Cakewalk Software & Roland form Alliance - 08/09/03 01:15 PM
I just received an annoucement from Greg Hendershott, founder & CEO of Cakewalk Software (creator's of Sonar), and he states:
"Cakewalk and Roland are working together to realize a shared vision of tightly-integrated hardware/software solutions to make your music-making experience better than ever. You can look forward to news of these products in the near future. At the same time, both companies remain independent. For example, Cakewalk will continue to develop the software-only products that you use today, plus new ones of course.
The second part of the alliance is that Cakewalk is dramatically improving its distribution and marketing outside of North America. Roland, including its subsidiary Edirol, has a powerful worldwide distribution network. Through the alliance, Cakewalk will be able to benefit from this network, and customers in those areas will benefit from excellent product availability and support."
It's going to be interesting to see what develops. - Scott
