Just ordered.  My first Sonar Power book since 6, so I'm pretty excited.  Some nice, light reading for the beach (it's 80 degrees in NYC today).

Best,
Rob

I've just been informed by Amazon UK that shipping date is expected to be the 14th of MAY
Hey Colin... Excellent. I was wondering about that. Sorry it takes longer to arrive in the UK, but I'm happy to hear it'll be there soon.


Thanks!
Scott

I'll be starting at the beginning. For various reasons I didn't get a chance to dig onto X1 and didn't buy the X1 Power book. I just know the basics of X2. So I only know X2 fron putzing around and reading the forum. 
Hey Dave... That's a good idea. Yeah, I always recommend reading the book from cover-to-cover if you have the time because you'll get the most out of it that way. By the way, thanks for changing the title of this topic.


Thanks!
Scott

Hi, Scott, 
I have the same interest of twoifbysea, about the dead links in the X1 Power book.  I've already asked you by email about 2 years ago but you didn't reply... 
Thanks 
Hi Atsuko... Regarding the video links... I'm currently re-editing to make some changes, but I'll be releasing them again over the next few weeks. Actually, the DreamStation video is already available... http://garrigus.com/?DreamStation I'll have the next one (probably TTS-1) up shortly.


I'm sorry if I didn't reply to your email. I get a lot of messages and I may sometimes miss a few.


Thanks!
Scott

I found X1 Power book very helpful. 
Amazon told me they have now shipped the X2 Power Book for me today. :-)
Hey Gary... Awesome! I hope you enjoy this new edition as much as the last.


How are you getting along with SONAR X2?


Thanks!
Scott

Hey Rob... Thanks very much! Wow, SONAR 6... that was a long time ago. You've got lots of catching up to do. I'm sure that Summertime weather will help. Warm here in CT too, but it's supposed to go back down to the 50's tomorrow.


By the way, you're website looks great and you've got some nice samples up there too. Were they done in SONAR X2?

Hey, Scott.  Yeah, SONAR 6 Power was a long time ago, but it helped me so much and I still used it often all the way through 8.5 when I needed a reminder of basic stuff that hadn't really changed a lot (terminology, concepts of routing and such). The jump to X2 has been a wonderful experience for me. The new interface has changed everything. I now feel I'm controlling it instead of the other way around.  Your book should complete the experience by em"power"ing me to take that control to the next level. As I've said here before, Cake manuals/help files are fine if one already knows what to look for, whereas your books have opened my eyes to things I didn't already know and explained them in a logical, not technical, way. Jeez... I sound like an ad, don't I?

Thanks for visiting my site and the nice comment.  All the pieces were done over the years with Cake up to SONAR 8.5.  99.9% of the samples used are from EastWest libraries and Cake's built in synths.  Unfortunately, I haven't updated my site in a LONG time so some of my best work has not been added.  Actually, I'm hoping you cover Cakewalk Publisher in X2 Power since I feel I'm being left behind in understanding how to get my music "out there". I plan on starting another thread about website development...

Sorry for going on so long, but I truly am looking forward to X2 Power!

Best,
Rob
