Sadly,your opinion is not entirely correct...tunafish88 wrote:Sadly Cakewalk has always had a reputation for being an amateur, looper, cut and paste, non-musician program.
Sonar is a great DAW and even though I stopped supporting it at X3e - purely because Gibson and Henry da Vandal took over the reins - I have never had a issue with Sonar or any of the other Cakewalk products...
And I was using it professionally as my main DAW for many years...
Most people who upgraded to the newer versions of Sonar and have been getting the regular updates,have been very satisfied with the progress...
Well...up until Henry da Vandal pulled the plug...
Unfortunately,in this industry,many people are listening with their eyes and there is so much BS propagated out there,which the amateurs - who make up the bulk of the buying public - believe without question....
Most of them don't have any real depth of knowledge to make their own decisions, so like good little sheep,they just go with the flow and use places like KVR to hold hands and feel good about their collective choices...
Just because Sonar and other Cakewalk products weren't as popular as many of the other choices out there,this shouldn't be a reflection on the quality of the products...
You only need to look at MacDonald's to understand that some of the most popular products out there are absolute crap
