S4 Upgrade Install Question

[tkingen]

Just received my Sonar 4 upgrade...hooray! I understand that it must be installed in a separate location than Sonar 3. So...after that is done, do you just go ahead and uninstall S3? Or, do you have to open your past projects and save them in S4 before uninstalling S3?
Apologies if this is a dumb question...I'm at work and haven't had a chance to look in the manual yet.

Regards,
Terry

Okay, answered my own question. If anyone ever has the same question, you can go ahead and uninstall the previous version. The audio folders are left intact and will be read by the upgraded version.

you might want to backup your settings/templates/presets first... also, there may be some effects in S3 that aren't in S4 so I recommend leaving the effects in place and then installing the S4. if you have the option to do it clean, install S3 - effects only, then S4. BTW - they do install to seperate directories so you shouldn't worry too much.
