I gave a humble hundy brutha.
 
Seriously, I had an endorsement previously but this new company gave it to all of us for free. I support that.
 

Noel is forever bro. ;)

I am sitting here listening to my current project in Cakewalk, the new name for SONAR, and it sounds frikkin' dope because I make really cool **** in this program.
 
I was so sad when it looked like this software would go away.
 
Of course I donated!

It will be interesting to see how many people who said they'd be willing to pay to keep Sonar going will do so now that there's an option to do so. 
I'm feeling the need for a mug myself 

 
I did, but got an error. So I clicked again. Another error. Then I got a text from my bank alerting me of possible suspicious activity. I assume my card was being charged in Singapore so they probably put a red flag on it since I haven't been there since 2003. But I verified the Bandlab charge and I was able to send in my tip eventually.
 
Although I was a bit disappointed that I wasn't able to choose my T-shirt or mug style (and much less the t-shirt size) for my $99 tip. But I posted this on the Cakewalk/Sonar Users Group Facebook Page and Meng himself replied to me on the page that a customer service person would be emailing me later regarding the shirt and mug.

Better question would be what have they done to earn it.

Kept the program from dying.

Dude!
 
Thank you for letting me know! 
I emailed them about this and had not gotten a response yet....
 
I think they are waiting for a decent number of orders before they actually "take orders".
 
I think that is kind of ghetto on their behalf but if they follow through,. I'm cool with that.
 
But in the future, Caewalk/Bandlab, if you ask for tip money and offer something for it that involves choosing/options, make sure you provide a way for us to choose those options upon taking our money. Otherwise, it looks very "shady"/VERY unprofessional. Seriously. Come on guys...

I decided to go for the $99 tip for T-shirt and mug. I pressed the radio button choosing the $99 tip for Tshirt and mug.
The system was quick to take my money, I was given no choice over T-shirt style or size or the mug. 

Meng himself told me on the Cakewalk Sonar User Group Facebook page that a Bandlab customer service staffer will get back to you later via email regarding the t-shirt and mug styles.

We should not have had to get this information from you via your inquiry on Facebook but at least they responded and thank you for the information.
 
The people complaining about the free version of SPLAT can kiss my ass but for those of us that tipped to support it, yeah, they need to be more professional with that.
 
 

Hey Lance, I'm very very sorry about that, and appreciate your support and feedback. We've clarified the Thank You message so that it lets the user know that one of our team will contact to confirm size, design if a reward is eligible and it's already in production. We have an FAQ link that will go up on that page too soon.

 Thanks for the link/info, I was wondering if there was an option to say thanks.  I won't be receiving a coffee mug but I sure got a great deal on a classic DAW.
