Thanks, JohnoL. It's normally at least a few months between Sonar release and Power publication - hope it's not too far behind when it gets here this time.

I would have thought there may be scope here for an 'evolving' model for Scott to follow, much as SONAR itself is now going to continually improve.
 
To accommodate this, my suggestion would be for Scott to make the move from print media to electronic media.
 
What is "X3 Power" on Amazon currently, $35? How about $15 down for the 'core' guide, and then another three or four updates as features are added to make up the balance?




Maybe through some kind of rolling Kindle edition???

Exactly what I had in mind. Anything that doesn't involve having to have a fresh print-run for the entire book every few months. Electronic media would be ideally suited to this.
 
I know a lot of people (myself included) actually prefer to have 'the printed page' books to hold and flick through, so I'd also envisage other formats being available such as PDF (i.e. computer-based as opposed to e-reader based) which would offer the user the opportunity to print specific pages off.
 
I'm getting up to speed with Adobe Photoshop, and having a dual monitor system (originally for SONAR) means I can open up Photoshop on one monitor and use the other monitor to display online tutorials and how-to videos.
 
Here's a screenshot across both my monitors with Photoshop open on the left monitor and a Steve Arnold video tutorial on the right monitor:
 

 
 
Just imagine how cool it would be to be learning some new technique in SONAR by having it open on one monitor, and the relevant explanation in a PDF version of Power open on the other.

I'd certainly go for it, Steve!

Scott would usually be chiming in by now. A bit worrying.

Hopefully he's too busy writing!

If I get Sonar Power monthly will I get a hover car after 12 months?
