Dan - you should post this as a NEW TOPIC. You've posted a reply to a FAQ Sticky and most users are not going to look in here to answer your questions.

There are over 8000 hits, I hope they're not "just peeking"! LOL!

Can anyone tell me where to find my SN that should have been with my CDs that I just received in the mail today? I tried the "number" on the shrink wrapper, but it doesn't work. Not surprisingly, my original CW HS 2002 SN will not work either. Tech Support is gone home by the time I got home to open my mail...and it's Friday. RATS!

Just FYI...Unless they have changed something...you still have to phone in to get your S/N. (But, I didn't have to pay the shipping on the old stone tablets that they used to ship the S/N to me. Just kidding, I guess their not "that" behind the times.) And to be fair, SONAR is still the best MIDI editor IMHO.

I've made some updates to my website. Hopefully its easier to read and I also have a page where I compare the features of the Sonar line of products. Check it out!

Wow,I just bought the home studio xl (it's gotta arrive yet) but i've been all over looking at all the video's and especially some of the plug-in technology,was pretty impressed by v-vocal,and guess what,I could'nt find any resources to see exactly what is included where,then I came across Daves site via this thread,wow so here's a quick summary...

1.Sonar 6 Home Studio XL seems an awesomely cheap piece of kit for what hopefully amounts to a virtual "steal" seeing it has more great tools shipped with it than Producer edition,which I think for the price should automatically include the Dimension LE + GPO,Booster 11 etc.
2.My vocalists will need to get it right first time

Thanks Dave for taking the time

dave is right, usb control is thru the cpu, firewire control is on the chipset, so it's faster, not to mention firewire 800....

Firewire is faster due to the error check/correction happens in a much more reliable fashion than usb 2.0.
I'd have to look up the specs from my references to provide exact explanations. But I know that this is the case.

Just starting out! My wife bought me S6XL for Christmas. I was using a BR-8 for recording, so PC recording is new to me. What kind of USB interface do you recommend for using no more than 2-4 inputs? I noticed on the box that the MP3 Encoder was only good for 30 days. What is it's purpose?

Hey I apoligigize if I'm posting in the wrong thread.

We are using an M-audio fast track ultra (it has four channels out) and we want to run four channels, channel 1 vocals, channel 2 drum mix, channel 3 rhy and lead guitar. channel 4 bass.

We are using sonar XL 7 to do this but I cant get the channels worked out in my recording software, it shows every track getting the exact same input. How can I fix this?

I was using an m-audio pre usb, which just has a left and a right. It worked ok but with the four different tracks We would have more control over the mix.

with interface and computer?

Hi, Kind of new here (Home studio 7 XL) and I tried to open your link but got this message,

 Sorry I didn't read the message before mine!

But hey!! Good on ya Dave!!
Thats a great FAQ you've put together.
I say CW should consult with you (and many other skilled members) when they do their own for this forum.
