Though it says it does in the description: "ProChannel Console & Tape Emulator"
 
See for yourself: http://www.cakewalk.com/products/sonar/web-trial.aspx
 
I was really hoping to give it a try. Is this an "ooops!"? Or have we TRIAL users been duped?

Hi
 
Yes, that is the case. Wanted to give it a spin too. The demo page does say that it is included, but it isn't. Probably just an oversight. CW can you re-issue the demo file to include it?
 
Tried out the melodyne demo and it does integrate well. Is the essential version good enough for correcting the odd bum note and converting audio to MIDI?
 
The Nomad plugins would have been nice to play with too, but I understand that including them in the demo might allow them to be copied.
 
Does feel like taking a car for a test-drive but being told you can't use the lights or turn right though!

Yes, Melodyne Essential is more than adequate for editing monophonic material. If you have the demo of both versions, I recommend you try both of these features out. The videos on Celemony's site are a very good way to get acquainted with Melodyne.

So the description page has a confirmed "bug" then.
 
They should remove that line so as not to mislead anyone... else.
 
As for Melodyne, I'm DLing it now. With my connection it will only take an hour. ugh!

The Nomad Blue Tubes are LOCKED to Sonar...so copying them would be a waste of time...
They should have included them and had them also time out.

IF they're not giving you the things that make the program "THE PROGRAM", then it's a SAD demo...

+1 The Nomad plug-ins are even locked so you cannot use them in earlier versions of SONAR, so they do not even need to be set to expire.

Besides, the 3rd party plugins is not what makes Sonar. Perhaps those are available as trials from their respective vendors.

There are also trials for some of cakewalk Prochannel plugins.
