@mefodia please check if you have access to free loops when you sign in to the BandLab Studio web application. You should sign with the same user id that you are using with Sonar.

Right, if the plug-in is bypassed, the pdc is eliminated once you restart playback.

If you have poor internet and are unable to sign on as a result of that use offline activation to sign in by creating the activation response from a different computer that has a good internet connection.

Is this project specific? Not seeing anything abnormal here. Post a link to the specific project file since that's the only way to check it. Also try this on other project files and also try David Baay's suggestion of pre-creating the target track and check if that resolves it.

Then you need to attach or send the specific project that has the issue. Otherwise there is no way to diagnose further.

Not seeing any of these symptoms here. Are you running the latest build 36?

@Adam A test build was sent to you via PM yesterday that should resolve a potential crash. Please test it ASAP and report back. Regarding lag we're not sure why you are seeing that since there have been no changes in MIDI groove clip rendering itself. However, the crash scenario could have exposed some side effects so please report back if it's working correctly with the build. Otherwise send a simple representative test project that exhibits the lag.

Its a known issue that BReverb has problems rendering some automation with fast bounce. You could possibly get around it by doing a realtime bounce or by using an Aux track to record the rendered output.

Bounce to track is working as expected here with virtual instruments in build 36. Without more specifics its hard to follow what you are attempting to do. What is "drum machine"? There are no changes to bounce as such in this release.

This sound like a bug in BReverb rather than a Sonar issue. Try a different reverb.

Note that while saving from a crash dialog generally works, it's not guaranteed, since if the app state is already compromised, it may crash while saving itself.

Spacial panner or the old (badly named) sonitus surround are unrelated to surround sound. You can use either on a surround bus if you so choose using surround bridge.

Please read "Why do I sometimes get an Application Expired message?" in this FAQ.

The message is telling you that the current build you are running has been superseded by another build that has important fixes. As Jon mentioned, we updated the build on Friday due to a new version, due to a problem that could potentially cause data loss. Updating to build 36 should work fine. Please check your internet connection/reboot PC etc. It's probably a temporary internet issue that's preventing you from reaching the download server. Also go to help | check for updates to retry the check.

You can reinstall a prior downloaded installer if you haven't deleted it (assuming that that version hasn't expired). It takes infrastructure to provide rollback. We may provide rollback to the last supported version for paid members in the future.
