This is part of our ongoing effort to empower musicians to make and share their music around the world. We are making the software completely free to use to ensure that anyone, regardless of their resources, technology or stage in their career, can have access to the highest level of professional music production tools. The revived DAW includes all core premium features of SONAR Platinum such as the award-winning Skylight user interface, flexible ProChannel modules, and powerful end-to-end 64-bit mix engine.ĬEO of BandLab Technologies, Meng Ru Kuok said, “We are excited to be able to continue development of SONAR in its new guise as Cakewalk by BandLab and have an aggressive feature development roadmap ahead. The new successor to the legendary DAW is available to download for free now at. This highly anticipated product release follows BandLab Technologies’ announcement just last month that it had acquired all of Cakewalk’s IP and certain assets from Gibson Brands. SINGAPORE, 4 APRIL 2018 - Today, BandLab Technologies launched early access to ‘Cakewalk by BandLab’ – replacing SONAR, the iconic DAW developed by Cakewalk Inc. Relaunched as Cakewalk by BandLab, the production software is now a free download for Windows users, and comes with added support for Microsoft’s flagship Surface studio hardware. Since then, the future of the Cakewalk brand, as well as the software itself has been in doubt… until now. Over the years, Cakewalk has turned into a company in its own right, evolving into SONAR, with the company ultimately getting bought out by Singapore-based Bandlab Technologies in February. Right there in the early days of 1987, you could find the Cakewalk sequencer, the grand-daddy of the powerful DAWs you see today. The fact that computer-based music production only really took off in the mid-2000s means it’s easy to forget that music software has existed as long as desktop computers. In the fast moving world of digital audio production, longevity isn’t usually a common feature.
