@Colin Nicholls Awesome! Thanks so much.

In Bandlab Cakewalk Console View, I used to be able to add a color to the whole track which I used to help identify different instruments. However, in Sonar only the bottom part of the track is colored. Is there some setting to get the whole track to be that color?

@Glenn Stanton Thanks Glenn. I had apparently click on ADVANCED in Workspace which changed the view I was used to. All is good now.

All of my projects have been saved with Console View showing. However, I must have done something because none of them any longer open with Console View showing. I have to go to View and click on Console View.

Got it! in View / Events I removed the CC's from those particular instruments and all is working now as expected. Thanks for the help.

What are RPN and NRPN events? And, how does one check the VST properties?

The instrument does not automatically open up. However, when I click on the preview part of the GUI it does. I can also play the instrument at the point. However, when I copy the MIDI data to that track it mutes the instrument. This is only happening with the SI-Bass and SI-Drum Kit.

I am working on a project and want to change the MIDI bass and drum tracks to use SI-Bass and SI-Drums. After adding the new instrument tracks to the project and copying the MIDI data to the new tracks there is no sound. If I add other VST bass and drums and copy the MIDI data there is sound. No sound with the SI Bass and Drums.

The recent Sonar update released this last Friday did indeed fix the Playlist display issues. However, I am noticing some other peculiar behavior with Playlists. At our most recent band practice and at our live performance yesterday. If I moved straight through the Playlist songs as they are in order everything plays just fine. However, if I click/touch one of the songs in the list to play out of order it launches Cakewalk by Bandlab in the background and the Playlist freezes.

I want to start over. How do I completely uninstall Sonar and Sonar Product Center without hurting my installation of Cakewalk by Bandlab?

It happens with any of the Presets randomly.

Done!

The latest update resolves the issue with the Playlist. Thanks!

@Jonathan Sasor I've attached a .zip file of the .dmp file here. Can't Stop The Feeling-deleted-tracks6_LIVE_07122025_122512.zip

@Jonathan Sasor How about if you provide a link to a share I can upload it to? This is now happening on 9 out of 10 times when trying to add a ProChannel Preset to a track on any project!! As stated, this is not happening on Bandlab Cakewalk... only Sonar.

Trying to add ProChannel preset to one of my projects in Sonar throws error and crashes Sonar. I've attached the .txt associated with the .dmp file which is to large to upload and which I have no idea how to read or rather should say don't know what I am looking for in it. it does not throw and error or crash when doing the same thing in Bandlab Cakewalk.

Great! When should we expect the next update?

Version: 2025.07 (Build 063, 64 bit) Up to date

The latest version as of when? It shows that I have the latest verstion.

@msmcleod Hello, is there a solution for this issue? Thanks

So... being a software test engineer and Tier 4 support engineer....this looks like a bug to me...

Sonar X3 Studio does have a Customization/Colors under preferences which shows a drop down that contains: Bricht, Dark, Mono, Normal. However, when selecting any of the 4 options nothing changes. As such i though there was a Themes folder where I could drop some themes.

Where is the THEMES folder located in the old Sonar X3 Studio?

Got it. Thanks

Why would it be different for Sonar and not BbC or Sonar X3 Studio?
