This is what I see too! LOW Left! Restart project helps....
Delete the Old Bus and make new BUS seem to fix the issue?
 
PC2A Leveler disappears too sometimes? They are there but blank GUI, still there and effect the track!
 
This two PC2A Leveler and Console Emulator are the only GUI's that doesn't work 100% so it must be a Cakewalk issue. 
 
I use NVIDIA

I have asked someone from TS to get in touch with you and troubleshoot it. 

Have you already tried doing a full rescan of all your plugins?
My hunch is that its most likely a VST ID collision with something else on your system.
Could you please check if you have any other VST plugins in your path called "Console ...."? If you do find any do an experiment and try renaming those dll's to something different like XX-Console...

One more thing. Make sure that you haven't disabled short file names in windows. SONAR requires that capability. BTW please don't add the internal path to that folder explicitly - it won't help and could potentially compound your problem. Also make sure that you do not have the same plugins in multiple places since it leads to duplicates and potential collisions if they have the same file names. 


This happen without any other VST PLUGINS in the BUS! They are there but blank GUI, still there and effect the track! Press on TUBE EMU on off kick the GUI of the Console EMU up again....? Delete the Old Bus and make new BUS seem to fix the issue?

Try what I mentioned above, rename  "Console Emulator Channel_64.dll" to "Console Channel_64.dll" seems to have fixed for me, for the time being.

Hey Rasure, thanks.  Your fix worked for me as well.

Yes apparently there is a name conflict of some sorts happening on your systems. So renaming it resolves this. Are the supplied template files loading properly for you after this change? 
Please update your default PC modules on the track and bus. You can do this by inserting a new track and bus and from the PC right click and choose "set modules as default ...". This will also update the global defaults appropriately.

Thanks Noel :-)

Templates do load ok after this...

Yeah if you rename the plugin it will try and do a best match with the CLSID - hence you get the dialog. Once you save your project however you will no longer see that on next load. We have plans to enhance the plugin identification logic to avoid such issues in a future update, but for now you should be good to go. Sorry for the inconvenience.
