hi.
im new on sonar but have good background on music theory. im jast starting to write songs and looking for best software to work on. man people say on of advantages of sonar rather than other softwares like qbase is an active forum that everytime you ask your question it wil get answer fast and other is its much easier than others.
as an start i want to know what are most important plgins for sonar and what they do? and as i dont have alot of instruments around me i want to know how can i have most compelete sound effects and samples for all instruments and digital made sounds.
and i want to know does sonar give all i need for composing and does those sounds make me need no more to play and record other instruments?
the last one i want to know is what is quick start for most important features for sonar. is this important to learn first to work or it is easy to work on? for example a program like guitar pro you can just open program and start writing.
thanks for you helping and sorry for my bad english

I don't know how to answer all your questions but one pro of Sonar is it's very easy to learn to use whereas Cubase is not. It also contains all what one needs in the beginning especially the producer version. I do not know about other daw programs. If you want to know what instrument package to get I must recommend the Native Instrument's KOMPLETE 10 . It has a lot of instruments and also effects for a bargain price. Here is one good place to get to know Sonar x3:

Every effect is most important. It all depends on the sound you want and the sound of the other instruments in the song. One effect is not more important the an other effect. Its all relative. 
 
You will need to learn about audio engineering, as this will teach you what the effects do. Patience and allot of dedication and time is needed to learn about what each effect dopes and how it affects the sounds and how you should set them up. Every song will need different effects and effect settings. Its all relative to what you want it to sound like. There are no right or wrong ways to sue effects.
 
Things to learn about:
Compressors
Limiter
EQ's 
Soft synths
MIDI
Fx like flangers delays and chorus
buy books on audio engineering, recording and mixing and read them and sleep with them under your pillow. Maybe osmosis will happen and you can learn while sleeping as there is allot to learn

All the major DAW applications offer similar basic recording/editing/mixing capabilities.
They're all pretty similar on this level... and they're all relatively easy to use.
As CJ mentioned, if you're completely new to using a DAW... and to mixing, you've got a steep learning curve.
Understand that up front... and be patient with yourself knowing that it's going to take time/effort before you'll produce something that sounds like a "record".
 
The more esoteric features are where the greatest difference lies between each of the major DAW applications.
Sonar X3 is a good balance of:

• Capabilities
• Fidelity 
• Ease of Use
• Included Plugins/Processors

Sonar X3 is one of the more "complete" packages... providing everything you need to get started.  
Once you get up-and-running, you'll no doubt find other (favorite) 3rd party plugins for specific applications.
 
No matter which DAW application you choose, it'll have strengths/weaknesses compared to the others.
Most important is to checkout a few, make a decision that best fits you and your situation... and start learning.
Once you're familiar with one of the major DAW applications, it's not too difficult to switch to another (if ever so desired).
 

I use Sonar for composing.  It has more features, plugins, and virtual instruments included for free than most other DAWs (if you buy the Producer edition).
 
Thanks.

thank you all my friends. so as you say for sound effects sonar is compelte by itself and needs no more plugins for start?

Yes, X3 Producer contains more than enough to get started.

For a daw beginner sonar producer has lots to offer already. It would take you sometime
to learn or master most of its plugins and features. Groove3.com is a good source to learn sonar and audio engineering. Dotell us what kind of music do you intend to compose or record and and good folks at this forum can point you to the right direction.

I believe you will not need more effects in the beginning. Here is a link to a comparison chart for you to help decide which version would be right for you:

Lots of effects and instruments too.

I have to mention Scott Garrigus' superb book on Sonar X3

Scott has many tips and is also a user of Sonar and well as being a member of the Cakewalk forums.
And welcome to Cakewalk and Sonar.
