Sonar X2 Power

Has anyone heard if there is yet a Sonar X2 Power book?  I purchased the Sonar X1 Power The Comprehensive Guide which I found extremely helpful, and was wondering if anyone knew if there was one for Sonar X2.  Thanks.

Scott,
Thank you so much for the update.  I am from the old school of 2" tape and I am clueless about DAWs and have only been working with Sonar since 2009.  Your books have been a valuable asset to me!  Without them, I can't imagine what I would do.  I appreaciate everything you do!

Scott - quit dawdling!  I only have the 8.5 book and you're KILLING me here - :)

I REALLY am fond of your attention to detail in your books, and am definitely looking forward to your X2 stab at things,

Software is ALWAYS beta - hee hee - I was a developer for 38 years.

I gotta ask - how much of YOU is in your profile pic?

That's true, so true. I've done some software dev, so I know what you mean.  It would be so nice to create a perfect product, but right off the bat it's a losing game because the software has to be based on the OS, which is something we don't control. Oh, well... eventually we'll have true AI and computers will take over the world, so none of this will matter. 


I don't look anything like my avatar. To be honest, I don't know how I came up with that logo. I just sat down one evening and wanted to come up with a logo for the DigiFreq site. So, I doodled around using a program called PhotoImpact and that's what came out.

Oh, but I don't have the beard at the moment... it got too itchy.

Where's Fog and the mandatory Power Fly Fishing book question??

I never got the X1 book before I was confident with the software (sorry), I was hoping for a digital edition that would be sold to us (rich I might add) Norwegians;)

Any chance we can get our hands on it this time in digital form? iBooks for example?

Will Scott beat Bill Edstrom to the punch I wonder?  Bill's is slated for next July:

Hey Marius,

He he... Fog must have gave up on the book and decided try fishing on his own. 


Regarding ebooks... yes, I definitely hope that's the case, but I won't know until after publication. I know that SONAR X1 Power is currently available in Nook format, which can be read on a variety of devices with the Barnes & Noble free readers apps. I have a link on my site: http://www.garrigus.com/powerbooks.asp But I'm not sure if the Nook books are available internationally. I would think so.


Thanks!
Scott

Hey Scott!
 
 
Yeah, for some reason, I don't think I can buy the Nook edition here either. I can't even find the Nook reader in the App store. Perhaps there's a third party thing that will work.
 
Norway is a nightmare when it comes to digital distribution though, so I'm not holding my breath. but I'll look into it more closely when X2 power is published

That book is just a quick start with only 170 pages.


It doesn't even compare to the 600+ page SONAR X2 Power! book.

Love your books Scott

a chapter on how the smart tools work ('cause I'm sooo confused!)
And could they make the book thicker but shorter so it will fit on a bookshelf?

Thanks, Bram! The Smart tool(s) will definitely be covered.


Not sure about the book size though. I'll send your suggestion to the publisher, but that's all I can do because they determine everything about the publishing process.

I agree John
So was Sonar Power 6, 8, and X1
I use them before the manual

I found that if I keep a finger or two a couple of chapters back, then I can flip back to confirm what was written in the previous chapter - it takes me reading well into chapter 8 for my brain to comprehend what I had read back in chapter 6.

Some days I need to have the prior version of the whole book available.  YIKES!

:)

You're going to need a bigger bookshelf 

Don't worry... I only post during breaks. I still need to eat. 


Now, if I could only figure out how to transfer my consciousness into a computer, then I could work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
