I tried searching this forum but I did not find what I was looking for, this came from the Cakewalk Questions FAQ, Is this the main forum still, so confused and out of touch nothing new for me lol!
 
I’m an existing or old SONAR user and have questions about my old account or subscription or want a refund.
BandLab Technologies did not acquire the operating company of Cakewalk Inc., only the complete set of intellectual property, patents, trademarks and certain assets necessary or related to the entire Cakewalk product suite.

For users of Cakewalk from before 21st February 2018 – please refer to the original Gibson/Cakewalk announcement FAQ

Yikes well I found this thread after I posted this but what I have yet to find out do I have pay for another lifetime membership under Cakewalk since the old one was under Gibson and Sonar?

Sonar was and always was under Cakewalk. You paid Cakewalk for your lifetime updates.

Ok that makes me feel better

There are no more lifetime memberships.  Cakewalk is no longer operating as a company.
 
BandLab bought the Cakewalk product portfolio and the servers.  Your Sonar products will continue to work and you can use them as long as you like.  The product activation servers will be up and running for the foreseeable future, and you will not have to pay for any crossgrade to BandLabs new DAW, whenever they are able to release one.
