You know, there's something to that idea.

Form a nonprofit dedicated to providing at-cost access to musical equipment (software, hardware, whatever) to all comers. Maintain a fund to buy up products from other manufacturers.

It wouldn't make the bottom drop out of the market, but it would keep large manufacturers on their toes.

Meanwhile there is a trial version of Cubase 9.5 online, if anyone wants to test DAW alternatives.

I downloaded and installed a demo for Cubase 8.5, and it required that I had a USB e-Licenser. I saw it as a sign to just hold on with Sonar until I can't anymore. I was a little burned up about that. I'd definitely try it if there was no USB e-licenser necessary, but I am not paying $32 to demo a product.

I still use the DOS version of cakewalk today for MIDI file editing.
So to me it will never die. I just know it so well.

Gargamel314 you do not have a ilok?

It would be the best thing in the world if Microsoft picked up Cakewalk as Apple did with Logic. wouldn’t hurt them

The Dongle is to stop people from pirating their software. Keeps the price down and the e licenser is part of the support structure in case of a crash all your purchases are always available to download again. Great company Hi end Very Happy

I don't think Cakewalk used an eliscenser...I've got about 3 versions of Cakewalk and they have a sticker on the DVD case you write your codes down on when you registered it....All my other software uses ilok though...moon

No, Cakewalk doesn't use any of that. In fact, I don't think I've paid full price for it since 1994, the upgrade price was always applicable. I don't have anything that uses ilok
