Well, I AM an owner of Sonar Producer 4, and I received an email from Cakewalk that, as a registered owner, the upgrade price for the full-blown Sonar Producer XI now set at $99 price for download (with a serial number)...an offer I don't think I can refuse! Mac, if you happen to read this, respond to this new upgrade level. I'm thinking you, and some others, have successfully used BIAB with this latest version!?
Also they seem to offer purchasers of Sonar 8.5, with an additional free upgrade to XI Producer edition, thrown in. I've been concentrating on BIAB/RealBand but with the Version XI almost completely "refurbished", I think I'll use them all, going back to using Sonar Producer XI for it's comprehensive also use of audio/midi and other doo-daahs! Wish I could also afford the newest Soundforge, but not now.

I remember, back in 2001, during the "MP3.com" website showcase for musicians, I produced 6 Albums with Sonar, Soundforge, Acid Prod. Used Sony's Soundforge for a lot of finishing and normalizing before the final cuts...but to get Soundforge's latest version..mucho dinero! Maybe I'll celebrate my 77th next month with a new album: "Be Happy--Use a Pacemaker ifn you need one!?"
