  1. Thanks for the reply. I grabbed a magnifying glass app for my iPhone and was able to see the tiny 3; you’re right.
  2. I can't read the tiny icons in the plugins pane. One is white, one is yellow/gold? ?Which is the VST3 version. Thanks....
  3. Got my Faderport working. Yay! Turns out, I had to make sure Key Aftertouch and Channel Aftertouch were checked in Preferences/MIDI/Playback and Recording. These were checked in my CbB program, but apparently this is not the default on a new install of Sonar. Happy.
  4. Update: After rebooting, my Faderport will now control the volume slider on whatever track is in focus, but it won't control anything else. Start/stop transport, M/S/R, Read/Write to track, etc. Essentially, the basic functions. I can't figure out why it's not working, when it was fine in CbB. And ideas appreciated! Here is my Control Surface set up.
  5. I’m have both sonar and CbB installed and haven’t had any problems.
  6. Longtime CbB user here (actually, all the way back to Home Studio in the 90s). I just moved/subscribed to the new Sonar. Am running into a couple of issues. 1. My Presonus Faderport (Gen1) no longer works, and it worked fine in CbB for years. I've done the Preferences/Midi Devices and Control Surfaces route. I've tried all the Controller/Surface Types: ACT MIDI Controller, Mackie, etc. There's even a Presonus FaderPort option, I've tried. Nothing works. The Faderport is unresponsive. I still have CbB, and when I open that, the Faderport works fine. I deleted it in Sonar, and then added it back again, with the same working settings from CbB. No joy. Am I missing something in the new Sonar? 2. In the PRV Track Pane, there used to be Mute, Solo, Record buttons, now it looks like there's a spot where they're supposed to be, but it's blank. See attached. I can't see how to view them, if that's possible. Thanks.
  7. Well, that’s a litttle idiosyncrasy, eh? Thanks for pointing this out.
  8. No doubt there’s more flexibility with stuff like this. Using the simple instrument route is a hard habit to break from way back. Getting down more rabbit holes with everything Midi can do these days; I need to break that old habit.
  9. Hi all. I’m working in Sonar with a Kontakt instrument, set up as a “simple instrument,” so no separate Midi track routed to the instrument; all the data is on one track. I have the performance recorded. Next, I’m using sound-on-sound recording to record CC info from my controller’s mod wheel to manipulate the performance. I’ve tried selecting “record to separate take lanes” in the record setup, thinking Sonar would create a separate lane for the CC data. But it’s putting everything on top of my performance. It records fine, but the result is what looks like a big blank block on top of what I could previously see as Midi notes. I can see the CC info in PRV. I have more CC data to add, and I’d like organize things on their take lanes, and then tuck everything into a folder. Is it possible in “simple instrument” mode to record to separate lanes, or do I have the set things up different with the instrument to do this? Thanks.
  10. Please, please provide additional GUI themes and allow us to create and share themes -- like we've done for years in the past. I can hardly see the new monochrome GUI as it is. Quite frankly, it's awful and made even worse by the fact that we can't change it. Human-GUI interaction is where the whole relationship with tech starts. C'mon bakers.
  11. Hi. Thanks. Yes, have the Babylon articulation package, but haven't dived much into it. Very familiar with keyswitching in Kontakt, but I don't think the "change key" parameter when you're using Auto-Chord is available. From what I've been able to find, you have to go through Komplete Kontrol wrapper to access it.
  12. Thanks for the response. I’ve been away from the forum for a while, so I’ll track down feedback and weigh in. Totally unacceptable there’s no way to improve visibility. There is a custom Cakewalk themes link in your signature. Are those for the old Cakewalk?
  13. I finally made the leap and got the year subscription of Sonar for $49. The color/contrast level of the GUI is terrible. I can hardly make anything out. Are people doing themes and sharing them?
