According to the marketing blurbs provided to dealers, Gobbler integration is still a feature:

The Gobbler control bar was dropped because Gobbler dropped its support for their API and did not have a substitute available.

Hi Noel,
 
I could use some interpretation of this. Does this mean no Gobbler integration?  This is not what your marketing blurb says. From Sweetwater - "Whether you need to simply burn a CD or you want to toss your latest tune up to SoundCloud, save it to the cloud via Gobbler, or export video direct to YouTube, Cakewalk SONAR Platinum lets you do it all - without ever leaving the program!"

I truly hope Gobbler integration is still a feature.  

It's not included right now for the reasons Noel mentioned. We'll ask Sweetwater to update that bullet. Our site doesn't mention it.

a new idea for a feature would be to have a path browser that would integrate a tool to allow us to tag a maintenance note onto every folder so we can track what has been done to maintain backups and what work is still needed. An auto update software probably would obsolete this, I do not know if that would be the case as I am not using it at this time but its an idea I think would be of benefit just like the ability to document notes on individual tracks is useful so I would think such a tool for use with a file maintenance record inside each folder to every project and probably inside every vst / vsti folder as well and it would be really cool to have a utility that would track dates on when a dll was installed in a folder as well as keep a running total of every file in the folder with notes for each program in the folder and a list of notes we might want to make so we can create notes on troubles and issues as well as how we solved said issues.

I am surprised this issue has not generated more attention with users. or a more detailed description by CW. Gobbler integration was touted, with good reason, as one of the key updates in X3.  The fact that such integration is missing in the new Sonar is a significant step backward.  Some follow up questions I hope CW can answer are:
 

• Does this in any way affect our ability to use the Gobbler interface to backup Sonar projects?  
• Is this considered a high priority issue to resolve quickly? The two responses from CW so far do not suggest that they consider this is a big deal, despite all the X3 marketing language saying how wonderful Gobbler integration is (was). 
• Does this in any way affect our ability to use X3's integration with Gobbler? It seemed to work ok for me yesterday, so I think not. But if X3 does still have Gobbler integration, how can this new update's lack of integration be a result of a change on the Gobbler end?  Something is not adding up.

Looking forward to CW's responses.

The large print giveth, the small print taketh away. This is why I avoid getting attached to Cake's 3rd party apps. They sell them big time and them drop them.

I rather like Gobbler. It's saved me a ton of money in CDs. I just send the final wave files with Gobbler.
 
I don't really use Gobbler for backing up. I sometimes use it to send projects, but I usually use it to send groups of files.
 
Once Gobbler 2.0 is set up, I'll bet Cakewalk adds a toolbar item. I did like being able to pause Gobbler within the app.
 
I'm one who is actually happy to have Gobbler. I appreciate it and plan to continue being a paid subscriber.
