As I keep finding, the manuals need a bit of healing themselves as there are a number of erroneous entries.

Most interesting. Checked 8.3 thru SPlat and none have this. Maybe the manual could be corrected?

SONAR 8 had no download option. The 8.5 upgrade did but it won't work without 8 installed.

Page 1511 of 2022 CbB manual (1472 of 2024 Sonar manual) says there's a Views menu for Synth Rack Icons. But this option does not exist in my CbB Views menu. Is it in the Sonar menu? Views menu: Yes Synth Rack is open with synths in it.

Even Adobe Acrobat does this, tho it's a quick click of the continue for free button to remove it. It also seems to happen only the 1st time it's opened. The Subscribe button is in the same header as the doc tabs so no screen space is lost.

INS files are simple text files you can edit with whatever names you want for each voice. .Note Names [Ensoniq SQ1+ All Purpose Kit] 24=Dynamic Kick 1 25=Dynamic Kick 1 26=Dynamic Kick 2 27=Dynamic Kick 2 28=Thump Snare 1 29=Thump Snare 1 30=Thump Snare 2 31=Thump Snare 2 32=Closed Hi-Hat 1 33=Closed Hi-Hat 2 34=Open Hi-Hat 1 35=Open Hi-Hat 2

Even my SPlat "Membership" says Valid through infinity - not "To Infinity and beyond!"

It might need this the 1st time it's installed but my version has never needed it since. SPlat & CbB have separate Theme Editors. SPlat themes are in Cakewalk Content/SONAR Themes CbB themes are in Cakewalk Content/Cakewalk Themes Themes files are the same format and will load in either DAW but there are minor differences that may need re-editing to work properly. Missing or added Control Bar Modules, features, button states, some colors, etc. The Theme Editor is basically a standalone resource editor for Cakewalk products only that reads from - but does not alter - the default TTSImage file. It's possible to "theme" older SONAR versions (X3 and prior) using generic resource editors but they won't create a "theme" file. They alter the default TTSRESxxx file, so backing up the original is a must, which good editors can do automatically. One limitation with X3 and prior is Track Icons can only be BMPs. PNG format was added with SPlat.

Chrome is goofy. Noel's link loaded with images the 1st time I clicked on it, but now it doesn't. Images are stored on a non-secure site and removing the S from https (as in Noel's link) allowed non secure content to show, but Chrome now foils this action by reinserting it. I have cakewalk.com listed in Chrome's permission settings to allow everything but there may be settings I'm not aware of. Removing the S works in Edge ATM and maybe others.

Maybe it's custom themeing from within by AI. 😁

Assigned Controls and the buttons to open them only show when Synth Rack is floating or in Multidock. They are hidden when docked in the Browser. You can add knobs by right-clicking an available spot.

Thanks Jorge, I was off line all day.

There's a setting in Preferences to show track strip colors same as previous versions.
