SONAR 6 DEMO VIDEO

[Drammy]

I am impressed with it - much improved, I tried Sonar 5 and wasn't impressed at all, some of the features were good but the "feel" just wan't right!

This looks much better though!


When is it out and how much? Does anyone know, don't think I'll be swapping though. I just got Cubase4 (Thanks ten) for a much reduced price and I think it looks quite good...

Yo Drammy,is Sonar6 anything like logic or is it more like Cubase???I have never used it but am looking to maybe upgrade soon...I can't handle all that window to get to window to get to wherever,shite in Cubase..Gets right on me tits !!

[Drammy]

I don't know - I've never used it - the demo seems to make it look like its own product in its own right, lots of new features and a much improved workflow.

I couldn't say what Sonar 5 is similar to as I have never used Logic...



I understand what you mean by all the windows of Cubase but I think that has improved a lot and realistically almost everything can be done from the main project window now...

Just takes a bit of setting up, but once done it is worth it.

I'd sooner stick to Logic 5.5.1 than move to Cubase...Hell I'd even give up my British Passport for a German one before moving to cubase... FUKKK ME

It seems that Sonar 6 is the leader of sequencers on pc. Cubase 4 doesn't look as innovative as sonar right now. And the new plugins in Cubase 4 look more like artificial respiration. Most of them are the old ones and they also count the midi plugins. I wonder who uses them.

[Drammy]

Admittedly I don't use the Cubase plugs, got plenty of real plugs instead, plus almost all the UAD plugs and Powercore.

I've used Cubase since the earliest of days on the Atari ST and have kind of grown with it... Whenever I try other things they just don't feel right - guess I'm set in my ways.

If I could get the new versions of Logic for the PC then I would give them a try as they do look good, but alas there is no more PC support and the older versions aren't any better than Cubase 4 (IMO) at least not enough to make me wanna sit down and learn a whole new sequencer and way of working!

It would be good if I was just starting out as there are lots of alternatives nowadays, like Sonar and Ableton, but until I see something special...

Gonna at least try a trial of Sonar 6 though!

im going to pick up sonar6 on tuesday. ive been a cakewalk customer since the DOS days, and its the only sequencer i can handle.

yes, it has freeze. it also has automatic plugin delay compensation, something that ive taken for granted too often.
im excited about the ACT technology, maybe it will actually work. the new VC-64 plugin looks nice at least too.


gee, i wonder if it will work with the TI.

Wots the damage on Sonar 6???

They'll offer a cross platform "upgrade" if you've got a legit version of Logic I believe mate. Maybe even Thomann offers it. cakewalk.com has all upgrade prices.

Best of all, Sonar comes with a good printed manual for hours of shithouse reading pleasure.

I was installing some VSTis the other day for my new DAW (still Logic 5.5.1 at the moment) and one install asked me if i wanted DXi for Sonar,whats that all about?? Doesn't Sonar use Vstis? only DXis and Dx !!
