This version 5 is really cool.
I am a long time user of Cakewalk. (Cakewalk pro audio).
Since I sonar, I stand not me either.

At the unstable, no problem when you have everything going well.
DVDs, updates and everything.

No incompabilits with my gear (adda2000).

General configuration easy (when you know the previous versions of Sonar)

Manuel clear rad.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

My PC eszt a dual core 2.13 Ghz, 300GB of DDSATA, 1GHz DRAM, Hoontech ADDA2000.
Impeccable.
Nickel, plugins big run at the same time ...
As always against a pti chouille latency sound card. I regret that did not develop as a cakewalk in Ableton, the optimization of latency. (In ableton we can "catch up" its latency ...)

It is STABLE!

OVERALL OPINION

Too expensive.
