Hey Scott don't surprise us like that.

We are used to you turning up about 20 seconds after someone mentions your book.

Fog -- yeah, this Summer has been kinda sad because I haven't had time to do much fishing at all. Too much work to do... BUT hopefully, it'll be worth it.

Strikinglyhandsome1 -- LOL! Yeah, I need to pop in here more often.

I didn't see those Computer Music or Music Tech tips. Hope you liked mine!

Best,
Scott

Thanks a lot Scott, those tips were actually useful and some of them I had no idea about. Not like the "masterclasses" in CM and MT wich evereybody with Sonar would know about if they just opened the manual

Sadly very reduced studio equipment as it is... ASUS G750J, 8 gb RAM, Win8, Roland Quad Capture.

Hey Thomas -- Nah... I don't think anybody wants to hear about that.

Hey Jon -- You're very welcome... funny guy. I humbly bow before Asparapuss.

Hey Legion -- You bet! I'm glad you found them useful. I haven't seen those other articles in CM or MT, but I always strive to provide the best info.

Hi Susan!

Thanks for those tips, the 'compress Midi notes' is a thing I have always wanted (but didn't know how to do).

Just ordered you book by the way I'm trying to change from Cubase to Sonar and I want to get productive as fast as possible.

Hey Jim,

Excellent! I'm glad you enjoyed the tips.

I hope you enjoy the book too... thanks for picking it up! It'll definitely get you going with SONAR faster than anything else. I always recommend reading it cover to cover and then using it as a reference after that.

Best,
Scott

Oh god I am turning into a Fanboy at my age!

As you probably do not remember I recently bought sonar power and it is everything the manual should have been.

Hey Mike, Freddie, SalfordLad, Roger, Marc... you're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed the tips.

Hey Ivan... thanks! The more fans the better. And yes, I remember... although sometimes I need a little nudge as I get older. Glad you're enjoying the book.

Thanks, Everyone!

Hi Robert -- Thanks very much! I hope you enjoy the book.

Hi Conrad -- Do you mean the tips that are on the web page that I mentioned? You should be able to just save the page or print the page via your web browser.

Hi Jon -- You bet. I'm glad you liked the tips.

Hi Scott
Thank you for your reply.
Apologies, my mistake, I ment the Sonar Power book series.
Can't remember how long but wanted to buy these books. Our currency is 8 to 1 and I will be paying double the value of these books to get it here via courier and then they hit me with a 14% tax upon arrival.
So I thought it would have been a great idea to be able to prchase a download version.

Regards
Conrad

Hi Conrad and Walker,

No, I'm sorry. Unfortunately, piracy killed the PDF versions of the books. There used to be PDF versions but they were stopped starting with the SONAR 6 Power book because the PDFs ended up being posted all over the Internet for free download by idiot pirates. This was hurting sales of the books, so now they are only available in print.

Best regards,
Scott
