I just want a page fully dedicated to subscribing to or buying the new Sonar... Please keep me informed. Thx ? Later this year...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many unusual software releases in the market. The Behringer DAW has been in development since 2020,, Bitwig took more than 3 years after the first release announcement.

Yep, in fact this product launch was so incredibly low-key, the majority of the forum members don't even seem to be aware that it ALREADY HAPPENED! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John T Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Well, that's the thing. There's been no active promotional push on it anywhere. The most it's talked about is here, by a long shot, and it's not even talked about that much here. The uptake so far has to be pretty low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John T Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 That's kind of what I mean, though. Existing subscribers don't generate any new money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Kelley Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 (edited) I see no scenario where trying to bully or insult BL into submission is going to work. Sonar is here. If it doesn’t meet your needs there are alternatives. Edited June 9 by Terry Kelley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misha Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 4 hours ago, Terry Kelley said: Sonar is here. If it doesn’t meet your needs there are alternatives. Alternative is Cakewalk, which supposed to be "free" for "decades to come" *See my "Blast from the past post" Even if Sonar will be subscription only, clarity on phasing out Cakewalk by Bandlab should be given. To mark even one "decade" (per letter sent April 2018), technically it should work till April 2028. Will it do that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIM Productions Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Hi everyone, I've been using CBB since it was called Pro Audio 9 and I was a beta tester in the Gibson period, for me Sonar Platinum was a milestone in anticipating the very latest professional technical solutions of the "industry standard" DAW. Perhaps you have read my posts on the surprise regarding the graphics, a matter of taste, but another doubt that I have these days seeing the commercial path that Bandlab is following is that of the lack of clarity.... when you manage to find the page with the pop up for membership, in the features it doesn't even mention Sonar, but the first thing you see is that with Membership, the phone can have 32 tracks instead of 16, this way of marketing is shocking, in my opinion..... I think that Bandlab doesn't remember how many professionals like me use CBB every day for important projects, both production and composition and for third party clients... it seems to be in a shop for young people who approach audio more than anything for podcast....I don't know, maybe it's me who continues to consider Sonar a wonderful and extremely reliable partner, I would like to hear the opinion of Noel, a fundamental part of this company. Sunday thoughts....... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Kelley Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 (edited) Don’t get me wrong. I too am disappointed with BL’s subscription only pricing and being tethered to their servers to work, but I can’t change it. It’s been made clear here on the forum that CbB will be disabled at some point. We weren’t promised free forever and few of us thought it would remain free. And nowhere has any of our bitching and moaning changed any of that. And lord knows I’ve done plenty of that here. Frankly, I am here only to see if they change those policies but I have already switched to another DAW that serves my needs as well as Cakewalk/Sonar. I could come back if it becomes something I want again. I guess I should reword that. I am here to see them finally confirm it will not be available outside of a subscription.
