Tips on Reloading Sonar 8.5 onto new Computer

I'm want to be able to keep my current settings on compressors and equalizers when I reload Sonar 8.5 onto a new computer.  Any tips or suggestions on how best to do this, transfer files and avoid making big mistakes when the new computer is delivered?

    If your talking about FX settings that are in your projects, then there is no need to worry, as the project will open with all its effects set correctly, as its last save..

    If you have ever saved any project templates, track templates, etc., you should back them up so that you can copy them to the relevant folders after installing Sonar.  Look under Options>Global>Folders for their current locations.

    Check out this migration guide for bringing over all of your presets, plug-in menu layouts keybindings and colors.

    As CJ pointed out all of your settings within a project will persist with the project files themselves.

    CJ is correct.

    But: the settings will not be named presets.

    This may not matter for you. 

    I saved all the presets and copied them to the 64 partition and then imported. Made me smile instead of frown.
