Thanks for these great videos. I especially like the way you've added some experience-based tips here and there. Very useful.
Other good resources for Bandlab Cakewalk users are some of the earlier Sonar videos. Here, for example, is a great playlist of 50 videos which are still relevant.

Hi folks! There are many scenarios for exporting from your DAW - for streaming, mp3 playback, stems, and CD. This tutorial is in Cakewalk by Bandlab, but other DAW users may find it useful!

Hi folks! I know that some people really struggle to get multiple Kontakt outputs behaving well in Cakewalk by Bandlab. Rather than leave you in peril, I put together a quick tutorial for you of course!

Yep. Cakewalk has vastly improved since the latest acquisition. I've been using non-stop for days and haven't had a glitch. Complete opposite of my old experience. Interested to see where it is after another year under the developer's belt.

Hi folks! I see a lot of Cakewalk by Bandlab users having trouble installing their VST plugins, so I made this video which I hope is helpful!

Thankyou, creativesauce for the videos/knowledge. I'll be adding
a new computer to my setups this winter, and hopefully
Cakewalk will be part of that, along with Mixbus, Bitwig 8 Track,
and Reaper.
If you're not a Bandlab employee, they should be
knocking on your email door, with a nice offer, if they
know what's good for themselves. I've had some
good contact with support staff, and look forward
learning from your videos when the snows come

Cheers

Hi folks! Gain staging is a key skill to know in mixing, and there are some specifics for Cakewalk you should know. Even for beginners, the knowledge in this video can be applied right away!

Hi folks! I want to thank the Cakewalk community for telling me all about the features they would like to see improved. I've made a video with my suggestions, and have highlighted some that the community suggested. Let me know what yours are!
