Roll back to X1C

Is there a way to roll back my Sonar X1 from D to C? Did some searching but did not find a clear answer.

Thanks!

Unfortunately Cakewalk doesn't do Roll back.

You'll have to uninstall and start again with your basic installation from disc or download then apply the X1C update. fortunately X1C is a rollup of the smaller quickfixes and X1 a and X1b updates so you only have to do the one patch file which only takes a few minutes.

None of my business but why wouldnt you want the benefits of the fixes provided by X1D - to many to ignore.

You may also find as I have recently that doing a fresh install with one patch after another and not running SONAR till finished provides a bettter installation than an incremental one as each update is released. Just my opinion, but history has shown that once the last and most stable update is provided doing a fresh install provides a smoother SONAR experience.

just think of the various other installations via Windows update and other programs that are done during the time between first installing SONAR and waiting for and then installing each patch as its provided. In X1's case over a year has passed between X1 release and X1D  patch.

Hey, mudgel. That's what I was afraid of. But thanks for the information.

X1D has just been way buggier for me that B or C. It's like it's possessed sometimes. For example, as we speak I'm working on a session made up entirely of Midi tracks. Playback of the session sounds great. I decide to export to audio. I do a "select all". Nothing gets selected. Nothing. I click on any random clip to select it. I then click "select all" again - this time it works. I then export my file to an audio track. Playback becomes an adventure. String parts or brass parts jump all the way up in volume. And not the entire tracks, or even entire clips. Just sections. Maybe even one or two notes. Other parts will disappear altogether. Today I tried again. At the end of the project I have each track fading. For some reason Sonar ignored 1 track's fade automation. All tracks faded - except 1 violin track that just kept blasting. Also delays are unpredictable,  particularly any rhythmic, tempo based delays. They get out of tempo. At first I only noticed it when fast bounce was selected, but now it seems to happen regardless. So - as you can understand - Sonar is kind of becoming useless to me right now. I never noticed any of this with C, so I thought a roll back might solve my problems. I do have a support ticket entered, so perhaps this is something Cake has seen before and can offer a solution.

Thanks for letting me vent!!! I feel better. Still love Sonar, but frustrated at the moment.

What system are you running Sonar on?

Win 7 64bit. Just to test it - I tried the session in both X1 32 bit, as well as X1 64 bit. The problem occurred on both.
