It works perfectly. I long had wished CbB had this feature. Thanks

That's correct, but they can't be changed or edited. I exported CbB colors and imported them into Sonar. There was no change. And the preferences/colors doesn't work at all. i turned in a bug report on this one. In fact, the Color Schemes can't be edited like we have in CbB and Platinum. Someone, I think he was from Cakewalk said it's new UI that presently can't be edited like our old Theme Editor. Possibly we can do that in the future, I hope. This is not for esthetic reasons, it's for my workflow, so I can quickly visually find things.

V-Vocal will crash if there are any soft synths open. Not sure what processing stops are.

Themes are not part of the new Sonar due to changes in the UI. My Theme i developed years ago did not get imported from CbB. And the preferences/colors doesn't work at all. i turned in a bug report on this one. I hope later there is a Theme editor

At times, I may have 10 or so soft synths open and which to disconnect or temporarily disable them. I have to click each button, some take a while to turn off. Is there an easier way?

I installed Sonar Free on 2 different computers and got the same results of this Bug. Go to Preferences / Customization / Colors. Select all, change all the colors to light blue. Show strip Colors is checked save changes for next session is checked. Of course at first I tried less drastic changes. I'm disappointed that there are no Themes and no Theme Editor. I did extensive work on my Theme, which makes my work-flow work so much better, being able to see things clearly,

I was able to install by searching my Registry for all occurrences of D:\Cakewalk Content and changing to D to F (my F HD). I first created the folder - F:\Cakewalk Content here's my initial post: can't install Sonar on a 2nd computer, because it won't let me change the HD from D:\Cakewalk Content to F:\Cakewalk Content. I tried both advanced and Basic install and tried it without installing Cakewalk Product Center and with installing it. The window is greyed out. I need to install it on a 2nd computer for testing purposes, since I've found some bugs and have gotten no response from this thread

I can't install. Are you trying to say that before I try to install I need to sign out of Bandlab and then install, then sign back into bandlab? Please explain

Jonathan Sasor can you give me the registry key to delete, so I can do a clean install of Sonar. I do have CbB installed on my 2nd computer and had even platinum and 8.5

I’ve been using the very latest version of cakewalk by bandlab and installed sonar free today and during installation , I pointed it to cakewalk by bandlab for the settings and yes, I’ve been using workspace for years every song I have the work spaces or intact?

There's are maybe about 10 color schemes. Mercury color scheme is pretty good, i just want to tweak it some like i did when we had a theme editor. Can this be done

I just found out Themes from previous CbB/SONAR versions are not compatible with the latest Sonar which has a vector based UI instead of bitmaps. Can we adjust the UI, so I can make it looks similar to the Theme I like? I'd assume I'd do this in Preferences / customization / colors. I'm using Mercury color scheme for now. If I view "All colors" and change all the light blues to darker blue, hit ok. Nothing changes that I can see. IN that window is "Presets". Do we have any Presets I can try out? I see you can import and export colors

Keyboard shortcut bug? I just installed Sonar Free 2025.07 build 63 and imported my keyboard shortcuts that were created in CbB. Most of them work fine but when I hit Control-F3, it's assigned in keyboard shortcuts to go to Previous marker and Control-F4 to Next marker. Control-F3 instead opens Preferences Snap to Grid and Control-F4 starts playback and opens Preferences Snap to Grid . I hit unbind for both those shortcuts and then close and reopened preferences and hit bind to assign Control-F3 to Previous measure and Control-F4 to Next marker. It still doesn't work. Is this a bug? I went ahead and Zapped the Keyboard shortcuts and then set up Control-F3 + F4 again - same result
