You'll find Modules Manager in C:\Program Files\IK Multimedia\T-RackS 6. Run it and you'll likely be delighted to see what it does. Background/tl/dr: I had read the blurb about T-RackS 6 before I Bumble Hundled it that mentioned that they had added the ability to only install the modules you own (or wish to install). The spamming of unowned modules is a longtime complaint about T-RackS. By default, they dump every module in the line into your VST3 folder, which causes them to show up in your hosts' plug-in lists with no indication as to whether you own licenses for them or not. So two types of clutter, both hard drive and visual. In the past I solved this by creating a "bullpen" folder where I would move unowned modules until such time as I acquired licenses for them. I expected this ability to be part of the installer or built into IK Product Manager, but it's not. Weeks later I was doing some cleaning work on my C drive and poked around in IK Multimedia's programs folder. That's when I discovered Modules Manager. Modules Manager allows you to see what licenses you own and choose to only install those modules. IK seem to be still into the idea that you (or they) want to dump the unlicensed modules onto your system, and some of the design of this tool reflects that. So you need to be careful when using it. When you first run it, select "Show All" in the left column. Then you can look over on the right and see the ones you own and the ones that are only available as trials. Toggle the button as appropriate for each one. Then click "Apply Changes" down at the bottom. This will remove unwanted modules. What to watch out for is that the next time you run it you may get a message about how your installation doesn't match your preferences. Do NOT click yes to this dialog. If you do, it will reinstall all of the modules you previously excluded. It's a useful tool, you just have to keep an eye on it.

We're excited to have you preview some new features before they go into production - please check out these headliners slated for our next release: Signal Probe Theme Editor Download links 2025.12 Early Access: Download full installer 2025.11 Stable Release (rollback): Download full Installer Membership required Please note that Signal Probe and Theme Editor are available only through BandLab Membership. Signal Probe Signal Probe is a specialized diagnostic tool designed for real-time analysis of audio signals in Cakewalk Sonar, allowing you to analyze signals before or after processing by any track, bus, or plugin. Signal Prove provides three analysis visualizations: Spectrum Analyzer Phase Scope Level Meters Usage Note: Signal Probe is not a plugin. You can access it as follows: For plugins: Click the new "analysis"on any plugin's toolbar. For tracks: Click on the new "analysis" button located on console strips, just above the meter. Toggle the PRE/POST/BOTH switch to instantly compare the signal entering the plugin versus the signal exiting it. Note that you can choose from any combination of analysis modules (spectrum analyzer, phase meter, level meters) to inspect the signal at the tap point, using the Pre, Post, or Both (visualize pre and post signals overlaid). Accessing Signal Probe from the plugin toolbar: Accessing Signal Probe from the console strip: Accessing Signal Probe from the Pro Channel: Note: For plugins, multiple signal probe windows may be opened. For tracks or buses, only a single probe window may be open at a time which is contextual to the track/bus. Signal probe for instruments only allows Post monitoring since there is no input. Color Theme Editor Theme Editor is designed to streamline the color editing process by providing control over the application's entire color theme by adjusting a few core palette colors. Sweeping color changes can be made with just a few adjustments to a small set of core palette colors. To access Theme Editor, go to Preferences > Colors and click Edit. This action will hide the Preferences dialog and display the Theme Editor. When you close the Theme Editor, the Preferences dialog will automatically return. Membership Required The Theme Editor will be available to users with BandLab Membership. Things You Can Try Checkout the included color schemes - they will appear slightly different from those in the current production build, but they should also look better (barring a handful of known color assignment issues we're still working on). Create and save your own custom color schemes. Be on the lookout for UI elements that don't update as you expect, or become hard to see due to low color contrast. DISCLAIMERS The color theming system is nearing complete, but we're still wrapping up loose ends. The default themes included with this release should be considered experimental and will change before the final release. Please be aware or the following: Theme Editor UI is subject to change before we roll it into a stable release. Theme persistence may break during the course of feature preview, but don't worry - themes are very easy to recreate. The feature is not finished and may contain incomplete functionality. Known Issues Some UI elements don't follow theme colors as expected, especially using light-colored themes. Theme Editor Undo and Redo operations are limited in range and may yield unexpected results. 1080p displays may not render some colors properly. Please leave feedback if you using a 1080p display and observe unexpected color rendering. Editor Layout The editor is divided into two main sections: Palette and Overrides. Currently, the core palette is derived from the Dark Theme (our only available base theme in this build). 1. Theme Palette (Core Colors) This section contains the 10 fundamental colors that dictate the entire application's aesthetic. Adjusting one of these colors will propagate across most of the UI. The colors are arranged in five vertical pairs, representing the background and foreground colors for key hierarchical surfaces: Surface 1: Primary application surface, including app title bar, main menu, and overall application background. Surface 2: Primary framing elements, including main structural borders, menus, and top-level toolbars. Surface 3: Secondary toolbar controls and general panels. Surface 4: Tertiary panel displays and view content (e.g., project data display areas). Accent: A highlight color used to draw attention to important information, alerts, or selected items. 2. Overrides This section allows you to adjust specific component color IDs (e.g. Control Bar Background). If you adjust an Override color, you are deliberately deviating from the core palette color normally assigned to it, allowing for granular control. Color Swatch Interactions Click: Opens a Color Editor for precise adjustments. Sonar’s UI will update in real-time. Double-click: Highlight the corollary UI in the application, helping you locate the affected components. Copy/Paste: Color values can be copied from one swatch and pasted onto another. Swap: Exchange color assignments between foreground and background colors. Reset: A small reset button (circular arrow icon) appears when a swatch's value deviates. Clicking it restores the original color. Menu Operations New, Open..., Save, Save As...: Standard file management User themes are saved to %AppData%\Cakewalk\Sonar\Themes Revert: Resets ALL custom color adjustments (Palette and Overrides) back to their original Dark theme defaults. Options: Only one option thus far, Show button backgrounds, toggles the visual state of buttons in the application UI.

A new color theming feature allows you to customize your workspace color palette. Watch for an Early Access invitation in the coming weeks! We’re also bringing Cakewalk Assist over to Next. This is just the beginning - expect more capabilities as Assist expands its assistive expertise in 2026. Cakewalk Next Maintenance & Performance ICYMI, a recent maintenance release delivered crucial performance boosts under the hood, significantly reducing UI rendering overhead, making the UI feel snappier and more responsive across the board. Coming Soon: Piano Roll Overhaul We are most excited about major updates to MIDI editing. This release will bring improved tools, streamlined editing, and sweeping under-the-hood improvements to deliver a world-class workflow focused on speed and precision in the Piano Roll view. Watch for an Early Access invitation soon! Plugins TH-U Cakewalk Edition Last month, in collaboration with our friends at Overloud, we released TH-U Cakewalk Edition.

The only difference between a Simple Instrument Track and a Split Instrument Track is that the Simple Instrument track is shown as one track in the UI. A Simple Instrument Track is in fact still two tracks, it's just that in the Track View, the header part shows the audio track, and the clips view shows the midi track. The reason they're called "Simple" instrument tracks, is that they're generally created with a stereo only output, and the MIDI track part is sent to the synth on all MIDI channels. That, and the fact they only use up one track space in the UI. Up until the introduction of Per-Output Instrument Tracks, using split instrument tracks was the only way to properly leverage multi-timbral synths. Now you can use either for multi-timbral synths - it's really down to preference, and whatever you're used to in your workflow. As a rule, we try our best not to introduce anything that would require users to change their existing workflow - and obviously there's the backwards compatibility thing with older projects, so both options still exist. FYI: Per-output instrument tracks are really just Simple Instrument Tracks where: 1. The synth is set to have more then one stereo output 2. The audio track is set to receive audio from the synth on a specific audio output 3. The MIDI track is set to output on a specific MIDI channel. ... and those audio output channels / MIDI output channels are incremented each time you "append" a new per-output track for that synth.

Hi all - please use this topic to post feedback specific to the Sonar 2025.11 release. Release-specific feedback is valuable to us, and consolidating it in a single topic is extremely helpful. We request that discussion in this thread be restricted to issues directly concerning this release, to make it easier for us to assist users. For other topics, kindly use the feature request section or create new posts. Off topic messages will be deleted. Thanks in advance!

Hello to all my Sonar/CW friends! Circumstances have taken most of my personal internet time this past year, but I had to give up something to keep my musical hobbies alive. Being a caregiver is a 24/7 job though I'm happy to have this opportunity to do so. I still have managed to create some music, and this production will be one of my last done in Sonar so I want to share this with all of you who have helped and taught me so much over the last 12 years or so. I wouldn't have gotten this far without you. This song is called "Créme de la Créme" and is about the sunrise and sunset of a relationship (I've had a few). It can be found here: I look forward to hearing from you, and all comments and critiques are welcome, as nothing is set in stone. Lynn

Opinions are like A##holes, everyone has one, thinks they're entitled to proclaim it to the masses, and most of them stink thanks to YT. As an over-educated and practicing Electrical Engineer for over 40 years, I'll state these facts, which obviously only apply to the accurately emulated analog modeling algorithms, most of which one has to pay real money for: Beyond the EQ curve or compression ratio are factors that are captured from the analog circuitry that are meant to emulate things like Intermodulation distortion, Total Harmonic distortion, slew rate, hysteresis, and transformer ringing, among other stuff that gives a distinct difference (to well trained ears) between, for example, a Dbx 160x and a genuine Teletronix LA2. They actually sound different if done correctly as a plug-in, as they do in the hardware version. Does the "average" wannabe musician/recordist/content creator know the difference? No. Therefore, it matters to a very slim minority of modern engineers.
