sjoens Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) Anyone have or willing to share the 8.3.1 Update for Studio Edition? This was the last FREE update for version 8. I would be grateful as mine disappeared during a system crash years ago and never thought to redownload it. Cakewalk Support said they're ok with sharing since the legacy links are no longer active. https://legacy.cakewalk.com/Support/Knowledge-Base/20090219/SONAR-8-3-1-Update Thanks in advance. EDIT: Thanks to msmcleod legacy links work when "legacy" is in the URL. Replace the "www" if it's not there. Edited February 28 by sjoens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I can't find an 8.3.1. Is that definitely the correct version number ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michayl Asaph Myers Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Wayback Machine shows 8.3.1/2009... the download link doesn't work though....bummer. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 (edited) Yes... 8.3.1 was the final FREE update for version 8 and you must have 8.0 to apply it. 8.5 (instead of 9) was a paid upgrade, which can be confusing. I put a link to the KB article above. Edited February 19 by sjoens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I only had 8.0 Producer version so I can't help you with Studio version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmcleod Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Ok, seems that some of the links weren't updated when the old website was moved... so: 1. Log into legacy.cakewalk.com 2. Use this download link: https://legacy.cakewalk.com/support/dl.aspx?DLID=92 Essentially, change any download link that starts with http://www.cakewalk to https://legacy.cakewalk and it should work. I've let the web team know about the issue. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, in my case under 8.0 Pro it says there are no download links available. I'm not bothered about this personally as I have 8.5 Pro and all the update patches for that, which I guess contains everything that was ever in 8.0 Pro anyway, but I'm just mentioning it in case it might be a problem for anyone else.

sjoens Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 (edited) Yeah, thanks MS. I thought there was a way to make them links work but the support team said the files weren't available. Before I only had to set the browser to allow insecure content to download, but that didn't work this time. BTW, your link reverts to the old link when the page opens so you have to manually change the www to legacy in the address bar after it does... then you see the file downloading and the URL revert back to www. Paulo, I don't think the main 8.0 installs were offered as a download, at least mine isn't. The updates were tho. EDIT: Home Studio 7.0.1 update is downloadable. Home Studio 7.0.2 update link defaults to Support main page. Edited February 20 by sjoens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, sorry, I realise that. I meant the updates to 8.0. They do not show up for me. As I said, it doesn't really matter to me personally, just thought it worth mentioning in case it's ever a problem for someone else. While I was there I was just going to grab the 8.3.1 update file that I couldn't find when I was looking at my old files for you in case anyone else ever needed it.

sjoens Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 They won't be on your products page. You have to open the Support > Knowledge Base page and search for Sonar 8. I found 8.0.1, 8.0.2 and 8.3.1 updates there. They can be downloaded by fixing the links as per msmcleod above. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
