I've been using Cakewalk /SONAR for 20 years in the music department I run in the UK and I love it. Since SONAR X1 was discontinued I looked for a replacement commercial program for ages, thinking we would need to eventually switch. I can't find anything that suits my needs as well as SONAR X1 however and we are still using it.
But as it will probably at some point stop working I thought we will need to switch eventually - so recently I thought, why not switch to Cakewalk by bandlab, which I have on my home computer. So we trialled this at school and everything works well EXCEPT - I can't save the files! When you go to Save or Save As something very weird happens where it creates a new folder as soon as you start typing and then won't let you save in that folder.
Can anybody help / give some tips for my IT guys at school (who are great) as to whether we can sort this? Is Cakewalk set up so that it won't run in a network environment?
