Thanks for the answer Lance. No less frustrating to me as I'm forced to use the Kingston version as that was the last version this feature worked correctly in. I hope ripple delete works as simply as delete hole does in the Kingston version.
In the meantime, could you all please just fix delete hole so it will include all tracks selected, whether there is audio/midi data in them or not?
Anyway, thanks for letting me vent. Arrgh.

Why do you force Installation of the application on c:\program files\cakewalk (at last for german users) now ? I had it on d:\musik until now and now it forces c:\program files I made another thread, but I guess it is better here as direct bug-Feedback (or is it a new feature ;-) ) Great App! @bluesplayer - good to see another Person that does not like this new Feature :-)

By default the app installs there but it is possible to install elsewhere. If you are using Command Center you'll want to turn On the "Verbose" switch in the settings page. This will allow you to configure the install location.

Are you installing this as an update or a fresh install? When running an update to the app the install location cannot be changed. This field is only available on a clean install of the app. If you would like to change your install location you will need to uninstall the app from the current location and then install again to a different location.

Sorry, that does not work. The verbose switch is set (was already) but with this Version it is not possible to change the Installation path for the app. I had it already at D:\Musik\... the versions before. Tried with/without CCC as well as short/advanced Installation. This function is broken with this Version. And there are several People with exact this issue. I am sure we are not to stupid to make a simple Installation correct. Trouble ticket has been made. Thread with this bug exists Thank you.

We make not a fresh install. We upgrade. It is correct you should not have to Change the app-Directory. Problem is: This (and previous) versions substitutes the current install location with c:\program files\... instead of using the already existing current install location we had before. This Version removes the possibility to correct this behaviour with removing the Option to determine the app install Directory. http://forum.cakewalk.com/Sonar-Platinum-custom-install-directory-broken-in-recent-versions-m3453872.aspx

NO this is an UPDATE (I'll say it again - update) it's an update to my EXISTING install which now currently sits at version 22.6.0.26, and the month before that it was v22.5.0.45C, and the month before that 22.5.0.43, and so on.) So 22.7.0.4 WOULD have been about the 17th or so update, by me, since SPLAT came out ~18 months ago, and this is the FIRST one of those SPLAT updates that does NOT ask, or allow, for where to install the base program. Are you implying CW tech support cannot re-create this? Or is that just a rhetorical., like "did you remember to turn on the PC?" Like I said, elsewhere, takes what about 1-2 minutes to physically verify that that option, where to install, is gone. Thanks

Lance - Yes, I can confirm Bluesplayer's comment - the problem is for an UPDATE. I would appreciate if you can test installing 22.07 over, well basically any previous version of SPLAT already installed to a non-default location, using the Advanced Option and looking at what the dialog is telling you through the process; rather than assume we don't know what we are looking at.
Reading between the lines, as to when the select path option is available or not, as a workaround I have uninstalled Sonar Platinum (just using Control Panel -> Programs & Features) then reinstalled. (not the whole Clean Install procedure.) This did give me the option to choose D: and appears to have worked ok. I'm a little nervous if this is going to occur every time we need to update, that things might get broken or settings lost. I'm now on 22.07.
I still think there is a bug in the update routine of the installer, this clearly should not be the default behaviour of updating in place; and at the very least the install utility could be rolled back.

I noticed that auto crossfade with slip editing doesn't work across multiple tracks with this new update. For example, I record multi tracked drums (which are grouped). I cut out a section and move it somewhere, and then do a slip edit (with all of the clips selected) to fill the gap and create an auto crossfade across all of the tracks and it will only auto crossfade across the one I am doing the slip edit with. It will animate the crossfades across the rest of the tracks but as soon as I unclick, the crossfade only exists on the track used to do the edit. This makes this new update unusable for me and I'm sure a number of other users. Btw, I would have reported this problem through the problem reporter but, 1. I never hear back from anyone or see any results from doing that 2. I can't even find the problem reporter link on the site anymore Thanks in advance.

Is there any particular reason that the questions regarding SPlat update file drive choice have not been answered by Cakewalk reps? This issue constitutes a fundamental change in how Sonar is updated on our computers. An answer would be nice.

While they need time to verify, and reality check - they have other issues/items to troubleshoot, work-on, and verify. However, this one is probably the easiest one CW tech's could ever hope to to get to "verify" and report back - they could have the office "gofer," any administrative assistant, or sales staff member check it out to verify and report back:
1) "yep it's an repeatable/verified issue" or
2) "nope, you folks out there are all smoking non-tobacco products"
To be truly fair, please note I did not say get back to use with a correction, change, or SW fix: THAT in reality DOES TAKE TIME.
But at this point, assuming CW agrees it is truly their "issue," I suspect CW now will not address until end of Aug release so Jul release "goodies" (any unique pieces and parts) may just lost to us (as a Lifetime'er - that would not make me happy). I doubt each new release "includes" any, let alone all, of the previous releases "stuff."

Hey guys,
I spent some time looking into this installer issue. Turns out it's two separate problems:
1) As of this release (2016.07), we are not displaying the install directory page in our installer if you already have SONAR installed. This happened as a result of our installer tool changing a default behavior in their most recent update. We were able to address this quickly and it will be rectified in 2016.08.
2) We are not adopting the previous install location in the installer. If you install to a custom location we should be recalling that location for subsequent installs of the same product or updates. Today, it appears we always pre-populate the path with the default recommendation. Apparently this has been happening since X3. I have a plan to resolve this as well, but it won't happen for 2016.08, since it requires a bit of work and we're already really close to releasing. So please expect this change in 2016.09.
Thanks for the reports and for your patience as we take care of the issues.

If I turn all 3 LPMB off in console view then platinum instantly RUNS Responsive again the way it should almost instantaneous playback ,midi ,right clicking etc etc .
