If you can do this "addon takes seconds" in seconds . . . my hat is off to you:)

I guess I'm a member of the Naked Head Club then.

You shouldn't need to create the directory, the plug-in installer should do it for you, and since it's a subfolder of the standard VST3 path, it doesn't need to be added to Sonar's scan paths either.

The install under normal circumstances takes no longer than installing any other suite of lightweight VST3 fx. By "seconds," surely less than a minute. More like <10 seconds on my systems.

There is something messed up in your installation if you don't have common files/vst3 in your default vst scan path unless you manually removed it. 

Every clean installation of sonar includes that path because it is the standard vst3 location across it should never be removed. This is why it didn't work for you. All that is required is to install the latest version of sonar and then the core plugins add on without running through all the hoops you did 

No, that directory did not exist for me . . . perhaps I'm guilty of having every version of Sonar installed since Sonar 8 living on my 14 year old computer.

Not familiar with Naked Head Clubs, more up on the Fuzzy Grey Club . . . but agreed, the install should create that directory . . . so, the question would be why it didn't after running the plugin install at least twice on my computer ? Maybe everyone else here has newer computers.

You said you'd doff your hat if the process had taken him "seconds." I figured that you'd extend your pledge of cranial nudity to others who had such luck.😄

I'm a fuzzy grey myself.

As far as why you had to jump through extra hoops on your system....who knows. It's working now, and I bet it will work in the future.

The issue with the hard to see colored rings around the knobs could be solved by making the rings wider, too.

Yes, you are correct.  That is the first solution that I thought, but while I started typing I forgot that completely 😁🤭

Thank you for adding that 👍
