BUT it was worth it, I truly appreciate everyone's support...especially because this is somewhat of a proof of concept. I did this on my own time because it didn't seem right to have Gibson pay me to do something for Cakewalk. I'm not taking any royalties, because that lowers the price and I wanted this to be affordable to the community. But if it does well, then I could justify taking the time to do more - like something about mastering in SONAR, or mixing techniques. We'll see what happens, but I am both grateful for and humbled by the response so far. You've made my day.


I was up to 15 FTotW Word docx files when this showed up. Purchased and downloaded immediately. Why? Because you took the time to incorporate the useful feedback into the tip itself! The idea of going back and editing a Word file each time you or another forum member would post a useful tidbit seems mind-numbing. $15 to save me from that? Easy decision. Heck, the organization alone is worth the $15.
 
The highlighted section in your response is the reason I renamed the download:
 
The Big Book of SONAR Tips - Volume 1.pdf

Purchased - really appreciate you doing this.  I learn so many new things (and quickly forget them!)
 
You're a Sonar Hero!

Just picked this up.  Great work Craig!  This will be very handy.  Especially with the searchable PDF format.  Now I can finally delete all of those bookmarked forum posts 
 
This should nicely fill the gaps that are left between the user manual, and the Sonar Power books. Not that there is anything wrong with them, but this is some real practical how-to get it done advice!

Scored a copy. I also came here to give my gratitude to Craig Anderton for his endless patience and compassion when helping forum participants, and for bringing out the best in the Cakewalk community. He is like that popular kid in high school who got along with everybody, even the dorks.



Actually, I was one of the dorks...until I discovered the magical effect that playing a guitar had on members of the opposite sex.
