Out of curiosity, and im not sure if this question has been asked yet? But does the disc that comes with this book include audiofiles n such for a project that you've worked on with a final automated mix? I know it might sound stupid but would be interesting to see how things have actually been used and done in order to complete a track using your amount of knowledge? If im talkin pap then let me know, just a question is all :D *EDIT* by the way i've also ordered and will hopefully recieve very soon, a copy of your bible SP5...will leave my reviews from a newbie to the series.

Thanks for the information. I guess I'll still shop around, but the EMU 1820M looks pretty good, too.

thebiglongy, I am the guy who makes the CoolSchool discs (It used to be Steve Albanese and myself but he has left Thomson Course). The disc that you find in the back of the POWER! series of books contain short samples of tutorials from the CoolSchool starter and master sereis of books. The Sonar 5 POWER! book's movie tutorials were authored by Tim Gay & Scott Reams (who I believe posts here). Sonar 5 CSi STARTER is now availible from Cakewalk, Guitar Center, Sweetwater, Sam Ash, B&H, etc... and Sonar 5 MASTER should be availible within the next week or two (it's at manufacturing as I write this). For more information, please feel free to email me or check out: http://www.courseptr.com/ptr_searchResults.cfm?searchText=Sonar

Hi thebiglongy, No, the disc doesn't provide project files. I didn't actually author that disc. I'm thinking about doing my own Sonar video tutorial in the future though. Perhaps for the next version. Not sure at this point, but I may do something along the lines of what you are asking. I know there are plenty of other tutorials out there, but everyone keeps asking me to do one, so I figure I might was well plan on it.  Keep reading the DigiFreq newsletter (see below) to stay informed of my future projects. Thanks for purchasing my book! I hope you enjoy it. Scott -- Scott R.

Thanks!

Not to be an argumentative jerk ...well, OK, maybe I *AM* trying to be an argumentative jerk! ...Regardless, my book had actually already begun to fall apart, so all I was trying to do was to keep it from fragmenting to the point that I began losing pages ...a few had fallen out already, and I just wanted to be sure I didn't lose them forever! So, now the book is nice and safe in a pair of 3/4 standard size D-Ring binders. A bit more of a pain to lug around, but it sure is nice to be able to have the pages easily accessible without having to flip pages back and forth and such.  So Scott, how is the "Advanced Power!" book series coming along? ...How about giving me a couple of points off the profits for the idea? -mr moon

Hi Emma -- Thanks so much for ordering my book! I appreciate your support. I think you'll enjoy it. Over 600 pages of info and 1 hour of video tutorials. Lot's of info in there to keep you busy for a while. Happy music making!
well it's already paid for itself in usefullness - I've had a few minor issues not covered in the manual (surprise surprise), and have managed to flick right to the page in your book and solved the problem. Money well spent imho.
