ASK VIDEO DIVES INTO SONAR TRAINING

Seasoned audio engineer and musician Mike Baggley presents the tutorials, guiding users through more than 30 videos. The instructional DVD is suitable for users of Sonar Producer Edition or Studio Edition, and begins with introductory topics such as first run, audio and MIDI setup, new project, and chapters dedicated to getting around Sonar 7. Tracks, transport, toolbars, and the metronome are also covered.

The release's middle chapters are devoted to "heavy-lifting" subjects such as recording audio, recording modes, recording MIDI and looping. The last third of the DVD includes videos that cover editing audio, editing MIDI, layers, and mixing, followed by key commands, the navigator view, folders, the track manager and inspector, and managing audio.

Pricing is $49.99, and Ask Video is offering savings on pre-orders.
