No offence to the Bakers...
 
But that's the worst packaging of a DAW I've ever seen...
could it possibly be any more DULL?

Someone in marketing needs to be dismissed...

Here's to hoping the product is better then the Package..

Interestingly, they also have Studio up there: http://www.gear4music.com/Recording-and-Computers/Sonar-X3-Studio-Cakewalk-Music-Production-Software/VKK
 
Good call in bringing Pro Channel into Studio. Now everyone complaining about too many third-party plugs in Producer has no excuse. Incidentally, last year, Sonar Studio was given way as one of the door prizes one could choose just for attending IMSTA Festa.

The packaging is fine. Nobody is buying sonar because of the color of the box. Well at least I hope not.

If people bought Sonar because of the packaging, nobody would be complaining about X2. That box was beautiful!
