classic example of the fact that no matter how you proceed, there will always be someone complaining.  if they don't literally announce every move they make they are "secretive" and we are kept in the dark.  If they drop a clue or update on development they are nagged about exact date.  If they release by exact date and there are bugs and there are always some bugs in every software) then "you should have waited and got it right".  Some people just are not happy if they are not complaining.  When you complain that someone delivered something in the time frame they gave, even if it is towards latter part of range, you seriously need a hobby. or a hug.

Personally I believe I'm quite capable of speaking for myself. Good job Cakewalk, keep up the good work.
 
Regards,

Cakewalk said X3c would release by end of October and X3c was released end of October.. And the problem is..?  Please don't speak on my behalf without checking in with me first! 

Well I will chime in here....
Sonar has been a long process of updates and fixes, and such since ,...?...well since its creation...And I bought in at X1, and paid for 2x with some updates and problems not solved, and then x3b...for more updates....fixes and such...How could it be released with some of these problems as stable?.. or working correctly, if it has to be updated and fixed continually?....Not that I am complaining...as I have done some work with it, although light use...It works for me...as it is, with some issues , probably device driver related ...but if I dive in, and start using the more complex features and plugins and soft synths....Well as we all have read, there are issues with some systems!...and thus the fixes...which I believe should have been R&D out before releasing it as X3....
 
As I have seen this with AVID, and other DAWS...over the years....it cost us users plenty over time.
 
Now...I know Cakewalk means well, and wants to get that fan base up in moral spirits....No DAW is Perfect yet..(cause I bought em all)..and this has been carrying on since PC and Macs have been in service.....When is it going to be rock solid?....The answer my friends, is blowing in the wind...it seems....as no standard stays standard for long....even with devices.
 
So onwards and backwards seems to be the order of the times....Shrubberies and Mead for all....and a wink wink, nudge nudge, Know what I mean, say no more...stands as is.
 
I am still seeing issues posted, that have not been addressed by the patch rendition of X3C, and some stated that still remain unfixed...So I imagine they could have tested and resolved, waited to address more issues, and be late with the promise...But sought to fulfill a promise of time released minimums instead!....Thanks to honesty and valour and ethics...Cakewalk is pretty Good on their word....Blessing and merriment round the table, for the next update path!
 
I hope forgiveness and or good will prevail over our heads, for the continually coming blessings!
 
and my wish for MP3 inclusion for the next "Producer" upgrade paid issue.

Well said!

My complaint is that when I play back my tracks, it sounds almost as if I have played some wrong notes.  If SONAR were any good, it would correct that automatically.
 
The windows in my music room are dirty, and I have been waiting for months for somebody from Cakewalk to show up and clean them.  Nothing!  And you call that service?
 
And my car could use an oil change.  Cakewalk?  Are you listening?
