3 - Full time, all the time. 95% of my income comes from my studio, which runs 90% on Sonar, with the balance of software stuff like mastering software and some dabbling with FL, Reason and PT. I compose for film & TV, produce artists, record my own band, track live concerts, mix and master incl overseas clients. My studio runs 8 - 14 hours per day, often 7 days per week.


Nice! Congrats, man.

Thanks Streckfus - it's a dirty job, but someone's gotta have the fun :O)

I'm a pro collector of VSTs. I mainly play bass (since 1969, a year or two of guitar before that). I'm not retired and I am not likely to retire anytime soon. By day, I'm in IT. I have not written 100 songs yet. I'm working on it.
 
I have participated in over 100 songs in the songs forums since 2008. Only a small handful were 100% me. Mostly collabs. Some I led, others I followed.

2) Part-Time Pro - I have a full-time job, but I make a little money on the side using Sonar for music projects
 
Although i don't even recall the last time i made any kind of money with music...

Ampfixer by name, ampfixer by nature. I guess I'm a 1. However, I have been paid for audio work done with Sonar, it just wasn't music.

I guess I would be somewhere between 1 and 2.
Have a full time job, working as an assistant for a person with autism, but have recorded others, and released stuff with a few bands. Have not made much money, yet...
Still see myself as a noob, compared to some of the people here

2. Part Time Pro.
 
I work in IT mostly to keep my health insurance benefits for my family. I supplement the family income working as an audio engineer using SONAR.
I always have paying clients of one sort or another. Generally I net between $500 - $2,000 a month from SONAR related work. Although for July 2015, I am lined up with $4,450 worth of work. But I will be completely buried and will have no life to speak of outside the studio...ha ha ha. I guess that's what I wanted, well, I got it. At least for July, then back to the normal load.
