    MTC with song position in Sonar 2.2

    Is it possible for Sonar 2.2 to output MTC. Not just tempo but measure:beat:tick or song position. I have a Tascam DM24 with really great automation (I know, sonar can do this too) but it's not really usable with Sonar that I can tell. I can use smpte and make sonar the slave but in past...

    Serial HDDRAID, 875 chipset and my DAW

    I am building a new DAW for my studio. I am using a MSI 875p NEO mobo. Part of the 875 chipset is RAID support on the northbridge meaning that the raid pathway does not use the PCI bus. My question: will RAID (striped) be an advantage regarding digital audio? I am planning to use the RAID as...

    I'm trying to ID a mic I saw at a concert...

    I don't have a photo at the moment but I am wondering if there is a mic gallery somewhere online. My friend took a bunch of photos but I don't have any to post yet. If someone knows it would be helpful. It looked kind of like a AKG 414 but I know it wasn't. It was a little square with a hinged...

    24 bit takes a bite out of my HDD

    and it wont let go!!! I am happily enjoying multitrack recording at 44.1/24 bits. However it consumes disk space very quickly. Normally the way I work is to just let the Sonar record while my band rehearses. At the end I check what worked and what didn't. I have an 80 gig drive for recording...

    How to fast forward with Generic COntrol Surface.

    I am nearly at a zenith of my recording setup. I have a DM24 and a MOTU 2408 all being served by Sonar 2.2. Things are working and sound better all the time. I have a Generic Control Surface configuration that allows nearly full transport control. I can PLAY, STOP, RECORD, JOG FW & BK, and...

    Who uses sonar with a Digital mixer?

    I just bought a tascam DM24 as a center piece for my studio and I am curious if many sonar users are also digital mixer users too. I am having a devil of a time getting sonar to be anything but a passive client in a relationship with the DM24. I did have the transport controls working from the...

    Anyone use Tascam DM24 with sonar 2.2? As a Control Surface?

    I am using both and would like to find out more about getting them to work together rather than just as independant widgets. I found a DLL from a tascam user to make the thing a control surface. It does allow me to select it from within sonar. This stuff is new to me and I am rediculously busy...

    way to scoll clips pane with Keyboard in snr2?

    I have started using Sonar 2.2 (from pa9) exclusively at work now and things are getting smoother but I have one thing that I just can't get around. The wave editing view is now a zoomed version of the track view and there is no way to scroll forward and back with the keyboard. I have to use...

    console questions from a desk dummy...

    Okay, A few months ago I was in and out of the studio building forum and found some excellent advice on getting my space together. Now that I've got it to the point that we are making some good music I am ready to move on to the next step: recording. My goal is to have a nice project...

    Insuring a studio

    Now that I have my space in a usable state I am wondering how to insure myself against fire, theft and other such tagic mishaps. My problem is that I'm not really using this space as a primary business location (I teach guitar) but I perform some tasks related to my business. I also rehearse my...

    Here is a pic of the space...

    ...I have been working on. A couple of months ago I was constantly on this site getting ideas and advice. Here is the main area where we play. We still need to bring in the PA and I have to set up my computer system but it's finally usable. I will post more from different angles when the room is...

    Holy Moly it works!!!

    I have posted here about my studio project and how to control the sound from disturbing my neighbors. I have a space in an industrial area but directly north of my space is a residential area. I decided that I could not afford true soundproofing but that I would try to control the sound from...

    Unexpected Surprise, Fletcher Christianson on board.

    I have been cranking away on my studio/rehearsal space for nearly a month now and things are getting close to being done. So far the space has not given me any big headaches or problems. Ironically I have a problem with a band mate that is beside himself because he thinks I'm building an echo...

    Drywall is up need some guidance on finishing...

    Less a few little cuts the drywall is installed. I am exhausted from climbing my ladders for nights on end. What should I use for sealing the joints? Honestly, I would like to do as little as possible to get it finished. I used resilient channel and I think I need to use something flexible but...

    RC1+5/8 dw or 5/8+1/2 on the ceiling?

    My walls are floated with rc1 and I have only to do the ceiling. The problem is that it's large and high: 9' 7" on the low end and 11' 4" on the high side, 900 sq ft. One issue besides the size and height is that fact that there are 3 sprinkler pipes that extend into the room. I have to put...

    Materials application

    I am getting pretty far into my studio project and I should emphasize that I am a guitar/computer guy not a contractor before I ask my questions. I take it that when installing RC1 you mount the RC1 horizontally as well as the drywall. Is this correct? What is the deal with accoustical...

    sound blocking not proofing

    I have finally been able to realize a nice space at a decent rate in an industrially zoned area. It is fairly large @ 1100 sq. ft. with 9'6" ceilings at the bottom of the 12 joists. My problem is that the north wall borders a residential area. The wall is about 3'6" below grade (concrete...

    Sonar 2 xl - plugins or accessory software???

    I am looking for a good set of plugins for Sonar 2 xl. I am looking for something to improve or simplify mixes. I am pretty impressed with material I have heard that claimed to be home recordings made with a DAW. Are there particular compressors or mastering software that work well? I will...

    Sonar 2 xl tablature problems

    I have been using cwpa9 to make tabs for a few years and when I open the files in Sonar 2xl many notes (particularly on the first string) show up astrisks while others are fine. I have confimed that the channels are correct and that the layout is configured for a midi guitar that corresponds...
