BrandoThe idea that people who use and like SONAR have to be overtly sensitive to others who come to the forum and behave like jackasses (,oh, no did he say..... that?????) is ridiculous.

is it not that any ilok-protected software can now be either dongled or not? still, dongle regardless, it requires the intrusive driver-like software to be installed, dongle or no... forget not the hoo-har from 2 or 3 years ago... (regarding ilok, not sonar)
 
still, the point was that ilok requirement wouldn't prevent it happening, as that milestone is already passed - indeed, now there is the command center... we are a million miles away from the simple serial/registration combo that sonar used to use :-(

I have been making a concerted effort lately to make sure my harmony vocal tracks are sung properly before using the take. As opposed to just "fixing" everything because I have the tools. I like to take the song line by line - listen closely and rehearse each line for matching then record until I get a nice matching take. I'll even normalize phrases as necessary during this process (in the lead and harmony parts) so that volumes are consistent and minimizing compression needs. Sometimes the best tool for the job is doing it right when you're doing it. Sure, I buy band-aids but I try to avoid using them! And how good of a band-aid should I buy?????  If you are accident prone you might oughta stock up on some hefty band-aids...
