In addition, all previously purchased plugins or add-ons that worked with SONAR will work with the new freeware version. All the core features of SONAR Platinum are included, from its analog console-like mixer to the powerful ProChannel effect modules and advanced functionality like multi-touch support, Bluetooth MIDI, etc. It is, essentially, SONAR Platinum without bundled plugins and add-on tools such as the Rapture synthesizer, Melodyne pitch-correction software, and others. Re defender its likely because this is a new exe that hasnt been downloaded many times so it hasnt built what they call trust.BandLab has announced the release of Cakewalk by BandLab, a freeware digital audio workstation based on the previously discontinued SONAR Platinum music production software.Ĭakewalk by Bandlab is almost identical to the flagship SONAR Platinum digital audio workstation, except for not including any third-party add-0ns. The google drive warnings are normal with any exe download from there.

That hasn't happened to me during a download or install in a long time. I was surprised Windows Defender initiated a scan. I did NOT right click and enable administrator rights so I'm not sure why I received the notice but the installer still ran. I was notified I have the current update and the installer closed. I was glad to see the optional applications remain available for selection. After the file scanned, it began the install. I also received a notice Windows Defender was scanning the file. When I ran the installer I received a notice I did not have administrative privileges to run the file. I downloaded anyhow and copied the installer to my desktop. When I clicked on the link I received a notice (from Google Drive) the file can not be previewed and a second notice (from Google Drive) the file can not be scanned for viruses.
