   Yes, it was bundled with some Sound Blaster sound card models. To be   
   precise, the Express version as: Cakewalk Express. With pre Sound Blaster   
   Live! cards, it was Cakewalk Express v3.x - a 16-bit Windows version. With   
   Sound Blaster Live! card, it was Cakewalk Express Gold v6.x - a 32-bit   
   Windows version, but it uses 16-bit installer (use Universal Extractor to   
   extract [i3comp method]).   
      
   IMO, I prefer Cakewalk Express Gold than BandLab one, in terms of   
   dependency, usability, privacy, and resource usage. Though it will require   
   some time to manually set it up properly.
