I use Mac and PT so it's a moot issue for me obviously . But honestly I hope it proves to be a great product for those who use it .. BUT you can certainly offer a counter view and explain your view, without instructing others how not to feel about it . Just sayin

I down loaded mine. I kind of looked at it a couple of minutes is all. Now I want to figure out how to arm each track. That's always a stumbling block for me.

Some are done by users and some by Calkwalk Do a google search on how to record with sonar Platinum, and then hit the video search.

Exactly what I did as my quote says "And the reason I posted a reply to his original post is to make sure users that have never tried it wouldn't be too scared to give it a chance" ... just sayin

Well obviously some miscommunication. Because what you did was not "exactly" what I posted . You offered your counter view with the preface suggestion to "lighten up" which what I was referring to, as "instructing others how not to feel" and unnecessary. And honestly I think there is little danger of "others being too scared to try it " given it is free ...

"Lighten up" (hence the smily face) was for levity not to tell him how he should feel, and his scathing opinion of Sonar/Cakewalk was based on a very limited experience and not based on the current version, which is not only very stable, but has TONS of online support. But many people when reading online reviews, if they see a bad experience, they might not want to chance giving something a try. And this deal is probably the best bargain I've seen in the last ten years on free PROFESSIONAL software. I feel my post was warranted. And by the way when I need a guidance counselor on how I should post I'll let you know. Rudy replied to my post and said his peace.

As far as my own personal experience, I was already a "Cakewalk" user and liked the program well enough that I decided to spend the money to upgrade to Sonar. That's when it all went south... I cleared out any remaining vistages of Cakewalk and Sonar and downloaded and installed Mackie Tracktion which I used for several years without problem. Mackie used to provide the older last version of Tracktion as a free download when they released a newer version. It was a very intuitive and easy to use DAW, but I gave it up when I went with a new PC and purposefully did not hook it up to the internet. I went for a paid version of Reaper, as it didn't require on-line registration. I love Reaper. |

I just thought , "lighten up " sounded to me , a bit like something a guidance counselor might say : You don't see it like that, and that is ok also

It will be interesting to see how this all plays out, as rockabilly69 correctly mentioned, and from the info on the website it is a fairly full featured version of the DAW program, unlike many free DAWs
If I used a windows computer I would certainly be tempted to check it out

Actually I have been with Cakewalk since the very early days, and there's a part of me that's a bit chuffed about giving it away for free when I had to pay to get in the club. But there's another part of me that sees this as a great way for people that have talent, but very limited discretionary income, to get into recording. I would rather take the high road here. And for those of us that got into DAWs in the early days when cakewalk was hard to set up (or any other DAW), it forced us to learn about setting up computers. Funny thing, if it wasn't for these early issues, I would know very little about the inner workings of computers, like editing the Bios, partioning hard-drives, Regedits, Msconfig, etc. And that knowledge has really helped me with many issues outside of the audio world!!!
