Does anyone in our amazing, Sonar community have a clue as to how many clients are signed up to Cakewalk Sonar ( all versions)  ...be it Subscription ( incl: Lifetime) OR Full Software Purchase (currently active ) .
In other words.....what is the number of public,  financial Stakeholders currently reliant on the continuity of this software ?
Cheers.....................Frank

There was a thread on this forum citing that when Roland sold to Gibson it was around 10 million products sold in one financial year.

WOW!!!!
10 Million is a lot of patrons... Gee Wizz !!!

10 million products sold does not mean 10 million customers not sure what the average product to customer ratio is but I would guess its at least 2 to 1 maybe 3 to 1 which would mean 3 to 5 million customers.

Even if you knew the exact sales figures, of what use would that be? 
 
Cakewalk has ceased trading.

Was only asking a question posed out of historical interest.
Thanks for your particularly ‘polite and helpful reply’...... NOT
Geez !!!

I don't agree. Sonar has a huge user base. The abandonment of the product makes no sense. Even though I have purchased a Studio I've mixer/interface and have started learning Studio 1, I still think there's a good chance that Cakewalk gets adopted.
I had a very bad feeling when they offered lifetime updates. There is something about this whole situation that doesn't pass the smell test.

I doubt if there are millions, But there certainly are thousands judging by the responce Overloud got on their generous offer to unlock Sonar related products. They said they received over a 1,000 e mails in a few days so it was taking a long time to get back to folks. And those 1,000 could only be a small portion of those who were paying attention. My guess is most were not.
