ProChannel PC4K S-Type Expander/Gate module included in Manual. Not in Sonar X2

Hello
 
I know that the PC4K S-Type Expander/Gate module is supposed to be an additional module to Prochannel. However, when reading the manual (RTFM;) you can almost get the impression of this module being a part of Sonar X2 Producer (which I have). I really don't see a need for this product as I have alternatives, but still... I think that they should be clearer about the module being an extension to ProChannel

    And there is a video released with X3 on the subject of ProChannel side-chaining.  See
     
    http://www.cakewalk.com/CakeTV/SONARU.aspx/Go-Deeper
     
    While I guess it doesn't explicitly say the PC4K gate expander is included in the package, this page is to "learn more" about Sonar X3, "This course covers in-depth functionality of a particular feature in SONAR." and nowhere does it say this feature is not actually in SONAR.  I fully expected that module would be in my producer package.
     
    But it does seem you can accomplish mostly the same results using the PC 4K Compressor, which is included.
