Bachus....I don't know why Cakewalk is so elusive with a working telephone number.....can't find it anywhere on the net.
I Googled Cakewalk screen shots to try and figure out what it actually is these days. I found my original Cakewalk disc(Home Studio 2001) where I just used it to work on MIDI files.
Can you tell me what this "free" version actually is. I can assume you can edit wave files nowadays. I don't want to dive back into the technology software stuff. Is this "free" package simple enough to work with for basic needs. I can't figure out exactly what it does from the screen shot.....or.....from the Cakewalk description.
I like Cakewalk but back in the old days it was a simple program that filled your needs at the time.

Over the years Cakewalk changed it's name to Sonar and expanded capability greatly especially in audio, audio effects and virtual instruments.
The original "simple" cakewalk is still lurking in there but the options now available by default cover a very wide scope.
Nevertheless you can customize and save "views" of the program to let you concentrate on just the functionality that you use the most. Admittedly this is something I've never got around to.....

That is awesome. I recently bought a 24 bit audio converter that came with free Cubase AI which I absolutely hated. I am going to download Cakewalk and try that instead. I loved Cakewalk back in the 90s so I think this will work great from me.

Well Cakewalk was bought by Roland... After that it was sold Gibson in 2013 Who pulled the plug out of it
Bandlab, the new owner boight the name cakewalk As well as all the sourcecode
This company probably has commercial plans with the product after the free release Like selling content..
