    Today the new Sonar is distributed on the sister site...
    downloaded it
    What R2R wrote on their notes:
    0.Uninstall previous versions.
    1.Install.

    What I read on FAQ on the official site (https://www.cakewalk.com/sonar):
    Will installing Cakewalk Sonar overwrite Cakewalk by BandLab?
    No, the two applications install to different locations on your file system,
    so they can coexist on your computer.

    So, I'm curious, having already 2 DAWs: Bandlab and Sonar Platinum on the same PC, what happens if I insatll that new one?
    The R2R advice contradicts to official...

    You can have them all installed simultaneously with no probs. What R2R meant was probably to uninstall any previous versions of the same app you're installing. In the case of Sonar it's most likely unnecessary though, never had to uninstall prior updating, all works good.

    You have to differentiate. The Cakewalk company and the BandLab company. If you want to install Bandlab the latest version, you have to delete the old BandLab. Cakewalk - SONAR Platinum v23.10.0.14 Incl Keygen-R2R (Year 2017)

    I understood nothing... I'm going to install Cakewalk Sonar newest version (I left the official link), not Bandlab

    The company Cakewalk went bankrupt many years ago and Cakewalk disappeared from the market, the company BandLab bought Sonar and since then everything has been called BandLab - Sonar, see further down in the text.

    You meant Cakewalk Sonar but the correct name is BandLab Cakewalk Sonar. Even though the website says Cakewalk Sonar.

    BandLab Cakewalk Sonar v30.11.0.097 Incl Keygen-R2R [02.12.2024]
    Cakewalk - SONAR Platinum v23.10.0.14 Incl Keygen-R2R (Year 2017)

    Here I have copied the original text for you:

    Is Cakewalk Sonar replacing Cakewalk by BandLab?
    Cakewalk Sonar builds and improves on Cakewalk by BandLab, offering advanced technology, effortless workflow, and an interface that amplifies inspiration. However, Cakewalk by BandLab will continue to be free without a subscription requirement. While the software will continue receiving essential maintenance updates, no new feature development is planned as we prioritize advancements in Cakewalk Next and Cakewalk Sonar. Cakewalk by BandLab is available for download here.

    How do I get Cakewalk Sonar?
    Cakewalk Sonar is currently available through BandLab Membership. If you have a BandLab account, you can purchase BandLab Membership here, or learn more about it in the BandLab Membership FAQ.
