LANDR?, whats next? SONGR, MASTRFADR, ARRANGR, MASTRTRACKR, RECORDR?

Why should I give all the pleasure of mastering to a robot? :) no thanks, joke aside, this could be actually pretty awesome if sonar hade this feature builtin, but with mixing/mastering ability, call it MIXTRMASTR! :) it can read the track name or you tag the channels with right name/instrument and every time you play the song all the mastering magic happens in realtime... Needed plugins get added to tracks, eq, compressors, limiters etc etc...you can steer it to what type of engineer work you want...

Since "add track" replaces the socondary time viewer :( , can I somehow still have 2 time viewers at the same time?
I always have one with H:M:S:F and the other one with M:B:T and nice to see both at one glance...

Add Track does not replace the time. If the time option is set to None, there is an "+ Add Track" button. If a time is specified the add track button is reduced to a + to the right of the time.

Are you sure about that?
 

After playing with the header width, the time is the last to go in the header column. I get a + because of the header width used.

You can start using LANDR today inside of SONAR. Just sign up for an account via SONAR to start getting free previews and two low-res MP3s per month (other subscription options available separately starting at $4/month).
 
So we need to pay extra to actually get something useful out of that? Don't mean to whine but no thanks.
 
The bug fixes are very welcome. 
 
EDIT: Okay I noticed "low res" means 192kbps which is decent. Maybe I'll give it a change. I need to do some mastering for next Friday so would be interesting to compare my master (as a newbie to mastering) to the one that a robot made.

Scook and Anderton: oh great, phew, thanks :)

Read the eZine section on LANDR.

Even in case LANDR will stay longer then Gobler...
 
Automatic audio processing with one switch as an option is just "a plug-in". May be smart, may be expensive to develop but still just a (VST FX like) plug-in as "a cloud service" per subscription. Is that a test how good Sonar can be sold as a cloud service? Next step can be put all plug-ins on some farm near Cakewalk with advertisement "you can record/track/mix  from you phone, just steam us your audio inputs and we do our best!"
 
Just joking, but I have thought the whole point to have a DAW is to fine tune all aspects from input till the result. "One knob" audio creation with "One knob" effects applets for iPad/Android are well known, and the result still can be sent to LANDR for "professional automatic mastering". Is that the future?

I have never heard of "LANDR" before, and immediately associated that with "Landry" so hopped over to that site and it is scripted almost identically to the cakewalk.com page (even the same graphic - Newburyoort [sic] announcement). So... what exactly is this "thing"? It comes across as "gimmick" to me.

Read the eZine, then try it out for yourself. It's free to check out

LANDR has three options for different intensities. But again, I'd recommend reading the eZine. LANDR states specifically it's not about replacing traditional mastering engineers, although there are certainly applications where it would do by itself what people need. No one's going to pay a mastering engineer to master their daughter's piano recital   If someone is, PM me
