Help > Sign In to BandLab / Sign Out from BandLab

Cakewalk needs to be re-activated every 6 months in order to unlock all available features, such as saving and exporting. This normally happens automatically if you are signed in to your BandLab account and connected to the internet.

Sonar supports SSO (Single Sign-On) for activation, which allows you to log in via any service supported by BandLab as your sign-in authority. Google, Facebook, Apple ID, mobile phone and BandLab user/password credentials are currently supported.

SSO is only used for Sonar activation, and under normal circumstances you will only need to sign in once. Sonar will attempt to refresh your activation status silently and automatically on occasion during start up. Use the SSO login as you have done with your BandLab account in the past.
