Is X2a build 308?  After the update, I expected to see X2a somewhere.  Looking at my "help"/"about sonar" menu it states that my current file revision is 308 and still just says X2 Producer.  I just want to make sure the update happened.


Mine shows X2a build 351.


If yours is Producer I have a problem.  The install seemed smooth with no error messages.


Yes, producer.

X2a Rock solid here! Recorded two songs, One with Dimension Pro and it hung for about 25 seconds then everything works just like it should. I really dig the free Christmas Sounds, Lots of great tones in there!
Thanks Cake!


What are the free Christmas sounds? Do they come with the X2a update?

They still haven't fixed the stolen Keystrokes from U-He plugins when saving presets. Worked in 8.5, upgraded to X2, and suddenly I'm unable to give presets in DIVA any kind of reasonable name. Was really hoping that would have been fixed, or do the Cakewalk staffers just not use DIVA or any of the other U-he synths? Or perhaps they just don't roll their own presets.

I have the problem too, as I use a lot of U-He plugins. Fortunately, however, the U-He plugins store all the presets as files in a presets folder. You can go do the folder and rename the presets there.

The Christmas sounds are a collection of DimPro presets that are available for download from your store account. They are not part of X2a.

Download and install painless. In limited (4 hours) testing no issues. About to go do some serious work. Wish me luck!

Best liked bonus feature: In the ProChannel context menu, images of the PC Module(s) that can be inserted. For mentally deficient old folks like me this is major. LOL

Sorry to read of some of the problems people are having, hope you get them settled.

Yeah, I'm really liking it so far.  In addition to all the good stuff already mentioned, I haven't had a crash in the browser when quickly moving between clips.  Oh, and after accidentally closing the PC and immediately scrolling, I saw that the TI itself scrolled instead!  I don't remember that ever happening before.

Yes, producer.

Pilot error!!!  I kept installing X2 update and not the x2a update.  All is great now, thanks!

  All my IK Multimedia products crash Sonar X2a. If I run in admin mode, I get asked to reauthorise, but my other host (FLstudio) just carries on as usual - no problem with IK plugins. 

  Any advice? - should I just bite the bullet, run in admin mode and reathorise all my IK plugins, and if I do this, will they still work when I run Sonar in normal user mode?  

I also had to reauthorise V-station, but so far these are the only plugins that I've had problems with
