5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good, March 2, 2008

This is a solid product for the home musician. It's the full studio version of Cakewalk 6, as opposed to ProTools, which gives you a limited version with the Mbox (keep in mind though, Cakewalk just upgraded to v.7). It is the ONLY recording software to work well with Windows Vista, which is why I bought it. I have had no problems whatsoever. The audio interface is solidly made as well. Recommended.

I want to tell everyone that this is HARD to work...but really worth it. I could not figure out even how to record one track until I called customer service...I wasted 5 hours on my own. But customer service had me recording in 5 minutes. I plan on calling back every time immediately when I want to do editing or anything new.
