Current version of Sonar Professional?

Ron Campbell · December 19, 2020

I have Version 21.6 00 Build 25. I'd like to find out what is the latest version, and what is the cost to upgrade to latest version

The company that made SONAR (Cakewalk) was shut down by Gibson in 2017.

BandLab purchased the Cakewalk IP from Gibson a few months later.

Cakewalk by BandLab (CbB) is a free 64bit DAW based on SONAR Platinum.

CbB is actively supported and maintained by BandLab (some of the Cakewalk staff were hired by BandLab when they purchased the software).

It installs as a free upgrade to SONAR Professional.

Once installed both SONAR and CbB will be available and CbB can use all the plug-ins and content bundled with SONAR.

Here are the instructions for installing CbB using BandLab Assistant

Thank you for your reply. So, the upgrade is free? That's a bonus! Not sure what you mean by "purchased the Cakewalk IP" - internet protocol?
