I am on Sonar X1d.  Can I trust that if I just click through the install process that everything will work OK?
 
I have some concerns about my virtual instruments working.

Konrad, didn't you have trouble last time with EZD2 not working? Was that you? (You changed your avatar?)
 
I installed through CCC on my Win8 pc (not my music PC) this morning and everything is working as expected. Went very smooth. I didn't install anything else other than X4 because I already had X3e Dim Pro, Rapture, and all other instruments installed already. I fired up a project that I had with Dim Pro, Rapture, Louge Liz, Session D3, and all worked as expected.
 
 

kudos to Cakewalk and Cleverbridge support for resolving my issue in under 48 hrs. I do have to say however, that giving me a US phone number to call from Australia, instead of an email, might have been Cakewalk simplifying things a little too much. 

Well I sent a PM to Andrew 11 hours ago explaining the problems and I've not had an answer yet.
 
Fingers crossed I'll hear something today.

Anyone from Cake watching this thread?

Sorry, someone may have already answered this... but looking at the options, I think going to Professional would be best for me. But, am I allowed to upgrade to that version from Producer X3? Its seems (and correct me if I'm wrong) the only additional feature on Premuim is Vocal Sync?
 
Thanks

Be aware that you'll lose the ProChannel flyout Quad EQ and analyser if you go with Professional (which is the equivalent of X3 Studio).
 

there's a drum replacer coming

Well 3 AD Packs at 90 euros each and the upgrade to AD2... is worth the $149 tag... but as far as features are concerned im not too impressed.
 
I really think they should retire some of the olddr vsts part of the bundle and invest in more new libraries. That's whats lets it down...

And every time you reinstall your computer, you have to install ALL versions to not forget some "old" plug-in which is not available in the latest. There are already several such plug-ins like V-Vocal, I do not think that is good idea.
