SONAR was my first DAW when I was like 15. I eventually "graduated" to Pro Tools when I was running real recording sessions later in my 20s, but Cakewalk absolutely opened the door for me. Sad to see them go, especially since I have a few friends in Boston who work there.
It saddens me to see this happen, as it is not just Sonar, but also Rapture Pro (Dimension Pro) and Z3ta+ that will cease development. I do not think anyone at Cakewalk saw this coming, as they were still celebrating their 30th anniversary and were really improving in the last 2 years and especially last few months. I hope another party steps in and acquires them, as nothing good can come from staying at Gibson... they have called Opcode before and Deckadance (under the Stanton brand).
