As someone who uses both PC and Mac, an OSX port of Sonar will probably be just as a bad as those old Windows ports of Cubase, Logic or ProTools -- which is the reason why most of us chose Cake in the first place!

Osx is less good for audio than windows , so even if i had a mac , it will be bootcamped !!





I am a Windows Guy, always have been.  MAC looks interesting, but for various reasons I've never gone there.  but this is patently untrue. OSX is so, so, so NOT less good than windows for audio.  :)  Core audio urinates all over WDM, it's not even funny.  There's no reason these days why you HAVE to have a mac,  and probably no reason for Cakewalk to go there either, but it would be an interesting proposition if they did.

If you really want to use a Sonaresque DAW on a Mac, try PreSonus' Studio One v2. I use it on my Mac Book Pro as a mobile DAW. It does lack the ability to work with hardware synths (i.e. no instrument definition capability) though, so I only use it with softsynths, and use Sonar in my studio PC where it's surrounded by my hardware gear.
