I've used Cakewalk/Sonar since the beginning of time. Instruments were made of dinosaur bones when I first started. It's been perfect for me through the years and still is, but I have been thinking about a question.
Suppose for simplicity, I have several stems - guitar, vocals, bass, drums, etc.
Now, if I bring those into cakewalk and pro tools and then in theory, just say I mixed them the same - same plug in's etc at same settings.
My question is that when those are mixed by the algorithm in the programs themself, is there a noticeable difference in how each program processes the files? Do the mixes end up about the same?
I see lots of things about the operation of the two programs, but never anything kind of breaking it down like in my example. Has anyone done this to give some insight?

I wonder because my vocals sound so crappy (:
