Scotts books are a must have addition to your manual. Thank goodness for Scott Garrigus. He has helped me use features and expand my knowledge of an already fine product. Scotts' books give you the keys to unlock the doors. Since ProAudio 9, SONAR 2.2XL and now SONAR 4, Scotts' power books have brought me to a new level of inspiration and production I never thought possible! Thanks Scott ! Ed.

So much great info - 2008-07-08

I consult this book all the time. I really need to cut it apart and loose-leaf bind it. SONAR is such a powerful program, and while quite user-friendly, if you don't already understand sound recording, audio equipment, and the like, you don't know enough to be able to ask the right questions. For years I used Cakewalk only for MIDI, but someone told me that once I learned the audio part, all sorts of horizons would open to me. I couldn't agree more, and this book has been such a help as I've learned what all can be done to sound to make it better. Even with all I've learned, I've only scratched the surface, but know that as I read and apply more from this book, I'll just keep getting better.

Excellent for Sonar Home Studio 4XL - 2006-10-02

I have Cakewalk Home Studio 4XL and found this to be a big help. Lots of great suggestions from set-up to the final product. A Great compliment to the minimal manual provided with the original product. The inclosed CD/video tutorial was worth the products price alone for me.

A Must have book - 2006-08-07

If you're a Sonar Home Studio owner with no experience in DAW this book is a must have. It takes you by the hand and clearly explains the features of this software. Without it I would have never fully understood the features of this software.
