Hi guys,
 
Newbie here.
 
I used an identical pay-per-month plan with other amateur-pro DAWS and successfully owned a starter DAW upon completion.
Now, I am enrolled in the same payment plan but with a PRO DAW...actually its called Cakewalk Professional and my pre-Q is this:
 
WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG? 
 
Everyday my body rocks with speechless enthusiasm knowing I can get my EP done without having to hire outsourced music workers to polish my stems from an am-pro DAW.
 
MUCH of it will be done by my shiney new PRO DAW.
 
I have subsisted under the poverty line for much of my life and can only pay per month.
 
My laptops 4GB RAM and Intel Core i5 CPU barely makes the minimum.
 
But I did it.
 
I've assembled the tools that can make great music.
 
The disparity of income vs. latent talent has been a fact of life since the lousy invention of currency, lol.
 
Now in the "bedroom producer" age I can get my music made and out to the internet-at-large to see what others think.
 
Perhaps even set up a successful brand web presence and make an honest living at 100% music income!!
 
Anyway, I'll be back for sure.
 
 
 
 
Just have one last question before I go for now.
 
Is this the page I want for a Cakewalk Pro manual?
 

 
 
Thanks again Cakewalk- been following you since my late teens!
 
 
Peace.

Great, glad you're happy.   But this forum sees the fanboy hit-and-run as often as the hate-it-all hit-and-run.   So stick around and contribute! 

Hi, and welcome to this forum Be sure to drop by if you have any questions (you eventually will), or to help someone else with a problem you have the answer to. There is a massive amount of knowledge here. Some seems to know it all, and are happy to share their knowledge. 
You can also use Cake TV for learning.
Or the support page: https://www.cakewalk.com/Support/By-Product/SONAR%20Professional
Best of luck.

It is also useful to view the videos in CCC, if you used it for install.
Ps. If your pc is struggling when you work on a big project (even if you are not there yet), you can freeze tracks (it is reversible), to free up more "pc power"
 

Great to see that you're liking Sonar! Welcome to the forum! Also, when you're finished with some of your music, try posting a song or two on the songs forum. There are many who can give you great advice on what your mix may need to sound its best! Anyway, welcome!

Howdy!
 
 
Y'all come back now, hear?

Welcome to the forum. Here's a link to the online manual which you can also access via the help menu in Sonar

https://www.cakewalk.com/...t=SONAR&language=3

The Sonar Reference guide is usually found in C:/Cakewalk Content/Sonar. I think. Not in front of my PC so not quite sure. Someone will come along and correct me if it's wrong please.
Also there's Scott Garrigus' Power books which should have new info available soon.

I like the title of this thread.
