Opening Cakewalk Bundle

Hi. My Windows computer has died and all my SONAR backups are in Cakewalk Bundle files. Since I only have a Mac right now, was wondering if there's a utility available to run on OSX that can open those old bundles.

Thanks for any help.

    There is no utility. Only Sonar can open a Cakewalk bundle file.

    you can try using Bootcamp for MAC to run sonar but that involves a lot of work to simply open up bundle files.
    Your pretty much out of luck on this one. Sorry.

    Thanks for the replies. I had a feeling that would be the answer. I appreciate you taking the time.

    I'm assuming you just want the wav files that are in the bundles?
    Someone may be able to do this for you.
     
    Another thing you could do is download an old demo version of SONAR they are available here and there on the net and put that on any old windows pc laptop or otherwise for example, so you can open the bun files and get at the wav files that way.
     
    er, i think

    The wav files are most important, but I'd like the midi files too. Since my only windows pc may not be worth resurrecting, I may be SOL on that one, until I can justify buying a new one.
