How to make .song

...assuming you already have Cakewalk project (file), I am not going to teach you how to sing 😏

@Bapu  wanted that possibility long time.  And from today, other can also do that. After several months of development (please don't measure the effort by the size of downloadable), here are the instructions, link to the utility and documentation: https://www.azslow.com/index.php?topic=659.0

For those who don't need .song, there are "side products":

  • all used VST(i)2/3 presets as .fxb/.vstpreset files (natural part of .song archive)
  • tempo map and all midi clips as midi files (generated with "-m" option)

Note that I have not got many bug reports from Bapu, so I guess the utility is buggy at the moment. Without reports, there will be no fixes (I am not going to use it by myself).

PS. in fact the first attempt was .dawproject . But after R&D phase, I have found that "exchange" format is rudimentary, has several logical limitations, badly documented and currently really supported just by one  from two (lol) DAWs which claimed to be "officially supported" (unfortunately not the one in question). So the idea was abandoned.
