Question about subscription policy and prices


Recommended Posts

I've just installed Cakewalk Sonar. There were 3 subscription options: 3-day-trial, monthly payment, and yearly payment with a discount.

I have chosen the 3-day-trial and entered my PayPal account data. Once the 3-days expire, how can I move to the one year subscription? I do not see any option at my membership page.

Where is the online public information of the prices? I cannot find it.

At my subscription page it says: "Price after: $14.95 + tax". How can I know how the final price? I do not live in the USA, I don't know how much is the tax or if I have to pay it.

Will I be able to use Cakewalk Bandlab at both my desktop and my laptop?

I've heard that there is a promotion for "brand new users". Is there any promotion for long-time users? I have been continuously using Cakewalk since the Twelve Tone MIDI sequencer for MS-DOS in 1988. Would I get that promotion if I create a new account with another email address? (I have not uploaded any contents to Bandlab, so that doesn't bother me)

Yes, no problem there. I am running Sonar on two systems. 
As to the 3 day trial; IIRC, I agreed to the monthly payment when I started the trial. I have since remained on the monthly plan. Trying to take advantage of one of the discounted yearly plans I was advised to “cancel” my subscription (Sonar continued working just fine, meaning I could save my work) but I could not purchase the yearly until my monthly expired. Well in my case the “offer” expired before my existing monthly, and I missed it (frustrating, but that’s a different discussion).

My advice, and I hope I’m right. Cancel now, Sonar should continue to work (by “work” I mean you can save your projects). Whether or not you will be offered the discounted price after your 3 day expires? That remains a mystery. Keep us in the loop!

Your best bet for questions about the actual purchase point would be to contact support directly through https://help.cakewalk.com/

You'll be able to use both Sonar and CbB if you're a subscriber and Sonar will work fine on both of your machines.
