You will be sent a confirmation email you click the link and your good to go.
If you don't see the email check your spam box. If it's not there contact Band lab right away. 
Then you'l get a "Welcome to Bandlab" email
You can the log in and set up your profile and picture.

Haven't yet. Their help section is really sparse, could someone who's signed up tell me what their privacy settings are like? Can you block all messaging by default? Hide your profile? I only care about the Cakewalk software they're inheriting, not the Facebook-like system it's going to be folded into.

This is pure speculation on my part, but it's likely that Cakewalk's server data will be moved to and consolidated into a new host, one of BandLab's choosing. That would include the customer database, the download cache, the authorization software, code projects, and this forum. So yeah, if you want your personal presence to make that move along with everything else, it's a good idea to establish an account with BandLab.
 
They may also need to import some of that data into other databases, in which case your email address is your unique identifier that'll make it possible to correlate old and new data. So you'll want to use the same email address as in your Cakewalk account. Although unnecessary, it's a good idea to use your same forum handle as well, just so we'll all know who's who on the other side.
 
Plus you don't want some joker registering over there under your name. Not that I'm suggesting there are any jokers here.


How dare you call me a Joker? :)

Signed up when I got the email recently, but for the time being that's as far as I'm going until I have a better sense of how they respect intellectual property rights. Besides, I do classical music. Nobody's going to "follow" me anyway.

I think I signed up.  I really don't know.  I just went to BandLab and created an account using the same email address as I have been using for my Cakewalk Sonar account.  Seems like there is nothing on Bandlab that appeals to me.  Hopefully I've done the right thing to get my account to receive my info from Cakewalk when they do the data transfer.

I signed up after getting the message. I haven't really had time to explore it much since signing up.

Yes I signed up as well. I've never collaborated with anyone before and I'm intrigued by the possibilities. TBH the tool set looks pretty minimal to me too, but I'm willing to give them a chance. After all, they bought Cakewalk IP for a reason, right?

I am also curious about the collab feature.
FYI - I did a quick guitar DI check with the online tool, but the latency was bad. Probably need to spend more time to improve it. It pings from your speaker to you mic.
Also, I listened to some of the Jazz, R n B and Blues tracks and found that many of the songs  would have been better featured in other genre's - I was a bit confused.

Of course, love cakewalk products as I was bewitched when I saw it play back a midi file and the notes getting highlighted as they were played.
