Description : The world’s leading DAW SONAR with the full range of SONAR Platinum features resumes operation as Cakewalk by BandLab
BandLab Technologies launched Cakewalk by BandLab, replacing SONAR, the iconic DAW developed by Cakewalk Inc.

The rebuilt DAW includes all of SONAR Platinum’s key premium features, such as the award-winning Skylight user interface, flexible ProChannel modules and a powerful 64-bit audio engine.
Cakewalk by BandLab is a version of SONAR Platinum that does not include some third-party products and content bundles. Existing users who have already purchased packages or individual third-party products and plugins can still use these products in Cakewalk by BandLab.
BandLab Technologies is a collective of world music brands connecting the world of music.
BandLab, the group’s flagship digital product, is a social platform that allows musicians to create music and share the creative process with other musicians and fans. Other well-known brands in this portfolio are Rolling Stone, a leading international voice in pop culture and music since 1967, MONO, an award-winning music company for life products, and Swee Lee, a leading online retailer in Asia and a distributor of musical instruments and pro audio brands.

Mackie Control enhancements, including HUI protocol support, support for alternative parameter labels, and support for ProChannel EQ, Track Compressor, and Bus Compressor.
Improvements to plug-in state loading and presets.
Support for VST2 plug-ins without binary block persistence, which allows Cakewalk to properly restore parameters for such plug-ins when loading projects.
Support for VST3 Program Changes. Cakewalk now supports changing programs for VST3 plug-ins via a new Program change parameter. There is now a Preset value at the end of the automation parameter list that will change plug-in preset values ​​for plug-ins that support it.
Overhaul of plug-in time sync in engine. There has been an overhaul of the engine to improve and optimize time sync with plug-ins. The changes improve the accuracy of time synchronization while seeking on the timeline during playback and while looping. We also addressed known problems with time sync with Melodyne and other time dependent plug-ins that have an internal timeline.
Improved Reset / Panic to clear stuck MIDI notes, and CTRL + click Reset button to force a reload of the audio and MIDI engine.
Support for ‘stop’ and ‘pause’ MCI MIDI events to automatically stop / pause playback.
Improved compatibility with older SONAR WRK files.
Updated ‘Basic’ Lens that provides a cleaner and simplified layout.
Dropout Analytics: Dropouts are now flagged with a reason code (listed in the dropout message) that can be useful in tracking down the cause of dropouts. The online help lists the dropout reason codes and potential preventative action that may be taken.
Behavior changes
When isolating clips in Take lanes during playback, the Now time jumps to the clicked location by default. To automatically jump to the clip start instead, enable the Track view Options> Click Behavior> Left Click Rewinds to Clip Start in Lanes option. This option replaces the previous SHIFT-click behavior.
The Track view Options> Click Behavior> Left Click Sets Now option only sets the now time during playback when using the Smart tool, Comping tool, or Move tool (when clicking whitespace only). All other tools do not set the Now time when clicking in the Clips pane.
The Track view Options> Click Behavior> Transport Seeking Stops Playback option specifies if playback should stop when changing the timeline position during playback.
By default, the Play List no longer prompts to save project changes during playback.
SHIFT + double-clicking a clip no longer hides other tracks.
CTRL + T shortcut is now ‘Insert Audio Track’ instead of ‘Hide tracks not in selection’.
Edit> Paste no longer uses settings from the Edit> Paste Special dialog box. The use the Paste Special settings, go to Edit> Preferences> Customization – Editing and select ‘Use Paste Special Options on Paste’.
SHIFT + Z shortcut is no longer assigned to the Track view View> Auto Track Zoom command by default. The Auto Track Zoom command can be assigned to any shortcut in Edit> Preferences> Customization – Keyboard Shortcuts.
The ‘RTZ’ command has been renamed to ‘Rewind to Landmarks’.
The ‘Go to Beginning (1: 1: 0)’ command has been renamed to ‘Go to Start (RTZ)’.
The ‘Go to Start (RTZ)’ and ‘Go to End’ buttons now accurately seek to project beginning and end, and do not stop playback.
The ‘Go to Start’ transport button uses the CTRL + HOME shortcut.
Optimizations
Improved application startup time especially when many 32-bit plug-ins are present.
Improved efficiency when playing back or looping projects with lots of plug-ins at low latency.
Faster loading of project files containing many plug-ins and synths.
