#CAKEWALK BY BANDLAB REVIEWS UPGRADE#

The fact for my experience is that Cakewalk handles audio better than Ableton, and midi better than Pro Tools and it generally offers a pro level quality in both audio and midi worlds, hitting a sweet spot for my personal workflow. Now that Cakewalk is totally free and regularly updating, a transition to another app sounds to me insane. From time to time I’ve tried and appreciated other DAWS but never found myself thinking of making a transition. I started with Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 when i was a little kid, continued with Cakewalk Sonar and still use Cakewalk by Bandlab as a professional musician and producer.

The current devs seem to be listening to the community. Plus, Cakewalk has very frequent quality of life updates. It was well worth the money then and it's crazy that it's free now.

#CAKEWALK BY BANDLAB REVIEWS UPGRADE#

I've bought the upgrade every year since version 2 XL up to and including Sonar Platinum until it went free as Cakewalk by BandLab. I love trying and finding new and better software and I've yet to find anything that works better for me than Cakewalk. I've been using Cakewalk Sonar since 2004 and I've been experimenting with other DAWs for a very long time. I do some work in a studio that only uses Pro Tools and I find it feels backwards and unintuitive but I know enough to call my self Pro Tools proficient. I colab with a few other people so I often work with other DAWs. I feel like I don't have to fight with it to make it do what I want.

I have Presonus Studio One 4, Ableton Live, Pro Tools 11, Reaper, Logic Pro X, LUNA, Ive tried Cubase but I down't own it, and Cakewalk.Ĭakewalk is the only DAW that doesn't annoy me.
