This &#8217;64-bit&#8217; plug-in won&#8217;t be recognized by a 32-bit version of SONAR even though the file name is correct.  Follow the appropriate steps below to manually install the 32-bit AlphaTrack.dll file and allow AlphaTrack to operate normally. The 32-bit AlphaTrack.dll file may be included with this download, or separately available at  HYPERLINK &#8220;http:\/\/frontierdesign.com\/Support\/Downloads&#8221; http:\/\/frontierdesign.com\/Support\/Downloads.<\/p>\n<p>VISTA 64 Users:<\/p>\n<p>Run the AlphaTrack installer normally, selecting the option box to include the SONAR Control Surface Plug-In. After you complete the AlphaTrack driver installation there should be a file called &#8216;AlphaTrack.dll&#8217; in the (Program Files\\Cakewalk\\Shared Surfaces) folder.<br \/>Locate, and rename the file to &#8216;AlphaTrack64.dll&#8217;.<br \/>Then copy the 32-bit file (AlphaTrack.dll) into the same shared surfaces folder.

Click the &#8216;START&#8217; button and open a Command Prompt window as Administrator by right clicking the Command Prompt icon (All Programs\/Accessories), and choosing &#8220;Run as Administrator&#8221; (The Title bar of the resulting window will indicate that you are in fact running as an admin).<\/p>\n<p>b.

Then type the following:<br \/>regsvr32 &#8220;c:\\program files\\cakewalk\\shared surfaces\\AlphaTrack.dll&#8221;, and hit enter again.
