#SONAR MP3 ENCODER WONT INSTALL UPGRADE#

I bought a couple of value Soundpack/VSTi's (thought guitars were a little lacking). I liked it so bought a Midi Controller Keyboard. I'm exactly that impulse buyer of MC6T (for $16.99). What's not to like? Ableton and Reaper are alternatives it's true, but if you get X3 on Steam sales, those alternatives are more expensive and less convenient, while offering no better workflow so far as I'm aware. It's on Steam, which is handy (and means for example I could use it on my sister's PC when we visited for a week over Xmas) and the total cost to me to get X3 has been $60. They've also added z3ta+2 and some instrument packs.Īs for 'why buy it' from a consumers viewpoint - it seems to me to be the best value out there for a modern DAW. Once they have sorted out the distribution rights for MC6T and Sonar Basic and Studio, they may as well stick Producer on it too. It makes perfect sense for them to have their entire X3 range on Steam.

Some of those users will in time upgrade to Studio for Melodyne and AudioSnap etc.

Some of these users (like me) will upgrade to Sonar X3 (about another $40). The biggest number of sales by volume will be impulse buyers of MC6T - Steam often has this on $20 sales. It's aimed at the music hobbyist/members of the general public who want to make music on their PCs (and far far more people have access to PCs than Macs of course).

Hmmm.I doubt the Steam release of X3 is aimed at the industry professional.
