Can you tell me which ones you are mainly interested in? or do you want the lot checked?

miss matron . . . please tell me you're gonna miss Cakewalk too ?

The forums?, yes, especially Software and Deals, SONAR itself?, no not at all, haven't for the past 3 years, all the Cakewalk instruments, Z3TA 2, Rapture, Dim Pro, Rapture Pro should be fine into the future, don't care much for the other plugs, EQ's and Comps etc, I'm good to go, golden

so, any tips for us future presonus studio one users ?
is the grass really greener on the other side ?
(might just get banned on our last night here ?)

This is a tragedy. With this movement, the Gibson brand has lost all credibility. I have been a registered Cakewalk client since Sonar 2. At the beginning of the year I bought a platinum life pass. I think closing the Cakewalk brand is a fraud.People who bought sonar platinum are being robbed of money. What a shame Gibson!!! What a shame!!!

For me it's greener, like there was never anything I missed from SONAR, but if I were to go the other way there would be a lot I would miss from S13. Some people like chocolate ice cream and some like vanilla, others like . . . . .
 
Depends on what you do I guess, a lot of people will have a quick look at something and say it sucks, doesn't make much sense to me, trying something for a couple of hours or a whole day and trying to compare that experience to something they have used for years. You got to dig in and give whatever it is a good try, because familiarity will tend to win out if you don't, and familiarity takes time. I don't care who makes what, I'll choose whats best for me, I have no allegiance to a Company or a Brand, something better will always come along in the end, and to not go with something you think/know is better because of nostalgia, familiarity, some misguided loyalty (I mean it's only a Company, a peice of Software, not talking about Cakewalk or SONAR, but in general) is foolishness. Stay with what you think is the best for you, what works best for you.  SONAR will keep trucking until it doesn't, you can stay with it until you are forced to go elsewhere, or you can plan a preemptive strike, demo demo demo, only you can find out if something suits you, is better for you
 
[edit] My needs are different to yours, which are different to anothers, which are different to anothers . . . . it's all relative

It would be nice if Cakewalk users boycotted Gibson from here on out, to give them some extra help easing into that grave they've so capably dug for their brand.

I agree. Been here since CWPA 6-late 80's, early 90's I guess, who knows. 

Lifetime upgrades and Anderton bouncing were the writing on the walls....
