One final tip

The last few "updates" (say last for months) for Sonar and some their apps like Rapture Pro have started LOCKING updates and re-installs of items (the program itself, add-ins, as well as the various shared DXI, MIDI, etc. component folders you set up at first install) to the initial install location, period.

IF YOU WANT to MOVE things around or maybe have SHS on a different drive or partition - you would have to UNINSTALL it (and that uninstall removes a lot of stuff in COMMON with other and/or older Cakewalk product installs) completely - then reinstall it to new location.

For now, for you - that probably sounds unimportant especially if you have a large boot drive (i.e., C:\ drive) and/or you always install everything to default locations then this won't matter (YET).

But as you start filling up your boot drive with OTHER applications or if you have a small SDD (solid state disk drive) this WILL be important.

SO if you think you may want to have SHS and a lot of its "stuff" on a different drive or partition - NOW is the time to do it. Uninstall everything, then do a clean "initial" install to where you KNOW you will want it for years to come.

Just a heads up - that's all
