Well you can't buy 4PE any more,so it's more of a question of whether it's worth upgrading.

I'm still on 3,but I'll probably go for 6 when it comes out.

I'm not real big into the Producer edition,while I find the additional features nice I think in the long run plug ins and synths from other developers are superior to what's included in the Sonar package.Great all in one solution if you're just starting out though.

There are some cool features in 5PE ... I'm saving to upgrade.

5 has a lot of cool features that 4 didn't...just little things.

1. some nicer soft synths included
2. loads down the CPU noticably less
3. I could go on and on...there used to be a page on the cakewalk website that outlined all the minute differences...they really do add up to a big difference though...I guess it all depends how in depth you are with the program. The more I use it, the more things I find that are badass.

Have both. Sonar 5 wins - hands down for me.
