I hope I'm wrong on this because it seemed Cakewalk was headed in a good direction with their development of Sonar.Įnough ranting, I truly hope the Cakewalk product line continues to grow, and that whoever owns it will treat it as a beloved member of their family.

I had just upgraded from Sonar X2 Producer to Sonar X3 Producer, which I now believe might be the last upgrade from the original software team.
To add to my frustration, I recently received an email from Cakewalk asking that qualified people send in applications for the position of Lead Software Developer (what happened to the previous one?). Tascam, as many may recall, had already abandoned the GigaSampler/GigaStudio line and sold it off to Garritan, who likewise seems to have abandoned what was once considered by many to be the de facto standard in Software Sampler libraries(I see no mention of the Giga product on their web site). They have also taken over much of Tascam products and plan to market SONAR as part of the Tascam Professional product line. I'm saddened on several levels because of this acquisition, first because Gibson Brands seemed to abandon certain products they acquired, namely Opcode Vision software, the Oberheim Synthesizer product line, and Music Quest software products, to name a few. More recently, Gibson Brands had acquired Cakewalk from Roland. Just prior to my post, and unknown to me, Greg Hendershott, the CEO and founding developer of Cakewalk had announced he was resigning. At that time Cakewalk was primarily owned by Roland Corp, who was very good about updating Sonar based on feedback from it's user base. I ended my previous post with a brief mention of Cakewalk SONAR X2 Producer as one of the tools I use. This is a continuation, or update, to the post I made over a year ago, regarding various DAW's I use as a composer/sound designer.
