I recently purchased Sonar 7 Producer Edition, which was my first Digital Audio Workstation software purchase.The developers at Cakewalk have really created a wonderful piece of software, and I found it very easy to navigate and use even without reading the supplied manual.But after a few days I came to realize that this was a Monster of a program, and that I would need a reference book to learn all it's capabilites.I purchased Sonar 7 Power! and was really impressed by how easy it was to read (not dry like most reference manuals) and how informative it was.I was just halfway into Chapter 3 when I realized that the book had already paid for itself with all the information it had given me on how to customize Sonar.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn the ins and outs of this awesome piece of software.
