And Fran, by all means promote good software if you find it, (and I actually DO agree that the Mixcraft looks okay, not in the same league as Sonar 8.5, but it is a lot cheaper) after all in a lot of cases thats how we hear about this gear.

But I think it should be in its own thread, or HAS relevance to the original topic posted

In this case it did neither!
