synkrotron 311 Posted April 4 6 hours ago, Oscar Myer said: I started out on Cakewalk 3 I think I did too, but me brain might be playing tricks. I'm pretty sure that by that time Windows 3 was out and Cakewalk ran on that. I seem to remember that the arrangement window had black blobs on a grid. In fact, just googled and found this:- I got it bundled with one of them Sound Blaster sound cards that came with an EMU daughter board... Was good for GM, for the price... My first "proper" sound module was the Korg 05R/W, which I still have on a shelf in my studio. Doubt if I'll ever use it again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulo 490 Posted April 4 The first I ever heard of the name Cakewalk in terms of music production was some version that came on an Aerosmith cd that you could load onto your pc (win 98 or XP IIRC) so that you could "remix" the lead track. Can't remember which track it was now and can't find the disc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grem 985 Posted April 7 (edited) My first was Voyetra Digital Orchestra. It came bundled with a Ensonix sound card. I had no idea what to do with it. In the process of looking for help for VDO, I found the Cakewalk News Groups. And then someone helped me get started with Professional Audio 6 (Pro Audio was top of the line back then). Didn't go to PrAudio till version 8. Edited April 7 by Grem Ss 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
