United Usefull Cakewalk Links...

[James Argo]

Tired of giving the same old links over and over again ?

Tired of hitting the "search" button to find posted link you saw ?

Well... I'm not
But think of how it will become more efficient to collect them in one thread, so whenever we need the links, we can reduce seeking time If you have any *realy* usefull links, post here. Give some brief description as necessary if it has (for hints)...

Some rules :

• Legal please... no links to ilegal (crack, warez, etc.) page in any kind...
• It contains some good and usefull info / tips / tricks/ articles / files / etc. related to ANY version of Cakewalk... offcourse!!
• New ones ? GREAT !!! Old ones ? just post them !!
• Do not post link to site that already posted above it.
• No spam... any attempt will be deleted immediately...
• Do not post your cakewalk made mp3 to review here... we got the Clinic for that purpose
• Cakewalk forumist = helpfull = smart = know how to make it smooth...
• Alchuck is right...
• I'm cute...
• Behave... No harsh / fight... eg. Dachay may skip console view tips & tricks, while moskus may skip SB Live!'s...
• ...try not to talk about hair
• ...that's all for now, folks. I'll add / edit as necessary later!

Let's do it
