Hi,
I currently own Sonar 4 Producer. It was installed on my old music PC which after 9 years recently gave up the ghost.
Right now I'm waiting for my new music PC to be delivered so I'm was thinking upgrading Sonar might be nice.
Am I correct that right now I can upgrade to X3 Producer for £79? This seems like a great deal...is it a time limited deal?
 
Also (and sorry if this sounds like a dumb question) can I download the upgrade now, then transfer it by a remote drive onto my new music PC when it arrives next week?
 

Yes, according to http://www.store.cakewalk.com/b2cgbp/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=10-CXSP3.00-30E the current promo price for upgrading from any version of SONAR Producer older than X2 is £79.50. Not sure how long the price will remain at this level. After purchasing you may download at any time and transfer the installers to the new machine. Addictive Drums is the exception, it is an online install direct from XLN so the new machine will have to connect to the internet to get it.
 
In addition to the installers download the latest update here http://www.cakewalk.com/S...13361/SONAR-X3e-Update
 

Okay cheers, I'd better snap it up now then - too good to miss at £79.50
Is that a 50% discount of the normal upgrade price?

I could not find the original UK price for the upgrade. The current US price for the upgrade is $99.50, it was originally $199.

Thanks, I suspect it is also a 50% discount

Considering that it's an upgrade from a 10 year old version it's an extra ordinary price. For those that have upgraded every year they would have paid between $1500 and $2000. Quite a bargain you've got for yourself.

Yeah but they would have also had the pleasure of shiny new versions of Sonar during that time.

be prepared to spend some time learning the X way of doing things 
I went from 6 PE to X3 and I still feel as if I have a long ways to go …
X 3 is pretty deep . the more I learn my way around in X3  , the more my mind gets blown in a good way .

That is one benefit of regularly upgrading - the changes can be handled in smaller chunks.
 

Excuse me,
 
Should I unistall first the X3 studio to then install X3 Pro Upgrade?
 
Thank you
