... If there are any plugins that you need from those versions, you can add them later. It is possible to install individual plugins from the installer without installing the main program. ...

Great! But how do you do this?
Is this also possible for SPLAT, i.e. can I install components from X3?

You run the installer and choose Custom installation. You'll be shown a list of components which you can then select and install separately.  
 
Yes, use this method to install components of X1/X2/X3 alongside SPLAT.

Thanks JonD for the fast response!
Oh understood! This goes the common way with the Custom installation, I just wondered about "...without installing the main program...". But I'll try!

The Advanced Install option does not install the main program unless it is selected from the component list. The component list is presented after selecting the Advanced Install option. The only "plug-in" requiring SONAR actually be installed in V-Vocal. There is an option in the drop down above the component list to perform a "Minimal Installation." This option should be selected if V-Vocal is needed but the full SONAR installation is not.

I am impressed! Another point where CW is in the vanguard of the DAWs. I have never seen such a detailed installer. And I could really install without the program. Thank you a lot scook and JonD!

My goodness, my memory is really skiddaliding away, I don't even remember posting that post from a few months ago. Thanks so much Scook for all the help! My mom just passed from Alzeimers, I guess it's on the way for me too. I have so much music to record so I'm really pressing to it and thankful for all the expert time and help!

Don't worry about it, Robby, it happens to me too. I'm always forgetting I posted the same or similar thing earlier. It's an internet thing, not Alzheimer's.
