Actually, they don't have to migrate any effects to ProChannel. They can just license the chorus, delay, and a couple others from VKFX.

It's again that time of the year when a vendor "accidentally" leaks some info and speculation threads blossom. Is it really for accident?

According to Google it also seems that something showed up on fullcompass and a thread on Cakewalk Forum was started on it. Now of course no trace of the thread and Full Compass Cakewalk product list no longer includes SONAR X3... it was advertised as available in 3/4 weeks - just Google quickly for "sonar x3 leak"

The plot thickens

yup i reckon some of the currently paid-for prochannel plugs will be free-with-producer, like the overloud vkfx

lolz. No, and quite honestly I don't care. My point was that that is about a week after it's release so that is when I expect to see it approx.

I expect forum melt down 3 days after release.

I don't even know what I'm interested in Sonar X3. But I am, in a perverse way. As if it will fix my laundry list of complaints. I guess you feel a special way about your first DAW.

Is it just me, or is the prominence of the word "professional" in audio product marketing inversely proportional to the sophistication of the target audience?

You mean only noobs would buy a product which is marketed as being professional? Why is that? I don't think anyone has money to throw out of the window.

Well, I was one of those noobs, so I can hardly judge them. Rather, "professionals", i.e. people who are successful enough to make a living by using the software, already have "professional" software because any software they use for their work is, by definition, professional. Professionals don't strive to be professional, they already are. So the word "professional" is tantalizing only to those who are outside the profession wistfully looking in.

a professional answer

cryophonik · Post by **cryophonik** » Tue Sep 17, 2013 9:25 pm

The use of the word "Professional" in this case is simply to help differentiate between the three flavors of Sonar by providing a short description on the box:

Essential - Powerful tools for the home studio
Studio - Advanced music creation software
Producer - Professional recording, mixing, and mastering

I don't see the problem.

I think the use of the word "professional" is solely of marketing nature... same discussion as in another, Reason related, thread.
