i didn't see VVocal in the list...




I didn't either.  Good catch.  I just took what was there and added Platinum, no new line items.  Will update that ...

The "Loops and One shots" package bundled with X2 and X3 is not bundled with Platinum. This package is the Betascape factory library reorganized into different folders. It is approximately 4GB of samples. I believe the three loop installers bundled with Platinum were integrated into the older SONAR installers for some time.




I must have assumed it was because I had X3 installed as well.  Will remove that "x" from Plat ...

What is the difference between the Para-Q and Parametric EQ? I know the Para-Q is one of the "half-rack" effects inherited from Project 5. The line for the Parametric EQ looks strange. I cannot recall a plug-in ever being discontinued then added back in a later version.



Good question!
 
When I open X3 (32-bit), the plugin manager shows a Para-Q DX from Project5.  C:\Program Files (x86)\Cakewalk\Shared Plugins\p5paraq.dll
 
If I open Platinum (64-bit) the Para-Q is listed as a Cakewalk DX.  C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared Plugins\paraq.dll
 
No sign of a "Parametric EQ" anywhere ...

To be really picky, V-Vocal wasn't a plugin as such - it was part of the core program from 6PE to X2 (or X3, can't remember)

Dropped from X3.  I think that was why you had to install the X2 program to recover that feature.  Not a standalone plugin.  Will make a note that it is a core feature.
 
I guess kind of like loops and one-shots is not really an instrument.  It was a content add-on...

Thanks! I still have a boxed copy of Sonar 1 along with the book size manual it came with. I'll update Mike's spreadsheet and make it available.

I have the boxed version of SONAR 2 (XL), and can share what it came with when in the studio next time.

The new version is up.  Made the suggested corrections and added Sonar 3 - 7.

Good work John, and everyone else who contributed.

I added couple of instruments to Splat that weren't on the list yet, like Ultra Analog and Rapture Session, so I think that's a current Splat instrument list now.
 
I probably need to go back and see what new FX are missing from the Splat side...
