• SONAR
  • Anyone know what happened to Kjaerhus Audio? And what does it mean for VC64 Sonar plugin? (p.3)

Garritan bought Giga off Tascam recently:

I purchased the MPL1 Pro back in 06 and when I moved over to my Win7 64-bit machine tried to re-auth.  Sent email, but no response.  I'm kinda bummed. 

Here's hoping there is some licensing solution....

As in all intellectual property such as software. Someone will inherit or gain rights to the code for those plugins due to standing contracts or rights. New owners will be assigned control. Whether or not the genius behind the invention will continue, is another matter.

Well, whatever the status of the company itself, it's DNS records come back with this in there:

kjaerhusaudio.com IN NS expired-domain-ns50.directnic.com 86400s (1.00:00:00)
kjaerhusaudio.com IN NS expired-domain-ns51.directnic.com 86400s (1.00:00:00)

..dang. Some good stuff from them and they will be missed if in fact gone.

A couple of month ago I put a mail to Torgen asking about 64-bit versions because I was interested in the Gold series plugins and thought of a full bundle.

Never heard from him.

So if not doing any registering things, mail just ****s up, it's something different than a server is down.
 
And now his domain is gone as already mentioned.
 
Kjerhus is gone that's for sure.
 
Hopefully Cake is having a deal coming having bought the lot of his production. It seems to me that it would be an asset to have these under the Cake roof. I would go for some of these plugins for sure.

It's a brutal market. He had some good stuff. I only use a very small number of plugs, but GEQ-7 and GCO-1 are among them. But with people just being so incredibly tight wad'ish and other people just ripping off software with zero thought of the consequences and their being so many plugin companies and most folks not knowing good from bad, he just never seemed to be able to get his stuff enough respect to make it I guess.

I don't think we will ever gonna see any x64bit VC64 Vintage Channel.


End of day, it doesn't matter. I'm pretty sure it will be replaced with new x64bit Cakewalk plugins in the near future."Perhaps" the new SONAR 9 will come sooner what you all expect and it will be packed with all kind of new goodies and GUI upgrades.

Only time will tell!

... Sonar 9... ...and it will be packed with all kind of new goodies and GUI upgrades....


I hope not. We have enough goodies, IMO. I hope they spend a lot of time on professional workflow features and refining the main app. If VC64 dies an ignoble death and fades into the 32-bit limelight, that will be sad indeed, but I definitely don't want Cakewalk to be spending any time on creating a replacement in-house for now. Okay, maybe hire whatever is left of Kjaerhus (if they can find him) to recompile for an x64 version of the plugin, but PLEASE don't divert any important resources from workflow enhancements!

Adding more "goodies" is what got us into this situation in the first place. Fewer goodies, more focus on the main app!

Just my opinion. :)

Agree!  New batch-features and new GUI-upgrade are workflow enhancements. "Perhaps" even an new better console view.
