I got news for you, Sparky: you don't own software. Any software. At all. Ever.

You are granted a license to use it. Said license may or may not involve a financial transaction.

I own that license, I know you do not own the program code, but before, you bought a program and had the right to use it "forever", if you bought, for example, photoshop 5, you can continue using it today without paying anything to adobe, which does not happen with the new "licenses" that you can use them as long as you pay it every month, That is, you have a license for rent, you pay every month for the same.

They hide behind updates to correct errors, even worse, they recognize that they have sold you (rented) something that has not passed a quality control before putting it up for sale. But hey, as long as there are "customers" who accept it, well all good

Well that's not your call to make. The bakers will decide what is right for them AND for the user base. 

You are wrong, 

It is my decision and that of other users to pay for software, we are the client, not fans of a program If someone wants to have a rented program at the price of one purchased, well, nothing to object,

If I buy a car I want it to be mine, not to pay every month over and over again the same car.

That might suit you but it won't suit a lot of people

Of course, it could easily be both, but no doubt some will still find something to whinge about

For example that if I pay for a software I want to own that software, not be at the expense of what the creator wants

The "SUBSCRIBE way", many software tools work taht way today, can be translated as "You buy a software but that software never is going to be yours"

Divide the section you want to copy, select the piece of track, Edit-->Copy , select the destination track, click in the timeline you want to paste and Edit-->Paste

Sometimes crtl+V and ctrl+P dont't work well

No, i think you’ll find most people think of Audacity’s editing features (some easier to use than CbB …….) but it is very limited in terms of if you think its a DAW.

 

But anyway, why stop using CbB ? Its not going away.

I read no more updates for free version, but I also read that there'll no free version

About Audacity, I know it, it has  midi support ( very limited), anyway, I know we cannot compare with CbB, but you can make your music with it.

Audacity is a DAW, I know it is not like CbB, that´s because I use CbB, but it is a DAW

Sorry about Magix, this one https://www.magix.com/es/musica/music-maker/ Music maker free edition, some limitations, but you can make music without a problem.

Another one :https://www.tracktion.com/products/waveform-free

Another one : https://lmms.io/  ...

Not to mention combining multiple applications

Yes, I know,some of them lack some feature, they have some limitation, but what I mean is that if you are looking to create music with a free DAW, there are many options to choose from, that's why I say that destroying CbB is a big mistake, because a large part of its users use it, we use it, because it is incredible but also because it is free

I am not talking about "lite" versions, for example Magix , this one

https://www.magix.com/us/music-editing/free-download/independence-free-sampler-software/

I think CbB is better for me, but you can do the same with this one.

Audacity, a different league I Know, has added vst support, more work, different way, but you can creat music with it.

And you can do a search in google, sure there are more of them.

Big error from bandlab, CbB is a great free software, but there are several app out there that can do the same work and they will be free. Half a hour and you have them to start working.

I understand there is no more updates, but what I read is that you can continue using the last version... 

Just open the midi track and  add the instrument track to the project, then chop and drag the midi (in the midi track)  to the instrument track.

I´ll try it, thank you.

I have several usb mics, they all works right in other applications, for example audacity... But Cakewalk say it cannot use it because "driver problems" or because "the mic is being used for another app"

Do you have a similar problem? Any way yo fix it?

thanks.
