Just a reminder -- affiliate "deals" such as the one I just deleted are NOT considered bargains for purposes of Bargain Center, so please don't post them here. This thread is for saving others money as a friendly gesture, not as a way of making a little on the side yourself. If you see such a post, please let a moderator know and we'll remove them.
Some companies I admire and respect have affiliate programs. Great! If you participate in such a program and someone asks about buying, send them a PM with your link or ID. Just be honest -- explain to then what the deal is, and that you stand to profit if they accept it. Most people won't mind, as long as you're up front about what you're doing.

Maybe they do this to make Euro crisis worse...Numanoid wrote:Just a shame that Cakewalk gives a bad deal for Euro customers, putting Euro and Dollar at the same rate, even though dollar is only about 80% worth of the Euro, meaning that Euro customers should have paid about €119 to match $149, yet we have to pay €149, €30 more than the deal dollar customers get.Ceej wrote: Basically, if you buy or upgrade to any level of Sonar X1, you'll get the next level free. So, upgrade to Essential, get Studio; upgrade to Studio, get Producer; upgrade to Producer, get Producer Production Suite.
Don't they know there is a crisis here in Euro zone, we need all the help we can get

wow that's *unbelievable*Ceej wrote:Cakewalk's June deal is the "First Class Upgrade":

Basically, if you buy or upgrade to any level of Sonar X1, you'll get the next level free. So, upgrade to Essential, get Studio; upgrade to Studio, get Producer; upgrade to Producer, get Producer Production Suite.
This plays nicely with the on-going $19.99 deal for Sonar X1 LE (which is itself an excellent deal):
http://www.store.cakewalk.com/b2cus/Pro ... G31.00-20E
because that qualifies you for upgrade pricing. So, starting from scratch, you could get into Sonar X1 Producer for $168.99 ($19.99 for LE, $149.00 for Studio upgrade, free upgrade to Producer), which is a heck of a deal.
I don't know how long the X1 LE package is going on for - I thought it was supposed to end last month, so think about jumping onto this quickly.
sonar x1 producer for 170 bucks.. WOW!

I just realized I can do you one better. B&H has Sonar X1 Studio for $154.99 with free shipping. Buy it now and you'll get the upgrade to Producer free from Cakewalk. Boom, Producer for $155.ttoz wrote:wow that's *unbelievable*Ceej wrote:Cakewalk's June deal is the "First Class Upgrade"...

Now, if you do the Sonar X1 LE -> Studio -> Producer approach for $169 that I listed earlier, you do come out a little ahead, because the LE Bundle includes the MP3 encoder activation (normally $19.99) as well as a Digital Sound Factory sampler pack and the first hour of the "Sonar X1 Explained" video from Groove3. But if you don't want/need those extras, hey, save another $14.

To be honest, I think a lot of people should seriously consider picking up the Sonar X1 LE Starter Pack. $19.99 for that is a crazy deal all on its own. X1 LE is fully-featured, with the vast majority of the DAW features from Sonar X1 Producer. You give up Step Sequencer and Score Editor, but you do get the Matrix View and basically all the other editing features. It is 32-bit only, and it doesn't get the updates that the other X1 editions do. It's limited to 8 simultaneous VSTis, which is probably the biggest restriction, but perfectly serviceable. And of course you get far fewer included instruments and effects. Here's the complete list of features and stuff; check it out:

But it's 20 freakin' dollars and even comes with a decent tutorial video!
http://www.store.cakewalk.com/b2cus/Pro ... G31.00-20E
At least buy it for a friend who's thinking about getting into music, or something.

Amen to that.Ceej wrote:To be honest, I think a lot of people should seriously consider picking up the Sonar X1 LE Starter Pack. $19.99 for that is a crazy deal all on its own
Not just the DAW is a steal, but also Cakewalk Sound Center and Drummer is included, and these VST's can be used freely on their own or with other DAWs if preferred without the need for rewire.

Not trying to endorse Roland particularly but see now that there is a lot of other promos available, for those who buy Jupiter 80 get Sonar X1 Producer free for instance:Numanoid wrote:Here is a nice summer deal for US customers, valid between June 1 and August 31:
Purchase an A-PRO Series Controller and Download Z3TA+ 2 Synth free
Cakewalk is selling Z3TA+ 2 separatly for $99, and it's a great synth, so this is a good bonus to consider if you are getting a midi controller nevertheless.

But sadly seems only to apply for US customers....

Next month after purchasing I have found 5 critical bugs which block work on this DAW.
They are still reproduced on last x1d update.
