Sonar Platnum and Eucon

Hi bakers , simple but dead serious question

Since the vs 700 support is dead , since you guyz didn t provided a solution , for exemple with Tascam , is there a way you seriously update the eucon plugin to be compatible to last versions ?

I remeber that it was working pretty welll

I m testing as i write and it s all messed up

So please take care of you costumers , treat them like professionals , not kids in bed rooms ....

I guess you didn't read my Friday's Tip of the Week about how to get the Artist Series working with SONAR. I don't know if you've downloaded the latest Eucon software or firmware, either.
 
The problem has nothing to do with SONAR. Just search "Artist Series doorstop" and you'll find plenty of references to Pro Tools and Mac not working, as well as significant user frustration.
 
SONAR's Eucon plug-in works just fine. I currently am running an Artist Series (and a really old one, it was when Euphonix made it) and it works perfectly. If you think something has to be fixed in SONAR to make it work, you'll never get it to work because that's not where the problem is.
 
Short form: Download the latest Eucon software, update the firmware, and after you open SONAR, restart all Eucon applications from the System Tray. If you still have issues, read my detailed instructions. 
 
(Do note that it is Pro Tools specific and has become more so over the years. Don't expect to adjust SONAR's EQ, it's looking for the Pro Tools module.)
 
Zo
So please take care of you costumers , treat them like professionals , not kids in bed rooms ....

 
A kid in a bedroom would probably have just asked if anyone had any tips on how to get the Artist Series working with SONAR.

P.S. And even though it would be up to Roland, not Cakewalk, to provide a solution for the VS-700 to work with Windows 10, there is a solution that's mentioned in the same Tip of the Week. The only reason I'm not using the VS-700 is because it's big, and I can't fit a big touch screen AND a big controller on my desk. But I can fit a big touch screen and two Artist Series controllers.
P.P.S. If you have a really old controller, you will not be able to update to the latest Eucon software. You will need to update it to the first version after your software that installs the complete software, then update that. As far as I can tell, updates can only be applied to one or two versions back. This is also not a SONAR issue.

@Anderton

Thks for the answer , no i didn t read your friday tip on that , yes i have the last update , i tried also on the ipad if the mobile version worked since my plan is to get the ipad + hardware controller ... i don t have meters moving , no control other inserts ect ... just transport , tracks display and pan control ...and yep the last time i tried the hardware , it was the same as you , so are you 100 % sur it s not the sonar plugin version that is no more up to what the app allows to do in 2016 ... ? Because saying that it work with an old system doesn t prove a thing , this was exactly what i stated when i said "it used to work " (x1 + euphonix version)

So i will investigate the thing , witch doesn t adress the fact that cakewalk should definitly offer a solution or work with other brands ( like the did with console 1) to provide a solution ...

And i still love the vs 700 but i m facing the exact same problem as you ...need a more compact thing ...

First stop your bul**** around all my post ...here , in gearsluts ....all over the place
Second , when i say kids in bedroom , i was refering to the fact that while Sonar platnum is fully qualified for a real Studio work , they do not offer a solid solution as a control surface ,i have nothing against people in their bedroom since i m also one of them , but there s also another market and pros that would love to use sonar as it supposed to be , to its full potential .... you can t claim you re doind one of the best daw around , witch a i think it is and not offering either , a serious syrface solution or 3rd party serious support..

@Anderton

I just saw your post on the tip to make it work ...my issue is not communication , i v read your tips and i was doing exactly what you explain ( yes even the start up disabling and manual start , since i start manually on those kind of boot ware , on demand)

My issue is that nothing is working like it used to , no metering display ect .... i have a more recent version than yours ...maybe this is it , it asked me to upadte it because protools version ) but i doubt ...

So if you have time could try with an ipad , it will tell us if its hardware or app dependent

There was no Surface API changes for Sonar, I mean plug-in which worked with X1 does absolutely the same in Platinum. But there could be some API changes in Eucon and so Sonar plug-in is not speaking the same language as newer consoles. Since EUCON protocol and Sonar plug-in are "closed source", only developers (EUCON / Cakewalk) can check that.

so are you 100 % sur it s not the sonar plugin version that is no more up to what the app allows to do in 2016 ... ? 



The meters stopped working with 3.5 and I haven't figured out how to get them back yet, it was an option in the previous version. For all I know, Avid removed that feature...I simply haven't had that much time to play with the new software.
 
Bear in mind the 3.5 software only came out about a month ago and much of it is Pro Tools-specific. Cakewalk is not going to drop everything and re-design, for example, the Pro Channel EQ to make it look like the EQ in Pro Tools so Eucon can talk to it.
 
Avid recognizes that the world consists of more than Pro Tools. So IIRC the Artist Series will do HUI and Mackie control; that's what the virtual MIDI ports are for. As a result, I'd expect that non-Pro Tools programs like SONAR would be compatible only on the level of a Mackie control or HUI. However, by using the Eucon plug-in, SONAR can take advantage of some of the Pro Tools-specific features. Note that my tip also mentioned what did, and didn't work, with Eucon.

Thks  , yep i saw the list you mentionned ..and even inserts sends ect doesn't work ...strange , but you might be right ...
 
Is it working (V3.5) on the euphonix /avId artist  ? i mean at least Meters ect ... basically the only compact (serous) options we have are Avid series or Slate Raven witch will handle the monitor side also ...

It depends upon multiple factors. I really don't have the time to list all of the possible issues involving third party relationships among manufacturers. It would take pages, I still need to finish my Friday's Tip of the Week, and it's my birthday so I'd rather not spend my evening on this.
 
If you would do a little research instead of immediately thinking the answer is to come into this forum and insult Cakewalk, you would learn something. Here is Avid's compatibility chart as of March 31, 2015. Here is the one from October 26, 2016. This is not classified information, it is available to anyone. C'est triste, bien sur, mais c'est la vie.
 
After reviewing these charts, draw your own conclusions...which will hopefully be closer to the truth than the one that opened this thread

Happy birthday so ....

I really feel there no insults at all in my post , if being rude kinda , or saying what i feel with no insults is felt like insults, sorry ....
I really do feel bakers don t care that mutch about pro control surfaces solution ( boutique or 3rd party) .... i wish they gave indicators that i m wrong , i hope i m wrong in fact ... not here to push my arguments or flatening my ego ....

All the link you gave i already had those infos ... this exactly what i was saying , the last update is a must for protools user , doesn t work well with sonar , i didn t said it was cakewalk fault , but are they actualy involved in working with avid and other 3rd party to enhance integrations , or is it secondary verus core app dev ...

Thks again MR Anderton for taking the time

In October Cakewalk introduced bi-directional control with Softube's Console 1, which is one of the most advanced control surfaces in the industry (and Cakewalk is one of only two companies to offer this level of support at present). So either they do care, or they have a very strange way of showing they don't care... 
 
What seemed insulting was saying that Cakewalk doesn't treat their customers like professionals. SONAR offers DSD import, plug-in load balancing, Mix Recall, VocalSync, linear-phase multiband compression as well as linear-phase EQ with mid/side options, tempo detection, the first non-Melodyne ARA region FX (Drum Replacer), upsampling, VST3 input bus support, etc.
 
Remember there are also people who say Cakewalk should be more like FL Studio and pay attention to people who make beats. You guys can get together over drinks sometime, and have an argument

All True , for sure , it is also true that you can't call yourself an industrie beast if you don't offer at least what a professional needs at a basic level !! I know you 're in the same matrix as me when it comes to workflow / integration  specialy as the daws offers more and more powerfull tools ...
 
The ability for a professional to not rationalise certain tasks is crucial at a very deep brain level to be on the main task  : "ART"  .... the control surface is in my book number one and the success of console One show's it (i must point out that this concept was born a day while i had the softube beast Niklas on the phone when i was explaining him what concept i proposed to Focusrite / Novation automap (Eric at that time) for a SSL based control surface , they didn't paid attention and softube made it  !!! thumbs up for that !!my argument was that everybody has at least one SSL CS type plugin (Waves , UAD , Daws, Deuende ect ) , they went their own plugin route , i was more one a more general surface , where you point the dll of the plugin to control and done ...) anyway , i was hoping that Tascam and cakewalk would do some , but with time , my hopes are gone ...
 
Yep Cakewalk developed and offers a  lot of great additions for real as you pointed out, but a Ferrari beast engine without a good control / direction is nothing ... you must hear in my words frustration , not hate at all ... i know the bakers are beast when it come to dev ....
 
I'm at this time making a preset with AZ controler for maschine studio , it's a beast , but still i need real faders and metering feedbacks ..Ect ....(console with fader and a general mackie control is the next thing i'm gonna lobby to them)
 
So to go back a little on the main issue , to tell you the truth , everytime a product supports fully sonar , i'm happily surprised , it says a lot ...sure 3rd party have the main responsability but i feel maybe a little passivity from the cake side  , for sure they cannot be on all "fronts" but DAW concept is really deeply linked with the notion of control , our entire job is linked to the concept of interfacing with something digital ...
 
 
I will end with the fact that i also think a superbe control surface made by the brand itself with the maximum of 3rd party daws compability will push more and more sales ....and credibility .... if i didn't teached with sonar at the SAE , none of the students would have heard of it , because it's lack of presence around pro studio's , why ? marketing , and  solid studio level integration solutions , sad cause the software itself kills a  lot of so called industry leaders ....
 
Maybe time to make my own control surface ....finally instead of counting on others ....;)

The problem is that Cakewalk and Roland tried that already, and it was a commercial epic fail. When I do DAW seminars I always ask how many people use a control surface. Only a few hands go up, and even then, a lot of times it's more of a "scratchpad" like a Korg Nanocontrol.
 
The hard reality is that a proper piece of hardware is expensive to develop, and therefore difficult for people to afford. I think the best that owners of any DAW will be able to be expect in the future is touch control surfaces. The only exception will be Ableton Live, because you really can't use it as intended without a hardware controller - as I've always said, DAWs are studios disguised as software, while Live is a musical instrument disguised as software. Meanwhile, I do think the Softube integration is very good for those who want to go the hardware route.

yes, but why did it fail? we all know the cakewalk/roland thing didn't last very long, but know nothing of the private detail as to why? i'd hope the cakewalk/gibson thing is a happier thing!! and surely tascam is an obvious opportunity, a la presonus' hw/sw thing, ableton's, etc
/fwiw
