    Hi Bob and Pat,

    Thanks for the mention!
    The Kindle version probably won't be out until after the print edition because it takes a different kind of preparation.

    Thanks!
    Scott

    Hey Fog,

    Yeah, I think the publisher is a U.S. company, so the book always comes out a bit later outside of the U.S.A. Sorry about that...

    Thanks!

    Hi Jeff and Martin,

    Yep, obviously, I've had access to X1 for a while. And while I know there have been bugs, the software is complete. I know how the buggy features were supposed to work (and some of them actually did work in earlier builds). In addition, Cakewalk themselves did the technical edit, so you can be sure that the information is technically accurate.

    Thanks!

    Scott, is the printed and Kindle version both in full color or will one or the other or both just be in black and white? 

    With the Kindle version; will I be able to read it on my current computer, then later be able to transfer and read that file on another computer, kindle or iPad?

    Will X1's Kindle version have more content and pages similar to your Sonar 8 Power! Kindle version?

    Hey Syntheticpop,

    These types of books never have color figures. They're always black and white. SONAR X1 Power will have black and white (or grayscale) figures.

    I know Amazon has a PC Kindle reader, so I would think you could read it both on your computer and on the Kindle, but you'll need to contact them to be sure. The SONAR X1 Power book will work like any of the other Kindle books out there.

    Both the print and Kindle versions will contain the same content. There are no download chapters this time around. I removed the older/outdated material and everything fit in print this time. I think that will make some people happy.

    By the way, I just heard from the publisher today that the Kindle version should be out at the same time as the print version. As soon as Amazon gets the Kindle edition page up there, I'll let everyone know.

    Thanks!
    Scott

    There is a link on amazon under the SONAR X1 Power page that you can request that amazon make the book available in Kindle format. It may help those of us that would like to have a Kindle version available to request it .  This link should get you there.

    don't show up in the UK , but amazon in the Uk aren't great for getting your books Scott

    bookfella's etc is where I bought my last ones from


    Order it from Amazon.com.  I order books regularly from .com rather than .co.uk because they always arrive (despite a journey 100 times further) better packaged and always in pristine condition.  Books I've ordered from Amazon.co.uk often arrive scuffed, creased or buggered up in some way, and I end up with the hassle of returning them.  I saw a clip on UK TV  once of how the orders are assembled and stuff whizzes and slides over sheet steel chutes and tables where operatives box them up.  I assume Amazon in the US have slightly more sophisticated and gentle logistics equipment that greatly cuts down on damage.  I order Scott's book every year always from .com.

    Hi Jeff and Susan,

    That's correct. There's no reason to request it because it will definitely be available. Amazon just hasn't gotten the page up yet. However, I just spoke to the publisher and they are going to see if they can get a pre-order page for the Kindle edition up on Amazon sometime soon. I'll let you know...

    Thanks!
    Scott

    Hey... quick question... when you order from Amazon.com from outside the USA, do you have to pay extra in shipping or taxes? Just curious...

    I've bought three different versions of the book. It needs a complete re-write not just as minor update. The book can be excruciatingly annoying when it assumes the reader knows where a certain menu item is three levels down.

    ok thanks Scott.  so the Kindle is able to display images like screen shots too?  but just in black and white correct?  the reason I ask is because I don't want just a text version; seeing snapshots will probably help me follow it better.  I assume your printed version always had figures (the screen shots) to refer to.  So I'm hoping the Kindle is able to show these figures too.

    Hi Stephen,

    Sorry to hear you're not enjoying the past editions. I never assume the reader knows something about the topic I'm describing. However, the book is meant to be read cover to cover. If you just skip around without reading previous chapters, then of course, you're going to miss some info. I can't repeat the same info in every section of the book. You need to read through the entire book at least once and then you can use it as a reference.

    Best regards,
    Scott

    As far as I know, the Kindle version is exactly the same as the print version. I know that I don't write separate versions, but the publisher puts each edition together. I'll ask them, just to be certain, but I'm pretty positive the Kindle version does include figures.

    Thanks!

    Scott,

    You are assuming people have a photographic memory. I've read two of them cover to cover but when you refer to it later it's to solve a problem. The problems are only solved if you can remember everything else. The book could be improved with more screen shots at the appropriate moment. But then don't take my word for it: I'm only a consumer with a less that perfect memory.

    don't show up in the UK , but amazon in the Uk aren't great for getting your books Scott

    bookfella's etc is where I bought my last ones from


    Order it from Amazon.com.  I order books regularly from .com rather than .co.uk because they always arrive (despite a journey 100 times further) better packaged and always in pristine condition.   I order Scott's book every year always from .com.
    Thanks, John (Skyline)!

    Hey... quick question... when you order from Amazon.com from outside the USA, do you have to pay extra in shipping or taxes? Just curious...

    Scott

    skyline I use this >

    http://www.find-book.co.uk/

    save you some money also.. last 3 scott books (except for power fly fishing. which is TBA) I got via find book and then "book fellas" in mint condition..

    so although Scott maybe bigging up amazon, in the UK other companies (like book fella's) ARE doing the business for him.

    just because amazon are the biggest book wise, well others are better price wise for the same service. also bookfella's give me 10% off time to time.. so I wait for a voucher

    hey Scott , check this out.. is it an antique yet ? >

    Hi Stephen,

    To solve that problem, I put in references to other sections and chapters. So, for example, in a step-by-step section that also requires info about a previously discussed feature, I'll let the reader know they need to look back to a previous section of the book if they don't remember how to use that feature. That's the only way it can be done. Otherwise the book would end up with thousands of pages (with a lot of repeated content) and then no one would buy it because it would cost way too much.

    But I'm always open to constructive comments and I appreciate your input on this... I've done a lot of work on the current edition and hopefully, it will provide the info that everyone needs to learn how to use X1.

    Thanks!
    Scott

    Hey Fog and Colin,

    Thanks for the UK links... yeah, I like Amazon.com because they cater to everyone and they usually provide the best price. Though, of course, if you can find a better price somewhere else, that's cool too.

    Yeah, SONAR Power is still floating around out there, but then again, so is my first book: Cakewalk Power. I can't believe there are still people buying that book and still using Pro Audio 9. Amazing.

    Scott

    Just a quick note to everyone asking about the Kindle version... I heard back from the publisher...

    Yes, it will contain the same content as the print version, including the figures.

    Thanks!
    Scott
