General

There are two main ways for a company to best its competitors: lowering their prices or upping their options. Cakewalk - now owned by Gibson® - has always scored well on both accounts, and their Sonar Artist production software is no exception. It's the ultimate cost-efficient solution for anyone who wants to create their own high-quality music productions. The package offers features that old-fashioned professional studios were only able to dream about. With a virtually unlimited number of MIDI and audio tracks, as well as 11 virtual synthesizers and 27 virtual audio effects, Sonar Artist will have you off to a flying start.

Characteristics of the Cakewalk Sonar Artist production software

This 'modest' version of the Cakewalk software carries the tag 'Artist' as not all musicians - no matter how talented - are cut out to be studio engineers. Cakewalk Sonar Artist is so user-friendly, however, that anyone can easily find their way around its clear interface and enjoy its pleasant workflow. That may not sound like a spectacular feat, but it certainly is for a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation). The Artist package supports all common plugin formats, including VST3, which means you'll be able to work with virtual instruments from third parties.

SONAR membership and social media

Purchase the Cakewalk Sonar Artist package and you also get a 12-month SONAR membership. Not only will you be automatically informed of updates and new presets during this period, you're entitled to extensive support as well. After twelve months it's up to you to decide whether you want to prolong your subscription. Even if you don't, the updates are yours to keep. Your internet connection is more than just a means of getting your membership benefits, however. Sonar makes it quite easy to share your productions online, via websites like YouTube and SoundCloud. You could be the latest internet sensation - just wait until your followers find out what incredible things you can do with Cakewalk!

Sonar is prettig programma om mee te werken. Kost inspanning alles uit te vinden, maar dit geldt in mijn ervaring voor de meeste audio bewerkingsprogrammas. Sonar werkt lekker zodra je weet hoe:)

hmm.... op 24 Maart 2015 de factuur betaald (bij het bestellen zou het product zou op voorraad zijn). Ik samen met dit product ook een set luisprekers besteld. De luidsprekers zijn geleverd, Cakewalk nog niet. Ik heb mij bij de helpdesk gemeld met vraag waartom Cakewalk niet geleverd was. Vandaag kreeg ik als antwoord "...De leverancier kan dit product alleen pas leveren op 31 maart....". Ik moet dus meer dan een week wachten voordat ik mijn setup af kan maken. Vandaag wordt met droge ogen op de productpagina van Cakewalk vermeld dat wanneer voor 22:00 uur besteld is, het product de volgende dag geleverd wordt. Ik denk dat dit moet zijn: Vandaag besteld, niet eerder dan over een week geleverd.
De hardware die ik in het verleden heb besteld werdt netjes op tijd geleverd. Ik woon een klein uur rijden van musicstore in keulen. Misschien moet ik mijn software in het vervolg daar kopen, dan heb ik het met een uurtje in huis en hoef ik er niet achteraan te lopen.
