Colin Nicholls Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 I'm just .... offended... on behalf of Cakewalk, is all. I guess without an advertising budget, they don't get mentioned, ever. Rant over.
Pragi Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) Cakewalk is mentioned by SOS latest in July 2018 by Craig Anderton. https://www.soundonsound.com/techniques/cakewalk-bandlab For some magazins it is not very interesting to write about a not advertising product./company.

Vernon Barnes Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Bandlab own Music Technology mag, and Cakewalk seldom gets a mention there either.

paulo Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Meh. I can't even be bothered to look at SOS these days. It's mostly ads or ads in disguise anyway.

According to https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/topic/18450-why-isnt-cakewalk-open-source/&tab=comments#comment-156127 SOS dropped the column. Ok, I have thought that the cause for the break is that Cakewalk is updating all 2-3 month and Craig is (hopefully not) in a situation to stay safe (Corvid 19 aso.)
Colin Nicholls Posted September 5, 2020 Author Posted September 5, 2020 Sound On Sound is a print magazine and has to strive to stay in print somehow. I get that they have to drop the Techniques column for Cakewalk when it frees up space for advertisers like Studio One and Cubase etc etc. And my rant wasn't directed at MVP @Craig Anderton either. Ads disguised as articles or not, you'd think that whenever DAWs are brought up for comparison, Cakewalk would get mentioned maybe every now and then amongst the other great offerings such as (look, I'm going to do it) Logic, Studio One, Cubase, Digital Performer, Reaper, What-am-I-missing, Tracktion/Waveform, etc etc. Yes even Reaper gets mentioned and as far as I know, the it kicks the llama but doesn't advertise either. I feel that the feature set of Cakewalk - a FREE offering - like the addition of the Arranger - does not even make a paragraph in the NEWS section... oh it looks like they dropped the NEWS section in June 2020. *sigh* ...so apparently my mini-rant wasn't over. Oh well. I still enjoy the magazine.

craigb Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 Now, if I had realized that you had actually already addressed the topic, THAT would have been even better! ?
