0 slartabartfast Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 No. SONAR and most other Cakewalk products were licensed only to the original owner, and sale, gift or other transfer is not permitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 chuckebaby Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 The above is correct, there is no transfer of licenses with Cakewalk products but why bother Bandlab is better than Sonar ever was. And Bandlab is free. Sonar Platinum runs on an online authorization using Cakewalk Command center, He would need your Privy details and your Cakewalk Account. this would give him access to all your Privy data along with all your Cakewalk Products. With Sonar kind of a thing of the past now, I would strongly suggest Bandlab. its the same DAW. Minus a few plug ins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not permitted under the terms of the licensing agreement. You can certainly install and run software without a valid license. Will anyone stop you or investigate you or punish you? Probably not. With SONAR there is the issue with activation, so you would need to transfer or share sufficient access to your account to let someone else get it activated. So it is certainly possible to let someone else use your copy of the software, but in any case you are not transferring your license, since that is not permitted, and the new user will not have a licensed copy even if he has a usable copy.

0 slartabartfast Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Agreed. I am pretty USA-centric, and probably should have been more cosmopolitan in my comments. So there is just the activation issue. I think that to do this transfer in the past, you needed to contact Cakewalk support to make the arrangements to set up a new account for the new user. I doubt that is still an option.
