I find this post quite amusing, especially as someone who is about to enter the world of PC-based recording and mixing for the first time. I won't have Sonar in-hand and in my macine for about another week, yet everything I read about Cakewalk Producer 7 is good. I plan on integrating it with a stand-alone recorder I have been using for the past year (a Boss BR1600CD).

I might be new here, but I have been around music for 40-plus years, and have learned that even old dogs like me should be willing to give new things a try. I expect a learning curve and I'm sure I'll be driving y'all nuts with my questions, but I believe Sonar Producer is going to open up a whole new avenue of possibilities. Do I expect to hit some problems? Heck yeah ... but I have a feeling most of those will be operator error, not system errors -- and won't be anything that can't be fixed.

This guy seems to be blowing his cookies before even getting it up. Too bad. Sounds like it all boils down to the difference between MAC fans and PC fans. It's like the age-old Ford and Chevy thing. You either like one or the other, and the "other" is religated to being something lesser than the one they favor.

Anyway, glad to be aboard. I hope to learn a lot from this site and you guys.

One of the things that was mentioned in Logic 8s review in Sound on Sound was that the problem with the midi tick timing hadnt been sorted with version 8, dont you think they should have looked at that instead of revamping the interface, bundling content with it and hoisting it on the public while it still had problems. ;)

Paul; Welcome to the forum.

Sorry you had to see this dumb thread. We as a whole don't have very many threads of this sort.

i know the Mac platform and OS is so elegant and stable and i don't have to make adjustments to the OS to get it working efficiently because it automatically optimises itself when you open Logic Pro

Yes, it's magical. Magically delicious. It's like a frosty breakfast cereal. With a toy surprise inside.

There is just too many problems and inconsistencies going on with the PC and vista and Sonar for me to even consider hoping on board.

and...

they leave us in and they are so slow to do anything about it or come forth and admit things and openly discuss it.

Who's this "us" business? I thought you wouldn't "even consider hoping on board" SONAR7 on Windows, yet you have some sort of special precognitive insight into the instability of PC-based DAWs and somehow know for a fact that Cakewalk is "slow to do anything about" imaginary problems that you haven't experienced yet? So have you "hoped on board" yet, or not?

Geez... gimme some of whatever it is you're smoking. I wanna live in your reality... just to see what it's like.

BTW, I counted no fewer than 7 references to Logic Pro8 in your post. Looks like your mind is made up. See you in 4 years when Apple decides to do something radical like focus on iGadgets and totally neglect apps like Logic for years on end, or maybe just switch to some entirely different hardware platform causing them to rewrite everything from scratch...

Silly boy Tricks are for kids!!

Well if Steve Austin, a man barely alive, but we can rebuild him, is leaving,
then I'm leaving too!

We could've made him better than he was....
better....
stronger ....
faster ........
