    newbie w/a few q's

    The fx in the fx bin doesn't get printed - so shouldn't be any worries. I've got no opinion if you should use the fx in the patchmix inline. They're pretty cool, as is the PowerFX-gadget. I'ts a good bet you'll get sound if you press the input echo button. But careful so it's not to loud when...

    newbie w/a few q's

    Sonar LE is supposed to be one of the more powerful oem's so I think you'll be happy for a while. There's probably something wrong in your monitoring chain. There's a few ways to monitor you signal. You might want to check input monitoring in the Sonar helpfile especially the part with Input...

    Sonar 6 is here, almost!

    I think this will explain it. http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.asp?m=849363&mpage=1 I upgraded from S4SE to S5PE in July fully aware that it likely was a stupid thing to do - but I really needed some of the stuff and it was a good deal as such. But then the kind people at Cakewalk offered us...

    Keyboard player plugin?

    I'm not talking about the arpeggiator. I think I meant JMT Orchestrator. Haven't tried it myself but there's a lite version included in Sonar. The arpeggiator is probably of very limited use as a substitute for a keyboard player. There might be something more in the same lines among the third...

    Keyboard player plugin?

    If I understand you correctly you could perhaps use some autocomp-program like Jammer or Band-in-a-box and move the keyboardparts into the app of your choice - like Sonar. I even think there's some similar tool included in Sonar as an mfx - never used it though.

    Sonar 5 is here!

    Nah, but Tracktion isn't kiddy. I tried the version 1 NFR, and I could see myself getting used to that workflow. But I'm to stuck on Cakewalk...

    Sonar 5 is here!

    You're probably right. But truthfully it's more like I'm trying to like it - but got this "kids prog"-feel from how it looks. Like Rolands "Do-re-mix" or something... :s

    Sonar 5 is here!

    The horror! I'm writing Cakewalk asking them to remove that feature... I'm not taking any chances!

    Sonar 5 is here!

    Maybe they look stupid - but I like the fact that I could put pictures of the singers and/or my own instruments there.

    Variax - what do you honestly think?

    Well, while we're digging into Variaxinfo Here are pictures and more demos (I think it's the ones originally at Line6). http://www.vettaville.nl/vvvariaxpicsnl.htm Here are some videos: http://www.vettaville.nl/vvvideosguitars.htm And this is the most active Variax-community I've found...

    Variax - what do you honestly think?

    Basically I agree with everything you said Phildo. Had my Variax for over a year and it's been my workhorse in the studio. Convincing enough for me and it's so nice to be hum and noise-free... Never heard about latency-problems with Variax, and I don't notice any (and I DO notice it when I play...

    By far the best EQ plugin?

    Like I said, Posihfopit. Also the previously mentioned Paris. Other good freebees are Kjaerhus classic at http://www.kjaerhusaudio.com/classic-eq.php and the NyqvistEQ at http://magnus.smartelectronix.com/ (should point out that NyqvistEQ is donationware)

    Developing your own VST

    Congrats, my first born VST's was a volume control and a channelswapper... :) After that I came to a full stop, mostly because of limited time... Just wanted to mention this place if you hadn't heard about it: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=33

    Finally Upgraded to Sonar 4 Producer

    I went from CW9 to Sonar 3 (studio). It was a VERY easy transfer considering the large jump in time and features. I guess it's a combination of Sonar being very intuitive, some things are a bit like Pro Audio and it's a very focused work area. Things you don't need often doesn't interfere, so...

    cubase or cakewalk...or neither?

    I felt I had let you down so I searched around a while and found this quote from Ron Kuper at Cakewalk - basically I think if we're to believe this statement we're both right (but perhaps you slightly more right...): "When it comes to the basic math of mixing and summing, I stand by the...

    cubase or cakewalk...or neither?

    I'm surprised. I would view differences at this level as bugs. But I won't argue - and of course you have the right to view this as important as you like. Personally I'm far from a studio where this is the critical section. Like I said I've seen some threads and discussions with tests being made...
