other stuff installed and I'm at 66 GB. I even have a couple of Sample libraries. I just keep it cleaned out of anything I don't need and all files are backed up to an External drive. The big hog is the CCC download folder. Copy everything to an external and delete the files afterwards. There 20 GB alone.

I'm not liking that you have to 'work around' command center but I appreciate the regedit workaround.  I don't think I want to do that yet, but may consider it.
 
Thanks so much for the scaling info.  That, at least, solves one of my gripes.
 
Thanks guys.  It's much appreciated.
 
Peace,

Another option is to link the directory of your choosing.
 
I am copying scook's response to my question about this also found here:

Yes, I got a PM about it so I will post my reply with the steps here.
 
The name of the new location could be any valid path. In this example I am assuming the default location of "C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads" and a new location of "D:\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads"
FYI, ProgramData is a hidden directory.
1. Create the new location "D:\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads"
2. Move the contents from "C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads" to "D:\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads"
3. Delete "C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads"
4. run cmd.exe as administrator
5. type mklink /j "C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads" "D:\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads"

 
Hope this helps.

I like the directory link solution and will use that.
 
OK, Thanks guys.  Both my questions have been solved.  This forum really is superb.  It's great to see the Sonar community is still strong!
