Audio interface advice
This is one thing I will miss when the forums go down.
There has always been great information here about hardware and drivers.

No, I don't need a recommendation right now. I was just commenting on how good the interface advice has been here. Maybe I should have posted in another forum section.
I hope a lot of you will consider going to the forums mentioned above and keep in touch.

Don't forget about these:
http://beyondcakewalk.com/forum/index.php
and
http://sonarmods.com./sonarmods/forum2017/
Yeah, ive checked out both of these alternative forums, and I'm confused, the layout is messy compared to this awesome forum
Well, you gotta cut them some slack... they came through on the spot when all the **** went down and I appreciate their efforts providing us with alternatives so quickly... ya never know when you will wake up and this forum will be gone(or at least only available on the wayback machine website)

My guess is whenever the bill comes for the service of using the web page and servers falls on someones desk to be paid will decide the fate of our beloved forum. If the accountants desk is at Cakewalk in Boston, there will be no body there and no money coming in to pay the bill. If it falls on a desk at Gibson, the accountant might just pay it not knowing or caring what it's for. We might be forgotten and remain up and running for a long while yet.
And the rumor is there are still 3 things that might happen to Cakewalk:
1: Sold to a new owner - most likely I think
2: Re organized, budget slashed and carry on under same roof- not likely
3: Scrapped and forgotten by the business world. 2nd most likely.

I'd rank them as #3, then #1, and finaly #2 as likely in occurrence. If #1 was even a remote option, Gibson and Cakewalk would have put it out there as a plan going forward to stall customers from leaving. Dan

The Name Cakewalk has some value, even if every baker is gone and the code is old. Not much. And, of course, if Gibson goes down all the code will be available for sale by the bankruptcy court.

Cakewalk is probably worth more to Gibson as a write-off than a sale to another buyer. Sadly, I think it'll go no where.

Having participated in several business acquisitions in the past, the basic method for valuing a business is essentially net assets (after liabilities) and/or, roughly, 5 times earnings (net) using an average over the last five years. If Cakewalk was losing money since Roland owned them, that doesn't leave much value is the eyes of a prospective buyer. It is unfortunate, but white knight investors are very rare. We don't know how much debt Cakewalk has incurred, and much of it may be owed to Gibson (on paper). I believe it will be tough to put together a deal that would be good for both an investor as well as Gibson. We can always hope, and if Sonar is resurrected in the future, I'll take a look at it.
