Thanks, DJX.  That's just what I was going to say.

 

I'm a bit embarrassed if our webpage does not tell you that JAWS 15 will
work with CakeTalking 8.8.  It definitely will.

Hi, Sonar 8is 64bit compatible, you can select to install 32bit or 64bit
when installing. Note that direct x for the most part is useless on 64bit
sonar, so if you plan to use allot of those, you might want to stick to
32bit sonar on windows 64.

 

HTH, D!J!X!

Howdy Friends, After my xp bit the dust and not worth fixing,  couple
e-mails from Bill, and see now that I'm going to need to upgrade my
caketalking version to 8.8 in order to run on windows 7 which is ok, but
pretty sure my win 7 machine is a 64 bit computer so thinking that I may
need to buy a new copy of sonar as well, since believe first version in 2009
that i have is a 32 bit.

    Does anyone know if the version i can currently buy from dancing dots is
most current with caketalking 8.8, as hoping to avoid some of the updating
and stuff needed to do previously in order to bring sonar 8.0 up to 8.53?
Hoping there is a sonar 8.53 64 bit so I will be set.

As it is, one crash of my xp machine is going to be possibly expensive and a
major hastle configuring caketalking so hoping to find the path of least
resistance. at least I already had the win 7 machine or would have just
tried to get a "like new" win xp computer. the old caketalking 8.0 worked
plenty good for me and was just perfect til the crash, so hoping to get back
to that and after only a few days, really missing my recording setup.

obviously, at this point will do whatever is required, but looking for least
expensive and least hastle as i can since not a computer literate person....

   In closing, cant thank those on this list enough for all your help,
including Bill and DJX. Hoping to purchase whatever updates necessary today
but webpage a little confusing and will probably call office first.

As it is, turns out caketalking 8.8 is able to work with jaws 15 and not
even on their web page, so not taking any chances of buying anything else
til I am sure it will work together. at least believe my focusrite scarlet 2
should work on windows 7. Sincerely, Dave
