It's worth mentioning that many of the new gadgets and features described here are exclusive to the Producer Edition of Sonar 5. The more affordable Studio Edition offers fewer of the high-end whistles and bells (see www.cakewalk.com/products/sonar/studio.asp for more details), although it's still a very creditable package in its own right.
that's all good info. Unfortunately a lot of my Sonar 8.5 projects were done in 32 bit mode due to some of the plugins I liked "tape simulator" being one a quite a few, thus the reason about original registration licenses and codes etc. ...I was also on XP at the time of original install. Luckily they were still the original cakewalk when I switched to Windows 7 ... When I open CbB many of the plugins are missing even in 64 bit version some of those aren't there either. That's why I am hoping to clone my drive and do my 10 upgrade on that. I will always have my Windows 7 (offline) to rely on. I just actually prefer the older interface and work flow of 8.5 Producer to be honest, both 64 and 32 bit versions... only issue with 32 is you are limited to 8 gigs of ram and i have 32 gigs installed. Stayed with 8.5 when i decided that yearly liscense fees were for the birds!
