DNnX Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Title says all. It shows black GUI. Sound is OK. It works correctly in Cakewalk by BandLab, so it shouldn't be my installation issue. BTW, I can also report that V-Vocal, Cyclone, TTS-1, GrooveSynth are working as expected in the Sonar. Long live DX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeringAmps Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 I realize this is not exactly what you are seeing, but... When I run through the module selections in the Pro Channel all the VKFX (with the exception of VKFX Amp) are black until I cursor over them. Style Dial and FX Chain as well. Once inserted into Pro Channel they are fine. Psyn II being black when inserted, well "that's a horse of a different color" (ouch) Have you reported this in the menu: Help>Report a problem? t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 @DNnX Is this in Cakewalk Sonar or CbB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeringAmps Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 @Wookiee In Sonar for me, and I have used the Problem Reporter. In reviewing DNxX's post I believe its Sonar for him as well. 5 hours ago, DNnX said: It works correctly in Cakewalk by BandLab t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjoens Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 RXP (32 bit) opens in 64 bit new Sonar, CbB, and SPlat but the Groove Browser is empty. Groove Browser works in all 32 bit Sonars and 64 bit X1-X3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xoo Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Works fine here in Sonar: Ditto Groove Broswer working OK on RXP. Likely to be a registry key permission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Cakewalk Sonar correctly picks up the presence of PSYN II, but fails to properly display the PSYN II's UI, it seems like a bug to me. If Cakewalk Sonar correctly displays the other legacy instruments, it seems to me it should also display PSYN IIs UI correctly. UPDATE (2024-03-27): See Canopus' suggestion: 19 hours ago, Canopus said: The solution to get Psyn II to display in Sonar is to disable Enhanced Display Scaling in Edit > Preferences > Customization > Display | Enhanced Display Scaling (requires restart).

If Cakewalk Sonar correctly displays the other legacy instruments, it seems to me it should also display PSYN IIs UI correctly. you might have realized that I was simply verifying what the OP stated. That being said, I think it's fair to say that if something has worked continuously in Cakewalk/SONAR and suddenly no longer works in Cakewalk Sonar, it might be of interest for the developers to know that PSYN II didn't make the transition into Sonar. I made no assumptions about the cause; I made no assumptions about possible remedies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwal³ Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 blimey, gosh, sorry and furry muff, i picked up on the "legacy instruments" comment which i took as grouping them all together: "if one/others work/s so should the others": 32 minutes ago, User 905133 said: If Cakewalk Sonar correctly displays the other legacy instruments, it seems to me it should also display PSYN IIs UI correctly. personally i don't think they're a priority for the devs as they probably have a fixed thing and can't change that code, otherwise why not make vst versions? (sell them to everyone else then, make some money) tbf there's maybe some change to the dx interaction with windows that hasn't been addressed (or the gui images are in the wrong place security-wise) dunno, just joining in with the speculation 🤷♀️ just because some legacy stuff still works doesn't mean it all will, maybe why it's/they're not included with the later/more recent releases 🤷♀️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The solution to get Psyn II to display in Sonar is to disable Enhanced Display Scaling in Edit > Preferences > Customization > Display | Enhanced Display Scaling (requires restart). I’ve seen other display issues that can be resolved by not having this option enabled, but that’s a discussion for the Beta forum. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong, but I believe it has something to with plugins that support GUI resizing. Some plugins, particularly old ones don't resize. Probably the man to ask would be @Ben Staton.
