Happy 20th to Cakewalk from Gearwire. We were happy to recieve a note from our friends in Boston keying us in on a special offer they are (have been) running between April 1st and June 30th. Along with the purchase of Sonar 6 Studio Edition they are offering the Musician's Toolbox IV suite of softwarefor free.

Now I remember back to Musician's Toolbox II which came free with an early version of Sonar (or even late Pro Audio). It really wasn't more than a few folders of loops and some extra sample content. This time around it appears as though the free offer is a very nice edition to there flagship product. According to the message the package "enhances the SONAR 6 experience, with the perfect tools for every project":

• Create patterns and grooves with Kinetic 2
• Dimension LE adds over 400 expressive instrument sounds to your projects
• Get drag-and-drop sampling with Kinetic 2's DropZone sampler
• Expand your audio palate with new effect plug-ins
• Author CDs and convert your music with Pyro 5 (and included MP3 encoder)
