1. Faceless finance capital mostly always gets its way.
2. It doesn't seem like he's done an absolutely spiffing job of steering the company, in all honesty, regardless of what a nice guy he may or may not be.
3. If I were him I'd be looking for any escape route at all, and would take any offer this 'anonymous group' cared to make. But that's just me.
4. I don't actually care at this point whether he stays or goes, or whether the company survives or not. I think it's a shame for the employees, and of course it's the end of an era for an iconic brand that occupies a place in music history, but so it goes. They're not the first to succumb to the changing landscape of the industry, nor will they be the last...

Please read up about the man. He has an absolutely awful track record and reputation and is the main reason the company is in the state it is in. He is the face of faceless capitalism (see what I did there) , and in my opinion is ultimately responsible for the closing down Cakewalk.
He is also the man that stated the sign of being the best guitar company "is not the quality of guitars they produce but the amount of money the company makes".

Looks like this thread will succumb to the (ever so) changing landscape of the CH.

Looks like you know more than me. Just sounded a bit harsh to wish someone pushed out of their company. Anyway, he's history as far as Cakewalk is concerned. Let's hope Meng and BandLab can do a better job.

From what I have heard, the man probably will ride the company to ruin before he will give up either control or his stock to pay the company debts.

1. It might be a short ride
2. You can't ride if you are pushed off (Control)
He is certainly not a popular man, but I don't think you can blame Gibson for what happened to Cakewalk, I mean they have been loosing/not making any money since pre Roland times right through by all accounts, you really can't expect a Company, be it Gibson, Roland, whoever to keep propping Cakewalk up when they are just loosing money year after year. In the end you got to lay the blame where it deserves to be laid, and that is squarely at the feet of Cakewalk, they are the ones that couldn't make a product that appealed to enough people to make it viable, I mean outside these forums Cakewalk and SONAR have never been very popular, never really had a good name, mainly known for being flaky, buggy, clunky, old, unstable and on and on, that's just how it is regardless of our personal experiences with the product, an individuals personal experience counts for nothing in the face of what the majority of outsiders see, believe, think. It will take an awful lot to turn things around, to get out of the shadow of the Cakewalk/SONAR reputation that is out there.
I don't think the Mattel BandLab takeover thing will last (I give it 2 years tops), but if it does work out, good luck to them. But I think the horse has well and truly bolted, many have moved on, and if you believe what you read here and on other forums, many of them have no intention of returning, they are quite happy in their new crash and trouble free surrounds. You can tell by the forum activity, even after the Mattel BandLab takeover the forums are pretty much like a ghost town.
Roland - Strike One
Gibson - Strike Two
Mattel BandLab - Strike Three ???
