Picked up Sonar 6 today
 

Got the Studio Edition. Bit strange to navigate after using Sonar 2 for last few years, but first impressions good. The VSTi integration seems more solid than the VST adaptor I used to have to use. I recorded a note for note arpeggio type thing with Albino 2 then whacked the tempo up to 266, recorded a load of mad automation to see if I could crash it, but it didn't even break a sweat.

The manual runs to 250 pages this edition which is a bit thinner than all the previous Sonar / Pro Audio manuals, but a good read. Online pdf manual is 950 pages and there's a decent quality video tutorial on using audio quantize on the installation disk.

So far so good..:cool:

How is it at recording farts?

You'd be OK with it Alex mate

Good. If I can't capture a real life gas attack at 192 kBits I'm just not comfortable. ;)

It must be an awful lot more developed than v 2.2 and a nice jump in capability.

2 days of use later:

This has to be the best 99 €uropes I've spent in many a year. Absolutely brilliant features.

VSTi's rock solid. Automation of absolutely every parameter in VSTi's and effects. Graphic or assign/knob learn.

Folders. Put any track in a folder. copy paste the folder.

EQ on all channels. Automation and parameters assignable.

Toolbars 100% customisable.

Major upgrade for me from 2.2. I've not tried audio quantize or stretch yet.

Welcome to the modern age OVM!

Bloody hell that's right Jase! Nearly got knocked off me penny-farthing by one of them "motor car" things today as well.
:rolleyes:

Any idea if its Win Vista compatible?

I love Penny-Farthings! I wonder where I could get one???

Dunno yet - but I would fully expect this to be the first one to be Vista 64 native.

Of course the real headace for most of us is going to be getting Vista/Vista 64 drivers so I expect I'll be running my workstation on 32 bit XP for some time yet...
