Cakewalk affords users a large amount of flexibility in choosing the layout, color theme, and display settings.It is useful even for veteran users of Cakewalk and acts as a handy guide whenever required. Cakewalk’s Help module makes learning the DAW a quick and streamlined process.Additionally, Cakewalk also includes a 30-day free trial of Melodyne as an add-on. On installing the DAW, users get full access to all its features and future updates. Cakewalk by BandLab is completely free and fully featured.It seems X3 could see it wasn't registered with X3. I even tried to replace the vstscan.exe located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Cakewalk\Shared Utilities with my previous version of vstscan before installing X3, that didn't work that well. I'm using the last version of Vsampler, the paid version, 3.5a I haven't tried VST reset and rescan or regedit, although the uninstall in Vsampler asked if I wanted to clean the registry and I said yes. During the uninstall I also manually deleted the Speedsoft directory. When I uninstalled and reinstalled Vsampler, I only installed the VST. Initially I installed both VST and DXi, but found the DXi to be problematic, so I only use the VST. When installing VSampler, there is an option to install DXi, VST, and other formats. As you can see I'm using 32 bit X3 and have never used bit bridge. VSampler3.dll is the VST synth and it shows up in C:\Program Files (x86)\Cakewalk\Vstplugins. I tried excluding it, which doesn't help. This path is not in the scan paths in pluggin manager. In pluggin manager it shows the path to VSampler3DXI2.dll as C:\Program Files (x86)\Speedsoft\VSampler3\bin. In pluggin manager VSampler3DXI2 still shows up even after uninstalling it. Another possibility is that something like JBridge is causing it to be scanned. VSampler might be a dual VST and DXi which could be why its getting scanned.

Noel Borthwick SONAR only scans plugins that are in the scan path so please check it carefully.
