You can still access your old account for Cakewalk if you have one. I just checked this morning and the old account page is still functioning as well as the Cakewalk Command Center. Just download and put in your registration code and you are good to go.
I think the only limitation to the old account is that you need to have created a Cakewalk single sign on account in 2014. The really old Cakewalk store accounts prior to that were migrated to the Cakewalk single sign on system. That is when the Cakewalk store, the Cakewalk Command Center, and the forum began using a single userid and password.
Did you provide your purchase information and registry key to customer support? The SSO process would have missed a lot of folks who didn't monitor/get an email or read the forums. You could easily have also missed the Command Center days, and DP had a few updates to confirm to that.
Going forward, it is recommended to get a large HDD to store downloads on. Not only does it save having to download large files again, but ensures you have a backup copy (which is also good to rollback updates that go foul). The DP download is rather large due to the samples included.
As a workaround, sforzando (free) will play sfz files/samples from DP. If you still have the XP machine, you can transfer those files over, but may need a registry entry for sforzando to locate them automatically (I forget offhand if sforzando can be directed to specific directories). I prefer sforzando since it also shows you which keys are not mapped by default (some DP patches only have a handful of sounds mapped, which makes them hard to find).
This is a great suggestion! If you are still using the same email address that you used at the time of purchase, and you have the purchase receipt, you might be successful pleading your case with support.
Also, if you have an old copy of Sonar Producer 8/8.5 it was shipped on disk with a copy of the Dimension Pro installer. The D-Pro installer is about 3GB in size for the download only version supplied with the Sonar X series.
I received a response they could see my email used to be there, but they did not give me option to download, eventough i told them i have the key. The only answer is that they apologize but cannot help. Feels bad because i have paid for the software, and the only reason i cannot receive a copy of the installer, is that i did not make a new login on 2014.
I know there are some programs that try to "move" an installed program from another pc to new pc, and to my experience they fail always because they cannot do the registry setting correctly. I already tried moving the old dimension pro installation from my xp machine to new windows 10 machine, and it does not work. I gives error that the program is not properly installed.
I never made a backup copy of the DP installer back then, because i always thought i could download a copy from the cakewalk website. Little did i know that they would close down the shop entirely...
I was on my cell earlier, so couldn't provide detail. Sforzando is a free plugin that plays sfz files, and I just checked this. *IF* DP is installed, Sforzando will automatically route to the DP registry entry location and map all of your multisamples (if you click on "Instrument" there will be a "Dimension Pro" entry in that listing with the same layout as DP's browser). However, if you still have the Dimension Pro/Multisamples folder from your XP machine, you can drag/drop the sfz files into Sforzando (or import them from the "Instrument->Import" command in Sforzando), and it will play them. Of course this is more convoluted (and manual), but Sforzando will play the sfz files that were included with DP, which it seems you still have.
Was unable to clone my HHD drive (with installed Dimension Pro, Platinum, etc...), so I had to go with a fresh install of the BandLab Cakewalk software, but...my original install of Dimension Pro, I apparently failed to write down the s/n as the yellow tag on the CD install box is not filled in (ugh). I do still have the email with the registration code (from Nov 8, 2007) but, of course, without the serial number I'm dead in the water as far as Dimension Pro goes. As no one has responded to this thread since 2019, I may continue to be up the proverbial creek. I'll keep hope alive for now : )
If you have migrated your Cakewalk account to the new SSO (Single Sign On) system around 2014, then BandLab should have a record of your account/product registration. Otherwise, no, the former Cakewalk site does not any accept new account registrations since November 17, 2017. -Announcement
Also, if you have login credentials for the legacy Cakewalk site, your product serials and registration codes are still available there, or via Cakewalk Command Center. You can try sup...@bandlab.com for assistance.
A Change Is Gonna Come is the story of more than four decades of enormously influential black music, from the hopeful, angry refrains of the Freedom movement, to the slick pop of Motown; from the disco inferno to the Million Man March; from Woodstock's "Summer of Love" to the war in Vietnam and the race riots that inspired Marvin Gaye to write "What's Going On." Originally published in 1998, A Change Is Gonna Come drew the attention of scholars and general readers alike. This new edition, featuring four new and updated chapters, will reintroduce Werner's seminal study of black music to a new generation of readers.
The African diaspora - a direct result of the transatlantic slave trade and Western colonialism - has generated a wide array of artistic achievements in our century, from blues to reggae, from the paintings of Henry Ossawa Tanner to the video installations of Keith Piper. This brilliant new study of twentieth-century black art is the first to concentrate on the art works themselves and on how these works, created during a period of major social upheaval and transformation, use black culture both as subject and as contextual basis. From musings on "the souls of black folk" in turn-of-the-century painting, sculpture and photography, to questions of racial and cultural identities in performance, media and computer-assisted arts in the 1990s, it draws on the work of hundreds of artists including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, Lois Mailou Jones, Wifredo Lam, Jacob Lawrence, Spike Lee, Robert Mapplethorpe, Faith Ringgold and Gerard Sekoto; biographies of more than 160 key artists provide a unique and valuable art historical resource.
Women artists of the Harlem Renaissance dealt with issues that were unique to both their gender and their race. They experienced racial prejudice, which limited their ability to obtain training and to be taken seriously as working artists. They also encountered prevailing sexism, often an even more serious barrier. Including seventy-two black and white illustrations, this book chronicles the challenges of women artists, who are in some cases unknown to the general public, and places their achievements in the artistic and cultural context of early twentieth-century America. Contributors to this first book on the women artists of the Harlem Renaissance proclaim the legacy of Edmonia Lewis, Meta Vaux Warrick Fuller, Augusta Savage, Selma Burke, Elizabeth Prophet, Lois Maillou Jones, Elizabeth Catlett, and many other painters, sculptors, and printmakers. In a time of more rigid gender roles, women artists faced the added struggle of raising families and attempting to gain support and encouragement from their often-reluctant spouses in order to pursue their art. They also confronted the challenge of convincing their fellow male artists that they, too, should be seen as important contributors to the artistic innovation of the era.
Prior to 1967 fewer than a dozen museum exhibitions had featured the work of African American artists. And by the time the civil rights movement reached the American art museum, it had already crested: the first public demonstrations to integrate museums occurred in late 1968, twenty years after the desegregation of the military and fourteen years after the Brown vs. Board of Education decision. In Mounting Frustration Susan E. Cahan investigates the strategies African American artists and museum professionals employed as they wrangled over access to and the direction of New York City's elite museums. Drawing on numerous interviews with artists and analyses of internal museum documents, Cahan gives a detailed and at times surprising picture of the institutional and social forces that both drove and inhibited racial justice in New York's museums. Cahan focuses on high-profile and wildly contested exhibitions that attempted to integrate African American culture and art into museums, each of which ignited debate, dissension, and protest. Cahan shows how aesthetic ideas reflected the underlying structural racism and inequalities that African American artists faced. These inequalities are still felt in America's museums, as many fundamental racial hierarchies remain intact: art by people of color is still often shown in marginal spaces; one-person exhibitions are the preferred method of showing the work of minority artists, as they provide curators a way to avoid engaging with the problems of complicated, interlocking histories; and whiteness is still often viewed as the norm. The ongoing process of integrating museums, Cahan demonstrates, is far broader than overcoming past exclusions.
