Just make sure it's not mid project and it's been a while between saves, but yeah, get Sonar Free (or get a Bandlab Membership) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass Guitar Posted Sunday at 01:54 AM Share Posted Sunday at 01:54 AM Nobody should be dependent on Cakewalk as of yesterday. That would be foolish. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provided you haven't done anything daft like uninstall CbB, AND you've pointed the scanner in Sonar to the same paths then you should be good to go. You might want to do a reset & rescan and check for excluded plugins Edited Sunday at 06:50 PM by Bristol_Jonesey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charles kasler Posted Sunday at 08:57 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 08:57 PM No I won't uninstall CBB although I could use the space, but I'm moving to a new computer soon. That's a whole different issue, not quite sure how to get sonar back. I think my plugins are okay, they just weren't showing in the little box until I resized it. Rescanning is a good idea however. Grateful to be back on sonar in a more advanced version than the one I paid for. Sonar is a much cooler name than CBB! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass Guitar Posted Sunday at 09:48 PM Share Posted Sunday at 09:48 PM For a new computer what I have done is use a storage device that is big enough to copy my old computers Program, Program Data and Documents folders onto. If you had own Legacy versions make sure you have the download folder for the Command Centre. This way you can easily access a lot of your personal settings. Also a lot of plug ins might not use installers so just copy them over. I am also in the habit of save a lot of stuff that was in my download folder. But best to see if a plug in was updated. For me Google is another lifesaver for a new computer. Just install Chrome and then log in. All your saved passwords and bookmarks are there. Before you turf the old computer make sure you de authorize any plug ins that were tied to that machine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBH Posted Monday at 11:44 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:44 PM I'm an old guy and I have an old computer that I desperately do not want to update. CBB works fine on my Win 7 system. I would gladly pay a straight up ( one time unlock fee ) tied to this Processor ID if I could. I will try to install Sonar Free and see if that gives me some form of path to purchase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither Sonar Free Tier or Sonar Premium will install on Windows 7 as it relies on Windows API calls that Windows 7 does not support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass Guitar Posted Tuesday at 02:10 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:10 PM Yep. W7 holdouts are now left behind. Not much will work anymore. I have a 2008 Sony laptop with W7. It only works with hardware and software that was produced 10 or more years ago. The good news is Sonar Platinum will run just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
