We set up an alternate download area if you guys are all stepping on eachother's feet :)
Full download instructions/details here: http://www.cakewalk.com/x2install
Should everyone have their downloads/serials in their accounts by now? I bought the X1 upgrade last week from Sweetwater, registered it, and still don't see anything for X2 in my account.
Same Here. Purchased the upgrade from Cakewalk. Registered the serial number and received the registration code for X1 Unfortunately no serial number for X2. I guess we'll have to wait till the dust settles

These downloads are only for people who participated in the pre-sale. Free upgrades will be fulfilled later this month when SONAR X2 goes on sale to the general public.

Funkybot,
If you purchased "X2" directly from the Cakewalk Store as part of the Pre-Sale promotion, then you should already have your serial numbers & downloads.
If you purchased "X1" prior to the Pre-Sale as part of the "Buy X1 get X2 Free" promotion your downloads will be available at a later time. If you purchased X1 through a retailer or the Cakewalk store starting August 1st, and registered, you'll be eligible for the free upgrade to X2 as well. The process for these folks will be that they "purchase" X2 for free through the online store.
jma,
You have a few email addresses on file. Try your @verizon email... it seems to let you in w/ that one.

So Andrew let me understand you on this. You ensure the sale of a new product by enticing us to buy a product that is being discontinued anyway under the guise that we get the X2 uprgrade free and then we have to wait til "Later in the month" to receive the upgrade because we did not participate in the pre-sale. Didn't we participate in the Pre-pre-sale???

Well if Bapu was the first to DL it will be interesting to see who posts that they were the first to install with screen shots to boot!

These orders are fulfilled in different way and only people who participated in the pre-sale are getting them now. That's what we told customers when we announced the pre-sale. SONAR X2 download will be available for sale on the store at a later date. This applies to the free upgrades as well. Please be patient, it will happen soon enough.

Ok, I bought an X1 Producer upgrade (came from 7.0 Producer) from Sweetwater earlier this month and registered it 9/12 so I guess I fall into the category of having to "purchase" X2 for free through the online store when available. I'm guessing I'll receive an email with instructions once it's ready? Or am I in the "Buy X1 get X2 Free" group? It's a bit confusing.

Geno - If you buy a new car with terms at the time of purchase that say "no down payment for 30 days", and your neighbor bought a car a week earlier from the same dealership when the terms were "free trip to vegas", would you expect to get both the trip to vegas and the no down payment for 30 days - these aren't cumulative. Everything depends on the deal you signed on for at the time of purchase. In your other post where you pasted in the terms it said you would be able to download X2 before the end of September. If October 1 rolls around and you haven't got your link, I would say it's time to launch a tirade. I know how frustrating this can be honestly, and Cake needs to do a better job of communicating their many deals and their terms - but sometimes it seems they just can't win. Somebody is always going to be p^&&*d at them no matter what. My guess is (based on some of their discussions during the presale) that they are going to start providing the general links in a day or so - so what's the big deal? Peace! (On Edit - I see (while I was posting) you are cool with the explanation so I really didn't mean to poke a fire and get things stirred up again)

If you registered, you'll get an email with instructions on how to get the free SONAR X2 download. You definitely qualify.

I understand. I would be anxious too but we do need to fulfill these like we do a store purchase. Except you won't have to pay.

I just came in from an afternoon out and about to find a nice surprise waiting for me. Luckily I have to make some dinner for the family which will probably take about as long as the downloads... something to look forward to tonight!
Waiting for reports from early installers...
