 Sonar 6 - Are they all this way? December 15, 2008
I'm a big user of Adobe Audition. I used the old Cakewalk for midi and was always very fond of the program. So, I thought I'd try the new Cakewalk (Sonar). I really dislike this program. It's hard to use, hard to configure and is limits what hardware you can use. I'd sell this one and go back to my old cakewalk, however, i've already registered it. Oh well.
 A Must October 11, 2008
I wish i could have got the producer version for this price because it has the PSP vintage warmer($159)But at 40 bucks this is a steal, and your able to update to version 8 for $100. I've been using Cakewalk products since 2000, and they keep getting better. 1 1/2 thumbs up (only cuzz there is no warmer)
Is there such a thing as too much control? July 11, 2007

I was looking for a sequencer application to use with my soft synths and Cakewalk's SONAR 6 won out over Sony's ACID 6, which is still slanted towards working with loops, because that's where it started life.
SONAR 6 comes in a few different flavors, and I settled on the middle choice (Studio), because I didn't want to be at the bottom of the upgrade path. The price is reasonable for the power they give you, but...
Don't expect to dive right into this one without having the manual nearby.
You probably won't be able to kludge your way through SONAR, because just about every feature you work with has options and sub-options, and there must be three different ways to do something easy that should just have one, clear method. Case in point is the metronome - ok, you've got menus and submenus dedicated to metronome control -swell, but it's just too easy to inadvertently turn it off, then spend several minutes tracking down where you went wrong...I'm just trying to keep time, for cripes sake!
It IS highly customizable as a result, and to be fair, the more I work with it the easier things get - but not everyone has the time for option overload.
Plus the look of SONAR is kind of clinical, and it's 2007. You wouldn't see this interface on a MAC.
Propellerhead's Reason 3.0 Propellerhead Reason 3.0 is beautiful and comparatively far more intuitive than SONAR 6, but it's a self contained application that doesn't do plug ins, per se.
So you need to make sure the tool you're considering does what you need it to before you buy, unless you like having a bunch of tools.
