I would also like to understand this better. From what I gather, compatibility of version 5 into 6 is the ability to load version 5 in the standalone version of TRacks-6. Is that correct? Is that the only thing? Is there any benefit of having TRacks-6 (not intro) when a version 5 plugin is loaded inside a DAW?

Thanks, but the deal is gone anyway. I just lost the chance to have even more plugins that I don't use for a very low price! I also gain time that I won't be speeding learning these new plugins. Not that bad. 😋 I do use a lot of IK stuff, but I do feel I already have more than I can handle plugin wise. Who knew I'd find that having too many plugins might be a reality! Too much time involved in learning them and a too much time taken by plugin scans. But it still would have been fun to look at the new stuff... I guess we are incorrigible plugin junkies!

Do I need to have T-Racks 5 max to upgrade or the fact that I have T-Racks 5 with than half the modules is enough?

Well if the US would have been the 11th province at least my order would have gone through!

Dang, can't enter a canadian address!

Thanks Xoo!

No haven't had time yet.

Installed and used are 2 different things. Have you tried renaming it, temporarily, and starting Cakewalk if anything breaks? Could it just be the install app that hasn't been updated?

I haven't upgraded yet and can't say if it is worth it, but there is a UI upgrade that will certainly show on any OS.

Incredibly enough, they revamped their nice plugin suite for the second to last issue. I guess the cancellation was a last minute thing.

The guy doing most of the deals here was the user cclarry. I think he was banned or he just left, not sure. I don't know the whole story. But if you google cclarry you might find where he post now.

If I remember correctly, what was stated is that there will not be new functionality on the free version but there would be bug fixes if something is broken. That would include, I am sure, activation problems.

Or you may be able to get it through your local library. I have access to it through the Libby app that is supported by my library. I get access to SOS, Computer Music, Beat and many other mags. This in Quebec, Canada. YMMV depending on where you live.

Well, since many here are remarking that the age group is high on this forum: Happy grand-father's day!

Thanks for the input guys. I think Mixcraft seems a viable alternative and reasonably priced. But now that CbB remains available for, hopefully a while, I will keep using it for now. But at least I now know that there are good alternatives if the need arrises down the road. Although I would enjoy the new Sonar and all the new features to come, CbB does the job fine as it is and I have no use for the other Bandlab services in what I do. So the subscription is not really for me. In any case, I would rather be a better musician than have a better DAW! ?
