A (not so) Complete Beginners Adventures with saying Thanks, dudes!

Well it's been a little over 9 months now since I first installed Sonar and joined the forum. Keeping with the "thank you" theme that's going on lately I thought I'd join in especially considering today is the day I am officially revoking my "Beginner's" status and upgrading myself to "Intermediate". I just finished watching a full mixing tut on Groove3 that employs Sonar and completely understood everything done and know I could do it all myself with relative ease. Add to that all the endless hours I've spent here and poking at the manual, X1 Power, Sonar University, etc while testing things out manually on my DAW and other hardware I think I can confidently say that I know how everything works at an intermediate level. Obviously I've got a LOT more to learn (there is always more) but I will be able to pretty much accomplish all of my current production goals.

I could not have done ANY of this without the forum and the specific help of some of the generous friends I have made here. Thank you and I hope I can continue to pay it forward. You guys rock.

Now I'm gonna scope out the next Groove3 series I'm going wail into. Probably X2 Explained just to trawl for features and tricks I may have missed so far. Cheers.

Yes Beep but then out comes the next version and it all starts again.




Watching you has made me a little jealous that you have such a mind that you can learn this stuff so quickly. It took me years and I have never stopped learning.

One thing you have in abundance is focus. I thank you for being here.  

scook, Scott and John... You guys are some of the few who really went out of your way to get me on my feet with stuff and it is more than appreciated. I'm sure it was probably a little funny watching me flail about about in the early days. Sometimes I see my old threads and just shake my head. lol

Thanks, guys. ;-)

I should have added that promotion is well earned!

Congrats, Beep!    And a job well done moving into your new position. 

They grow up so fast don't they John?

Heheh. Well I'd say I'm only in junior high now in engineer terms so ya'll are gonna have to try to keep me off the pot and hope I don't knock up my DAW.

;-)

i told you that you were a keeper.
when you first entered this hood with your delta card.
i cant think of anyone on this forum that has reached out to more people as much as you within the last year.

some people just belong here,
you....just belong here.

You are an inspiration Beep... I mean that.

Nice to see another positive thread Beepster. Does the new position come with a pay rise?

Good going on the learning, Beep!!

I've been doing the same thing here..lot of good stuff here!!








Darn "a" and "s" keys....

... and hope I don't knock up my DAW.

;-)

It's usually the DAW that does that to you ...

Answering a lot of questions on the forum as you have also makes for a good learning experience. 

Congrates Beepster, may each of your next mixes be better than the last.
Keep rockin
Kev.

@Kev... Thanks. :-)

@LordElpus... Ya, man. Definitely pay attention to those guys. A few other guys whose posts I always try to read (even if I don't fully understand them) are, Danny Danzi, Jeff Evans, bitflipper, AT. By no means is that a complete list but those guys will blow your mind. Cheers and happy tracking. ;-)
