Cronus.dll - Run Time Error on Playback or Faulting Module

The information in this article applies to:

  • SONAR 8.5 Producer
  • SONAR 8.5 Studio
  • SONAR 8 Producer
  • SONAR 7 Producer

If you receive a Run Time error during playback, when working with V-Vocal, or if the program closes unexpectedly, the issue may be caused by Cronus.dll. This dll controls V-Vocal, which is hard-coded into SONAR. In some cases, enabling this dll from the Cakewalk Plug-in Manager has been known to resolve the issue.

Please try the following to resolve this error:
  1. Click Tools | Cakewalk Plugin Manager
  2. Select the “Show Excluded” button in the bottom left corner
  3. If you see Cronus in the list of Registered Plug-ins first select it and then click the Enable Plugin button also located in the bottom left corner. This will remove it from the Excluded Plug-ins List.
  4. Once the plug-in has been enabled you will need to restart SONAR
