We'll add a way to turn it off for those who really don't like it for whatever reason. The majority of modern apps have a load status today so it will stay as the default. Its not considered good UX to have any operation that can take more than a few seconds have no status updates.


It is in none that I use??? Mebbe just a bit of a spurious argument to support a less than essential inclusion? IMO there are far more important things to be fixed/added. I have not noticed any specific requests in the wish-lists for Sonar for this specific addition? As it is another company (Waves - perhaps there is some commercial advantage being achieved here??) asking and not a user I guess that means it gets done immediately ahead of more essential fixes?  - (rhetorical question only)

I don't understand some folks. 
Keep doing what you're doing, Cake/BL. I love the current direction. Every month there's been some extra polish that makes me happy I stuck with this platform.
 
People who think there are unlimited developement, testing, and QA resources available to Cake at this point are just dreaming. Dream on! Also, make music! And if you don't like the toast, avert your eyes!

i like it. It allowed me to see just how many instances of Amplitube 4 and Kontakt 5 i was loading. Went in and deleted the unused tracks. Can't see why it would be annoying.

I have no problem with the feature itself. However, I do feel that the silly little one liners make the program seem amateurish. I would prefer it just do it's business and keep it professional. Just my 2 cents.

I like it and have no desire to turn it off if given the option.
It’s very insightful to me.

Same feelings here.

This "feature" is one of those silly things developers do, just because they can. It serves no real purpose, imo, apart from a bit of eye candy and it gets tired very quickly and just adds one more bit of code to be loaded at boot. So yeah, I agree with the OP


Its Cakewalk for chrissakes, you are not supposed to take it seriously.

Hi
I am definitely getting mad with this Bandlab program.
I have Cubase  and purchased It when cakewalk went down.
 
Bandlab worked ok at first, but just recently I have got those script errors and now It will not recognize my first edition Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 drivers.
I now start Bandlab and choose a basic project  and a screen keeps flashing on and off and when I can read In between flashes and audible pip noise, It says focusrite drivers are not recognized.
I managed to get to preferences to check and made sure all my Focusrite driver opions were ticked.
 
Still get a flashing pipping screen and It has crashed on me once  and Microsoft said it Is collection Information.
That is about that
I have uninstalled Bandlab as I am a great believer in ,you get nothing free.
This program is getting worse every update.
I have a latest fast machine and it is rock solid. There is nothing wrong with my computer.
 
Cubase works fine.
 
Anyone like me having grief with this program.
 
 
All the best
John

Sounds like a typical user problem.
Cakewalk/CBB is perfect, most problems such as yours are user related.

When did this start happening?
Was it after an update?
