Why no e-mail/message from Cakewalk about my X2 download?

I am downloading the X2 files now... looking forward to try X2 out:)

However, I didn't receive any e-mail or message from Cakewalk when my files were available for download in my account. I did go for the Pre-sale option, and thus I thought that I CW would tell me when I could.

I first found out that X2 was released when Groove 3 sent me an e-mail about their new X2 tutorials. I might have missed any message on Facebook or in the CW blog, however, I still believe that CW should have sent me an e-mail when the downloads where available.

I love X1 and hopefully X2, but think that the customer care/relationship needs improvement. 
I have had a lot of issues with my serials and registrations in my account settings.

    There's something wiggy about the Cakewalk emailman.

    I too, never getting mail from them, even though it's one of the few companies I would like to be spammed by.

    Don't take it personally, just looking around the various threads you will see there are many in the same boat :)

    Go back and "update" your e-mail address in your Cakewalk account, even if its the same e-mail address.  That may help.

    Ditto here.  I've never understood that either.  I've been with Cakewalk every version since the MS-DOS 2.0 version.  I have even written the company and asked them add me to their regular email list.  In all that time I have received very, very few emails from them announcing products or updates, other than the handful of times I've exchanged emails with tech support.  It's not a big deal, but it is very odd in this day of digital communication.

    "(SONAR X2 will be available before the end of September. You will be notified when it's posted to your store account.)" I too never received a notification that the download was available although I receive all of Cakewalk's other promotions.

    Same here. I get all the Cakewalk e-mails, but nothing this time. I saw the Groove 3 announcement as well, which is what made me think X2 might be available.

    Oops - sorry I was mistaken - I actually did get the e-mail. I somehow missed it :( 


    Anyway - downloading now.
