would love to do that but sadly I'll not likely retire any time soon (too many plugins to still buy 😉) .

Really Ed I thought you had brought all of them already 😆

I used to belong to a church choir but as an instrumentalist. My singing voice is very, very bad   But I know some of the choir members did help singing another persons parts for a tune.  If not religious disregard the idea.  Just tossing this out there.

I have seen some horrific accidents over the years, so "flying cars" just makes me realize how many Darwin Award contestants are coming. I worry more for the collateral damage that will result.

Heck yes!  Don't you dare try to take my space in the sky.   I tell you it will be epic when they try to merge back into regular 2D traffic.

Yes, but for how long after the change is made?

My bet is quite a few years.  I panicked like others here and brought several other DAW's  at the promotional price they were giving us Sonar users.  So I have a few to upgrade if I like. I'm an older person and my needs are not great so this time around I'll be sticking with the old CbB and take a slow long look at what the new Cakewalk Next and the new Cakewalk Sonar will offer me. I learned my lesson and I'm not in a hurry this time around.    I should of taken a deep breath and a few chill pills myself and I could of saved myself some $$.  Funny I never upgraded to the newer CorelDraw and I'm getting fine by with the older version for the little I still do in graphics. 

Anyway @Johnbee58   best of luck with your decision.

Well, I'm sure we're only a few years away from a working Star Trek transporter. You'll be able to order a guitar and in an instant have it materialize at the wrong address in another city. Imagine a world where a Nigerian prince can steal your identity and order himself your house. Or your wife and kids. Forget flying cars, this is a far more interesting Future.

How dare you say forgot the flying cars!  I want to see the traffic jams in the sky 😆

I wouldn't rush to go get anything and just wait and see.  Heck you will still be able to use your CbB

Someone from the Cakewalk staff and I believe a Beta tester said that their older processor was running just fine. I wouldn't worry to much about it.  

Found this from Noel

TBH I have never wrapped my head around Jamstix and I own the whole lot of products. Maybe I just did not spend enough time with it. At my age time is a precious commodity.

I have to admit I feel the same way about a lot of software as I get older.  My daughter just yesterday taught be something about my Android Phone that I didn't know I could do 😆   it was something simple to do and I was like really and my daughter was like "Duh Dad"   😮  

This is sad news    for the development of Jamstix but I hope Ralph is okay. 

 It is the price when dealing with small developers.  I love Mobilesheets Sheetmusic software too but it is basically a one man developer. So if anything happens to "Mike"  I worry what will become of this great software. 

All's well that ends well

Apart from all the other Meta apps...  Have you seen what Threads wants to hoover up?

I'm staying away from Twitter, Facebook and the like.   I have been tempted to join Facebook a few times for music related information but so far I have remained strong and resisted the Dark Side 😆 

I do admit my Wife has found information on the Parent Page Group where my daughters go to college.  So Facebook has its merits. I just don't feel like policing my computer to lock it down from all the hooks that Facebook gets into the computer system.

If your wife has that concern, then she shouldn't use her phone at all, since your carrier pretty much always can estimate your location all the time using signal triangulation. And that is also used by your phone GPS as well.

I keep trying to tell her that      Funny thing is she uses Facebook because she came from a large extended family that has relatives all across the Country.  I keep telling her that Facebook is the worst about sucking information about you 😆

MasterWriter doesn't harvest your personal data and sell it to anyone with a bank card either.

Are you sure    

The problem with this argument is that we all shouldn't be connected at all on-line then.   We went on a road-trip out West in May and the amount of data Google collected from my phone was insane. But my wife had her phone not to share location etc etc etc...... and she kept complaining that she can't find the information.  I guess it is the price we pay in a connected society.  Not saying I like it and I'm not on Facebook or the like so I pick the poison I can live with

 I have said many times before, okay for Google to track but not MS mentality is just wacky

With it being Whoops as the title, I thought it was a Whoopi Cushion VSTi 🤣

Oh No my poor cute innocent kitties are now in danger 😢

Anyone found hurting my southern Belle shall have to deal with my evil black cat as my BIL calls her.  So maybe put some rats in the box and go join them while you're there

This is exactly the kind of attitude that made the cakewalk "folk" so famous for.

I'm hardly famous

Seriously we all have been burned by something not working properly, going bad right after warranty, etc..............

My point is as an adult you have to learn to move along!   You're right I do have a place in my heart for Cakewalk as it is the first DAW I started with and I'm the most comfortable with over the years. But I have quite a few DAW's but as I gotten older I learned that each has pluses and minuses. 

.............. and yes I am known as a prankster/joker on here but also in the flesh too.   It is who I am and I mostly hang out in the Coffee House.   Sorry if you got offended by my off-handed humor.

Peace 🙃 😀
