Produced by Cakewalk, (formerly known as Twelve Tone Systems, Inc.) Cakewalk was the name of their flagship MIDI sequencer, first for DOS and since 1991 for Windows 3.0. Early versions of Cakewalk for DOS (up to 3.0) required the intelligent mode of the MPU-401 card and could not be used with today's clones, while later versions (since 4.0) relied on dumb UART mode only. Cakewalk was renamed Cakewalk Pro at some point, and later into Cakewalk Pro Audio when support for digitized audio was added.
[edit] Features
The most recent version of the product features a piano roll editor, support for limited music notation and a built-in scripting language called CAL (Cakewalk Application Language)[2]. Cakewalk is a predecessor of SONAR which has nearly all of the same features, including support for CAL, currently being the only major DAW on the market supporting a scripting language.
