My Core EQ does not have a solo button.

I could be wrong, but I thought the Solo Button was part of a list of suggestions:

In addition to the Spectrum Analyzer, also adding a SOLO Button for each band is very useful.

as if to mean "also adding a SOLO Button for each band would be very useful. "

Core Spatial Panner — Clarifying Its Role in Modern Spatial Workflows

The term “spatial” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Beyond basic attenuation and Doppler effects, what actual spatialization capabilities does the Core Spatial Panner offer? Is there true 3D positioning, or are we simply repackaging stereo panning with a new UI?

More importantly: how does this plugin behave in a multichannel surround context like 5.1 or 7.1?
Being VST-based, it lacks native surround routing—so is it meant to complement existing surround panners, override them, or operate in a hybrid configuration? The presence of a single surround output channel feels like a throwback to Dolby Pro Logic, not a tool designed for modern immersive formats.

If “immersive” is part of the branding, then expectations naturally lean toward compatibility with Dolby Atmos, Ambisonics, or at least multichannel beds. Is there any support for object-based audio, height channels, or spatial metadata? Or is “immersive” being used loosely to describe psychoacoustic tricks within stereo?

The Sonitus Suite was DirectX plugins, making them work on a surround bus or track.
Sonar don't support for surroundVST plugins at all;  so what good is it then?

Not sure what you are using, but it's working just fine with my setup.

(as shown) I'm using a track patched directly into a surround bus. 
If one is excepting "surround" i.e. audio to, at least one discrete, rear-channels;  then it's doesn't work at all.
I guess i just got carried away and hoped Cakewalk would finally support surround VST plugins,  since they seem to be converting DirectX to VST these days

If i may ask: what is your setup, and expectations from the plugin?

I do film scoring and it gives exactly what I need from it. I've used the Sonitus Surround for years creating surround effects. Everything from Front to Back movement, Left or Right voice placement, background noise of people walking, cars even above the head sound placements.

Make sure you don't have the plugin input in mono.
