If I just wanted to move all my projects from SONAR/CbB for re-mixing only to Reaper, azslow3's reacp.dll is a brilliant tool (Reaper plugin) that transfers everything (or at least it did for me on a few of my most complex projects with both audio and MIDI) by opening a .cwp from within Reaper.
 
Brilliant I say.

HI:) 
 
In the end of November I bought Studio One and Cubase 9.5! I learned to work with Studio One, but worked with SPlat, then I tried to work with Cubase, but I don't like it, I never liked it! Some cool features but that's it, I'm not happy with it:(
 
So then CbB came out am I'm still there, not made just 1 project wether in Studio One nor in Cubase 
 
And that's fine like it is! I have CbB and the best of all AZCtrl + BCR2000, a very good team!

For me I'm doing all new projects in Studio One Pro V4 (to infinity and beyond).
I have two or three unfinished projects still in CbB that will be finished there. After that I'm not likely to start any new projects in CbB unless a collaborator actually gives me a full project in a .cwb or zip file.
 
I'm not down on CbB for any reason I just now prefer to work in Studio One Pro.
 

Last Autumn I took advantage of the S1 Crossgrade. what is a nice software so far. But I realized, SPLAT can do so much more, a perfect toolbox for every situation. So much things, S1 doesn't have (Sysex, Playlists, Matrix, Staff View, Theme editor, 5.1, punch markers and so on . . . . ) And Sonar has so much little Details to ease your workflow, I really like that. It looks good, it feels good, so I decided to stay with SPLAT as long as possible. And then came Bandlab. So, I'm a happy CbB User, hoping for the reincarnation of rapture pro f.e. and curious about the future plans of bandlab

I often work/-ed with different DAWs, even for the same song. Sometimes a synth or another plugin is bound to a DAW and I record a wave file with it for a song and transfer it into Sonar/CbB for the mix. Or I record the vocals or a guitar on my old hardware recorders. I split a song recording anyway into several projects: Basic arrangement, recording VSTi's, recording lead vocals, treating vocals, ..., mixing, mastering. The result of each project are one or more wave files that I use in the other projects. Like that the projects are much lighter (no dropouts, no crashes) and I have natural backups of my work (the wave files).

To which I'd add that premixes are your friend. You can mix down a song in CbB, and then bring the premix into another DAW so you can use instruments locked to it or features not in CbB. Then you can render what you did in the other DAW, and bring it back into CbB.
 
Of course the reverse is also true - start a project in one DAW, then export the WAVs and use CbB for the ProChannel, upsampling, Mix Recall, etc.

punch markers and so on . . . . ) 

I'm not sure what you mean, I can set a punch range in SO4P.

Hi,
I have S1 3.5. There are Loop markers but no dedicated Punch markers in S1 like Sonar has. Sure, you can set a punch range with loop markers and Autopunch on. To me the punch markers in Sonar are much better, more flexible. No big deal, but a little thing that counts for me.
 
cheers :)

Agreed.  It's time to move on.  Well, I did, actually, and the studio is still in boxes, but when I'm settled again SO will be center stage.
 
I reserve the right to use SPlat of course, and to check in on this community from time to time, but like I said, the time has come to make a change.

Nearly one year on and here's the situation for me... Up until last November I was happily productive in Splat. Then the disaster struck and I got S1 and Samplitude in the special offers that came up and tried out Reaper. I didn't get on with S1 partly because it lacked some of the deeper features I need. I didn't like Reaper. Samplitude was great and easily as good as Splat if not better in some ways, but I still had an affinity with Sonar after all those years. When CbB came along I was very excited and grabbed it. Now I am in a state of chaos. I never know which DAW to launch when I am feeling inspired and I have projects in progress in virtually all my DAWs, well in CbB, Samplitude, S1 and FL Studio (which I have had for many years also). That's a bad way to be! I think psychologically it's a case of I paid good money for them so I must use them and get my money's worth out of them. I haven't updated to S1 4 and don't think I will. But I am torn between Samplitude and Cake. Samplitude fits in really well with my studio setup. It has a brilliant, deep controller editor where you can change the functions of all your controller buttons, knobs etc. to work with the DAW any way you want which means any controller you use can work exactly how you want it to - all DAWs should have this instead of just presets for a limited number of supported controllers. Meanwhile, I still have this infinity with Cakewalk, and now the initial excitement of BL's acquisition of it has worn off a bit, I am feeling a bit unsettled about moving forward with Cake again. The memories of getting my fingers burned last time are still fresh - twice shy etc. The regular updates have been good and it seems like there's a plan, but everything still seems to be up in the air and a bit uncertain still.
