What about X3 Producer owners? Will they no longer be able to upgrade?


Any customer can upgrade at any time, but starting May 1, 2017 we'll no longer offer special discounts to customers on older versions of SONAR, including X3 Producer.


Silly me. My last upgrade was to X3 Producer. I promised myself in the future, I would only upgrade if there were improvements to SV or something like chord track were implemented. There weren't and I didn't. So, as of May 1st, if those features would finally arrive, I would have to pay full price. At least I know where I stand.

I need clarification because I'm not so sure that the Shop is showing me the correct prices.
 
First off, I rented to own Sonar Platinum when the membership model first started. A year later, I paid for a whole year in a one-time-payment. So I own Sonar Platinum. But the shop is telling me that if I want to continue my membership, I have to pay full price for either the one time payment ($499) or monthly ($49.99).

Is this correct? This is a very wild jump if it is.....

Saying the same for me... My membership lapsed in Feb.

250 $ for a year? I'm sorry, but my trip with Sonar is over.

Actually, no. Aside from Cakewalk saying specials would be offered from time to time, if you skip a year (remember, the software keeps working, this isn't a subscription) your cost goes down to $125 a year. 
 
It's all about choice. If there's some spectacular feature you absolutely have to have right now, you'll pay the full price. If you wait for a special, you'll pay less. If you want for a year, you'll pay even less.
