New version totally whacked out MMultiAnalyzer used in current projects.
All get reset to the default plus Sonogram window won't open, entire gui turns white
..what a mess..

Does sound bad. I just tested the 64bit VST and VST3 versions in a new SONAR X3e project. Worked OK here.

Checked & it's the VST3 version. No time to futz around, I re-installed 8.0.2, it's working fine again..

Carl, it's most likely a problem specific to your video card. The improvements to 8.03 are minor, so your best bet is to stay on 8.02 for the time being, but disabling GPU acceleration would probably solve your 8.03 problem. It wouldn't hurt to report your problem, though, and be sure to specify your video adapter model.
 
I had experienced symptoms similar to yours when version 8 first came out, and Vojtech reports that he's had a hard time implementing GPU acceleration with my brand of video card (ATI Radeon). So your post made me anxious when I read it - happily, though, 8.03 does not appear to have any issues for me here. I am not, however, running the VST3 version.

bit,
I turned off acceleration in 8.0.2 , no problems with it but I didn't need it so I disabled it to conserve.
VST3 is the problem in 8.0.3, not in 8.0.2.  I'm going to do a restore before I had any Melda plugs installed then only 8.0.3 just to see what happens.

Thanks for your help.

I restored a backup where no Melda plugins were installed then 8.0.3. It seems be to work normally again, no blank guis or frozen screens.. Maybe a registry issue?
As before I could use acceleration but I disabled it in both versions to conserve, here's what I've noticed so far.
8.0.3: Sonogram doesn't function when accelration is disabled using VST3 but does using VST2.
8.0.2: Sonogram functions using both VST3, VST2 & using accelerated or non modes.
Since I had acceleration disabled in both versions only Sonogram in 8.0.2 would work using VST3, which is what I use.
I'll back up this restore so 8.0.2 never existed, hopefully that solved the problem.

Hi carl,
 
When you say you turned off the acceleration to conserve what is it you are trying to conserve? As I understand it (which may be wrong) by having acceleration on it helps conserve CPU by off loading some of the load to the GPU (if supported GPU) This should be a helpful feature when used with supported GPU's.
 
Kind regards,
Rick
