And another UK user.

Moved to Sonar when Logic shafted PC users and haven't regretted it one little bit ! Especially when there's someone like Scott Garrigus in tow as well, writing his excellent guides.

Another happy UK user (and Sound on Sound fan) here. I found Stuart's accent no problem at all, but then I was born and brought up in the Peoples' Republic of SW Scotland (great place, Wigtownshire, isn't it Jamesg?)

If our US friends want to know what we're really like, they should check out 'Notes From A Small Island' by Bill Bryson (from Iowa) - a classic example of 'tae see oursel's as ithers see us'l

Cheers,

Murray

Another UK user here. (On and off.) Got S6 but wished I'd stayed with S4 (preferred the work-flow and I don't use the add ons, gave up with ACT). [soto voce: I don't want to say too much because we're not supposed to criticise (note the spelling).]

Sonar in the UK? Not a patch on Anarchy in the UK, by the jolly old Sect Pissoles, old fruit, or, rather, that's what a frightfully decent chap told me at the pub over a foaming pint of Badger's Snout. Must dash, I have to have a look under the bonnet of my Austin Healey to see if I left my spanner there. I'll be in such a bind if I don't find it. I borrowed it from Matron, don't you know. She keeps it with her suspenders. TTFN.

This UK you speak of, is it anywhere near Great Britain?
Jim

it's the one that... e.g. when the Scottish Curling team won a medal at the Olympics.. they were from the "UK" if they hadn't won... they'd have been Scottish " />

I find that aspect funny, I can say that as although I was born in London my roots are just left of the UK across the sea.

I've been to Wales also (used to take the ferry to Ireland from there) , I've worked with someone welsh who I didn't until recently was Welsh for years as their accent isn't strong.

I think the Aussies have it tuffer getting pro audio stuff.

ggarrow, I entered that competition, I still have the mix I did somewhere although the mix itself was probably the weak point of it as it was rushed. I got lucky with another one though.

the current coolio one, I'm really not interested in as yer you get your version on itunes.. and thats IT?

Another UK Sonar user here.
I stopped my subscription to Computer Music due to not enough articles including Sonar, despite the fact that most articles could be used in any DAW.

I look at it in my local WH Smith and if I like what I see I buy it. But I love my SOS and Performing Musician subscription I look forward to them every month.

Mr. Clean If you want to meet another Sonar user just send me a PM, I'm only 14 miles from you.

can anyone say 1984.

Well said. It is quite like what Orwell envisioned.

RE: sonar in the uk (gordonrussell76)

I think the official slogan is something like: "The EU...taking up where Napoleon and Hitler left off!"

Sad but true, mind u unions are the coming thing, you have the African Union, soon the North American Union, can anyone say 1984.

Hell I am an ex cubase user, I still keep it on my machine for collaborations, becuase Reason with Cubase seems to still be the Hip Hop producers preferred combination in this day and age.

Brussels - HAHAHAH (I think - explanation below)
A few years back, I was in Paris for some meetings then a tour of a manufacturing facility about 2 hours west of Paris. We had a limo full of Parisians, me and one of my colleagues. As the business chatter died down, the conversations became more social. At some point, they turned to movies "What is your favorite movie?" "Do you like comedies?" In the midst of this converstaion, someone asked "Did you ever see The Pink Panther?" "Yes" I said - starting to get a bit uncomfortable as to where this was headed - me being one of those blasted Americans. "What made the Pink Panther so funny?" I was asked. Ugh - this was the question I was worried about. "Inspector Closeau" seemed like a better answer than "That bumbling French detective."

So - the questioner replied "Yes and you know what they did when they translated the movie into French?" I gave up. "They gave him a Belgian accent!!!"

So everyone in the car died lauging except for me and my colleague. I have never completely understood, other than I guess the French think the Belgians are a bunch of euro-rubes.

There is really nothing useful as it pertains to Sonar here, but seeing as my MG friend and the dude who looks like my ex-wife when she is angry are both brits and the MGA guy brought up Brussels, I had to add this otherwise meaningless diatribe.

Brussels is the "capitol" of the EU.

I think the official slogan is something like: "The EU...taking up where Napoleon and Hitler left off!"[sm=rolleyes.gif]

And by that I mean...it increasingly looks like an attempt on the part of France and Germany to unite all of Europe under a single government. To its credit, the UK has resisted to some extent. They at least have kept out of the Euro.

Of course you count, as u are a SOnar user, which is positive, therefore you are from UK.

Just applying the Coulthard/Murray rule of thumb, when they are winning they are from UK, when they lose there Scottish :)

So if you were a Cubase user, you would be from Scotland :)

ps I am a paying customer of yours, so be nice :)

I've been a UK (Warwickshire) user since Sonar 2. I first tried other sequencers but found them clunky whereas Sonar always seemed to me like a true Windows app., like Excel for example. I've also been addicted to Sound On Sound for nearly ten years now! All songs on my web site have been recorded, mixed and mastered in Sonar. I just can't begin to imagine what they'll unveil for Sonar 8 in late Autumn. The product fulfills all my needs at the moment, but I'll no doubt be tempted! " />
