This is a must! - By: N. J. Matthews, 01 Apr 2008 
For anyone looking to understand the inner workings of Sonar 7 this book is a must have. Written in a way that is comprehensive for beginners & insightful for the more experienced users I fully recommmend the purchase.
Scott Does It Again - By: Skyline UK, 12 Feb 2008 I've bought alll of Scott's Sonar Power books since No.4 & I've never been disappointed. He brings lucidity & humour to what would otherwise be a dry subject. Even when Cakewalk used to ship a paper manual with their product it was still a techinican's tome, although helpful as a 'lookup' if you became stuck. Since Cakewalk dispensed with a proper manual (yes, I'm a die-hard fan of the paper variety, sorry) Scott's books are even more essential in my opinion. Try browsing 'on-line help' in bed or in the smalllest room!
As with previous issues, Scott doesn't disappoint. With an easy style that nevertheless doesn't avoid the complexities, plus very useful examples & exercises to reinforce what you've just read, this is a must-have companion to Sonar whether you're a 'newbie' or a more advanced user.
Excellent guide to Sonar - By: G. Jackson, 06 Feb 2008 I've got many years of experience using computers & software in studios, but had never used Sonar until a few weeks ago, when I had to learn it quickly for a project I was working on. Although it's an excellent programme, Sonar 7 is a bit of a monster, & the prospect of wading through 800+ pages of pdf manuals was not an appealing one.
This book takes you through the programme from installlation, & successfully copes with one of the main problems in this type of tutorial; it is neither too advanced for the beginner nor too basic for those with experience. It is written in an appealingly friendly style which encourages you to delve further into the programme at your own pace, & neither intimidates you with jargon nor patronises.
Worked examples & additional chapters are available via free download from the publisher, & alll in alll it's a book I'm very glad I bought. Highly recommended.
