Vicsant,

Try increasing the number of Steps. For example, 6 steps per beat will have double resolution of 3 Steps per beat, and so on.

Audio snap 2.0 is a major problem for many, so a tutorial  just like you did  for session drummer 3 would be very much appreciated.
Thanks cakewalk.

Question;

Why make your users go to great lenghts in order to get this on there hard drives ??? 
 
Camel audio has vids like this  ( obviously for the synth they sell , not session drummer !)availible to users who have logged into the site  ..... freely availible for  registered users to download and watch in the best circumstances for them...  Why not do that Cake ?????????????????????

Yay on the HD video idea. FWIW I think these could be a selling point for those looking into Sonar for the first time or thinking about upgrading to new versions. Just keep them organized for easy access. No reason your hard work should go unnoticed. Perhaps a video highlighting new release features?

For instance I checked out the Drum Production Episode I and understand the direction Cakewalk is taking with the Step Sequencer, Session Drummer and the Transient Shaper when seeing them used together and knowing these are all Cakewalk provided tools.

AudioSnap tutorials coming soon? Here is a great tool that appears many on the forums have trouble understanding, including myself with many aspects of it. Sometimes I can't quite figure out why I get the results I do.

I think they should wait before posting a video of Audio Snap 2.0 , were already in August and the newer Version of Sonar will be out very soon, I'm sure there going to refine audio snap , perhaps make a 3.0... I want to see a video, were they take an accapella at one tempo , and not knowing that tempo, and chop it up and work it in the mix thats a different tempo..and being on key. cant believe the new version is almost here!!! wooo hoo..

I watched the first 2 or 3 installments in this series and they are excellent.  I want to watch them again with Sonar up and running so that I can experiment with some of the techniques demonstrated in the videos.  Very nice!  I look forward to more of these.

Thanks!

I just finished watching the Drum Production Episode I. Most excellent.

As a newbie this kind of thing is indispensable. It answered a lot of questions and showed how in-depth some of the features really are. I was blown away with how much control you can have over Session Drummer with Step Sequencer. I will definitely be watching it a few more times to let it sink in.

I would love to see something like this for ACT and the A-PRO.

Thanks for the drum master class!! I dropped a lot of cash on this and the V-studio 700 package and the learning curve has been brutal. This has given me a really effective boost over a hurdle I'd been trying to climb for months now... Please keep them coming like this. It will only cement the loyalty of your customers as it brings us more quickly into an effective work flow. 

Thanks again and can't wait to see what's next!!!!

These forums and the new tutorials are the main reason I use SONAR. I do have a Mac and use it for many things, but when it comes to my audio and especially MIDI editing, I boot my Mac into WinXP and run SONAR!

Many, many thanks for the time and effort that goes into these tutorials.

Yes, This is a major selling point.  Manuels and help files are great, but this is basically looking over someones shoulder and actually seeing how it is done.  I have been using Sonar/Cakewalk pro audio for +10 years and learned from these videos.  Please Make many more, not only for the new user, but for the old timers as well.  Sonar has hit the nail on the head with this one.  If you can see step by step how to do something a lot of the frustration that goes on here will go away.  Unless you are too lazy to even watch a video.
Sonar Thank you!

Like others, I would like to commend you for the new videos and also reinforce the idea that it's things such as these high production quality, non-product show demonstration, in depth tutorial videos that will push you up in the minds of DAW shoppers much more so than just describing new features in marketing speak ad content. 

I know if I was in the market for a DAW, I'd like to see a company that has taken the time, and quite frankly re-invested some of the money I paid for the product to create informative tutorial content that will help me get deeper into their product.  So may people use only a fraction of a product simply because they are either unaware of features, or quite frankly afraid of more complex features.  By showing them how to use the key features and the more workflow related ones that will assist them in creating great productions, you are getting users more up to speed and informed.  When a consumer has a greater understanding of your product, they are much more likely to go deeper into your product and as they go deeper, they are more likely to understand the power at their fingertips.

So many people switch DAW programs looking for that one that will be intuitive and have a work-flow that will simply speak to them and allow them to do what they want as easily as possible.  Unfortunately, while almost all commercial DAW packages can do most of the same functions, they all do them in differing ways, and users don't want to have to figure it all out by themselves, so show them how to get great results as easily as possible with video tutorials and you are likely to have less consumers jumping ship to what they think will do it easier.

Just my 2 cents - your mileage may vary.

Keep up the great work with future videos.  Like others a multi-part AudioSnap tutorial would be great - not just a 5 minutes general overview - get in depth and show how-to stuff that people would be able to use to make great music with.

Hey - on a related topic - what's the best way to enter a (triplet roll + quarter hit) into the 4:4 Step Sequencer without it sounding like a rat-a-tat-tat machine gun?

Re:SONAR: Get Started (video series) 2010/08/12 19:29:10 (permalink)
Thinking about these videos further...  I wonder if it would be advantageous to make them ONLY available to registered users.  In some respects, it feels a bit wasteful to be sharing the info in these videos to anyone who wants to see them (including non-Cakewalk) users.

If they were available ONLY to registered users, this would be an added marketing tactic that Cake could use.  Not only do you get the products, but you also gain access to these detailed, product-specific videos.

Just a thought.

Interesting thought . . . on the flip side, would YOU buy a product so that AFTER you bought it, you could see how great it is?!
 
IMHO, not to diss the work of the other CW folks, Seth's videos do more to sell Sonar than practically all the prior "trade show" videos combined (well... ok, except for maybe the live V-Vocal demo).
 
In fact, I'm starting to feel my body shake and shiver... I haven't seen a new Sonar video in.... well... almost two weeks!!  Talk about withdrawal symptoms!

Hi all, just want to add my feedback - I'm up to part 3 of the drum production series videos - there are excellent. essential stuff - this will encourage me to try new things in sonar. Fortunately, I have a real drummer, but this will help be generate realistic demos. It's really great to be shown in video format on my laptop rather than fishing out the manual. Much more immediates, convenient, and actually more effective. Of course the manual is opn standy by for more troubleshooting and problem solving (so I don't actually need it )

Please listen to my band's new (post-prog rock?!) songs at www.reclaimmusic.com all produced using sonar X1!!

Hey Brandon- You guys really shot out the lights with this series.  Superb job!  I thought I had at least a working knowledge of SD3 'til I saw the videos, now I'm blocking out time to go back for a 2nd and even 3rd watch I learned so much.
 
Occasionally, I'm called to assist with similar videos for our (my company's) user base, and they are NOT easy to do, and even harder to do well.  And this series was done extremely well.  Kudos to Seth, yourself and whomever else was involved with the production.
 
But, guess what- now you're victims of your own success as the natives grow restless for MORE.  Count me amongst those looking for a similar series on Audio Snap.

Excellent production.
This sort of company support is what it's all about.
Makes the Sonar Producer 8.5 asking price all the more sweet.
 
Good job Cakewalk =)
 
So when's the next series???

Re:SONAR: Get Started (video series) 2010/08/16 16:35:05 (permalink)
Hi. I love the new video series. I don't remember seeing one on file management. I've been using this since it was Sequencer Plus back in the day by Twelve Tone Systems! In any event, I still am not sure of how to make all of the proper choices as to where to file stuff to make the machine the most efficient that it could be. 
I realize that everyone's needs are different, and that the default locations are probably the default because they cover the most scenarios. That being said, maybe a short video on..".you have all of these VI's. Keep the instruments here, keep the sounds here, keep the data here"...that kind of thing. 
I just upgraded to 8.5 about two months ago, and just upgraded from Vista64 to Windows7 a week ago. I have projects all over my laptop all ready. 

I love this program, just need some help getting and keeping organized.

Thanks

At this point it has been two weeks. We're certianly gald you want more and intend to provide just that. Having said that we're going for a good balance of quality and quantity. Videos take a long time and a lot of work to produce. Not to mention other activities sometimes slow things down a bit. To put it in perspective it took longer than two weeks to produce that Master Class video.

But we're certainly dedicated to building a useful and hopefully valuable video library as a resource to new and existing SONAR users.

Great suggestion. We'll make sure it's on deck.
