![]() Sonar will remain intact on your system as long as you don't uninstall it - which I recommend you don't do if you want to keep access to all of the Sonar VSTs. The only way Cakewalk by Bandlab would replace Sonar Platinum is if Cakewalk by Bandlab suddenly decided to install into the "C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\SONAR Platinum" folder. I do not expect this to change any time soon.Īt the moment you don't get a choice. So I won't loose my bought extra's by Cakewalk?Ĭakewalk by Bandlab installs into a separate folder "C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core" Should I delete the old Cakewalk Sonar? What's a smart move? Or should I delete the new Bandlab version? And wait for one wich updates my Cakewalk version. Muziekschuur at home I've installed the bandlab version. Marc P.S.: Sorry, just an emotional drop out after an automatic Windows update at the wrong time! Nowadays I spend so much time to handle the hassles of software (automatic updates, internet authentications, installers, workarounds, fixing errors, virus protection. Unfortunately many of the programs I liked have gone into this direction and IT IS SURELY NOT THE END of that evil! Oh God, how much do I like to live in this fantastic century! In the past I liked software and the internet, because it made things easier and faster. And most malicious is the way they obscure the possiblities for users to turn off the plagues. More and more software slows down your startup, starts processes for things that happen rarely, eats up your computer and network resources. Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, they are all good prototypes for this malpractice. The engineers piss out software that dominates the users (intelligent programs!) instead of asking them what they want to do. I think it is more like an attitude in the software industry of the 21st century. On the bright side, I did test the program on a huge song (over 200 tracks, almost 10 minutes long) last night and had no problems so it's a good news, bad news day so far! Thanks very much to Bandlab but you need to be more transparent in certain areas. It makes me wonder what else they've snuck onto my computers. This is a huge black mark on the company already. The last thing I want is another program running, stealing CPU cycles and memory. When I want to check for updates I'll do it manually, thanks. At no time did it ask my permission to keep running after I closed it and frankly I don't want or need to have it running. I don't even know why that bandlab assistant is running on my computers. I was 99% sure it was a virus and it took a bit of investigating with Process Explorer to figure out. A message appears on my screen saying "Updates are available" with zero information about the program or the company name. This is absolutely unacceptable and they need to change this TODAY. I saw this message at home last night and now again at work (where I also installed the new Cakewalk). ![]()
