The Cakewalk company is known for the professional DAW Sonar for Windows and the sound generators Rapture Pro and Z3TA+ 2. Cakewalk was taken over by Roland in 2008 and then by Gibson in 2013. Although there have always been diligent updates and Sonar can easily keep up with top dogs like Logic and Cubase, Gibson’s announcement is quite unexpected. In addition, Cakewalk had only recently released the Momentum app and also introduced the subscription payment model.
