DAW 2.0 has arrived
Sonar has been one of the most popular DAW’s on the market for nearly a decade now. And we've learned a lot along the way. But things have changed over the past ten years, so we felt it was time to take our more than 20 years experience in creating music software, combine it with cutting edge music creation tools, and wrap it in a totally modern design.


Skylight - Welcome to your workspace
Let’s face it - constantly shuffling and resizing lots of floating windows is so last decade. Precisely suited for today’s music production, Sonar X1's unparalleled user interface design speeds up workflow and provides a clean and modern creation environment. Skylight introduces a next generation workspace and ushers in a new level of simplicity by providing an intelligent interface that moves beyond contemporary, single-window design and layout clutter.

    Sonar X1 Producer Music Production Software Features
    • Unlimited audio and MIDI tracks for recording any sized project
    • Track Templates, FX Chains, and Step Sequencer Patterns that make getting great sounds easy
    • Speed up your workflow with the unparalleled user interface design
    • Drag drum patterns, instrument riffs, virtual instruments and FX, even multitrack templates
    • TruPianos Amber features incredible piano sounds within the software
    • Fix the timing of audio tracks with the click of a mouse
    • 4-Element Wavetable Sampling Synthesizer, Includes over 1500 patch presets, 8 GB of content

    Browser - All your content unified

    The completely redesigned Browser organizes all of your content into one, easily managed place. Drag and drop just about anything you can think of from the Browser directly to your workspace.

    Inspector - Find what you’ve been looking for
    Get all your clip, track, and channel data - centralized and at your fingertips. The new Inspector shows a wealth of data in a small footprint and allows for ergonomic track mixing. With Skylight, it’s also fully collapsible, expandable, dockable and floatable.

    Screensets - Just the way you remembered it Per-project Screensets remember every window position, size and state and are accessed directly from the Control Bar or via your qwerty keyboard. Default Screensets are ready-to-go for just about any production scenario imaginable or create your own Screensets for tracking, mixing, jamming or experimenting. Recall everything - exactly the way you left it.

    Smart Tools
    - Work smarter, not harder
    Sonar’s tools have been completely revamped for X1. Most functions are now performed with a single implement that switches automatically based on context. This dramatically speeds up editing and arranging by eliminating the need to constantly switch tools.

    Control Bar - Total control freak
    Access crucial functions quickly and clearly with the new modular Control Bar. Modules logically group related functions and can be arranged to suit your desire. It’s fully expandable, dockable and floatable.

    MultiDock - A place for everything
    The MultiDock is an integral part of the Skylight interface that allows you to dock and easily access any of Sonar’s views all in one place. The Console View, Step Sequencer, Piano Roll - even instruments and effects can all be contained within one consolidated area. For ultimate flexibility, the MultiDock itself can be quickly collapsed or expanded and can even be placed on an entirely separate monitor.

    ProChannel - Mix on a professional console any big studio would envy
    The mixing console is the nerve center of the studio and at the heart of every great sounding track. Just like in the “real world”, the mixing consoles in DAWs are not all created equal. Available exclusively in Sonar X1 Producer, the ProChannel expands Sonar’s already impressive console with big, epic pro-studio sound built right in to every channel.

    Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
    This is a well thought out studio application from beginning to end.

    What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
    First of all, Sonar X1 Producer Boast 64bit floating 384kHz audio processing that can be noticed during mastering. Secondy, it has tons of useful award winning VST plug-ins. Even though Sonar X1 Producer is highly self-contained, it play well with others.
    Ease of Use
    How easy is this product to use? How easy is the product to use with other products? Did it take long for you to learn to use this product? Was the manual helpful? How playable do you consider this product to be?
    Sonar X1 Producer is also user friendly. When used with ACT (Active Controller Tecnology) Contoller/Surfaces (Ex.Cakewalk Roland A300 Pro Controller), setups are even faster ! You don't have to be a pro with Sonar X1 Producer. The "Whatever screen you are on help center really comes in hand for anyone new to DAWS or Sonar X1 Producer. This Feature cuts down the time it takes to hunt down answers for immediate question, which in turn means more production time ! (ie. You even learn as you go without losing creativity.)

    For the money, Sonar X1 Producer is a TRUE VALUE!! Also, when purchased with one of the Cakewalk/Roland APro USB Controller Keyboards, the value is even better !!

Sonar X1 Producer's "Skylight View" removes all the clutter and allows full access to all the most commonly used daily feature in your studio, and Sonar X1 lets YOU decide! Sonar X1 Producer has a very realistic look to match its respone.

    A HUGE step forward - Awesome
    Quality
    Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
    I've used Cubase in the past and Sonar X1 Producer is miles ahead of Cubase. Cubase almost seems like it's meant for higher tech people over the creative process. Sonar has all the technical power of Cubase but appears to be designed from the ground up to help support the creative process. I LOVE this software
    Features
    What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
    Comes with TONS of plug-ins right out of the box. The learning curve is twice as easy as Cubase. Everything is just a click or two away making the workflow very quick and painless. The 64-Bit engine really sings on my computer and I almost never get an audio glitch.
    Ease of Use
    How easy is this product to use? How easy is the product to use with other products? Did it take long for you to learn to use this product? Was the manual helpful? How playable do you consider this product to be?
    I learned all the basics of Sonar X1 Producer in a matter of just a few hours. I was able to record audio tracks, midi tracks, and mix high-level audio the first. day. Cubase took me a few weeks to get this comfortable but Cubase was NEVER this stable.
    Value
    Was this item an overall good value?
    $100 less than Cubase and it's better than Cubase. Need I say more?
