Jul 26, 2008 - I have sonar 6 and reason 3, I was planning on using them both together but have no idea how to work sonar even after reading the manual. I learned Reason in about a week it's so easy to learn the work flow is great and the rack is awesome I wish sonar was a little more organized over time I should get it down but it takes some time.

Jul 26, 2008 - don't use this mixing style, 1 tip,hide your mixing style..
blackamigas Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - i always hide the way i mixed and mastered the song,if the band will get their data and load it in their pc they'll gonna see and know how you mixed their songs...
MagMusic Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - For Cakewalk: Are you allowed to tell who the performer is and what the song is? Was this track an included project with S6?

Jul 26, 2008 - can anyone help me please? i want to know how to find the mixing console in the program and how can i turn up midi volume? thanks.

Jul 26, 2008 - djersoy, when you open Sonar 6 click "views" in the menu and make sure "show toolbars" is checked. Then you will see an icon on the toobar that looks like three sliders on a mixing console. Click that and it will open the mixing console in Sonar. Midi volume is usually turned up or down by a control number of 1 to 127 in the midi settings.

Jul 26, 2008 - How do i get unwanted feedback? I am using a Line 6 Toneport UX2 external hardware with Gearbox software that has a noise gate that is perfect. Everytime I try to record in Sonar I get massive extra sound and my noise gate seems to be overwrited. Any tips? Would the Sonar compressor help? Thanks
CakewalkSoftware Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Are you recording with a mic or are you recording a direct input? Also what instrument are you recording.
sunsetsabertooth Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - I am using a direct input, Line 6 Toneport UX2 and I am recording electric guitar. I don't get feedback because of my noisegate selection, however when I have Sonar 6 Producer open I get feedback. When I try to deaden the strings especially.
CakewalkSoftware Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Well if input monitoring is enabled on a track in SONAR when you point your guitar pick ups towards the speakers feedback will happen, just like with a guitar amp.
sunsetsabertooth Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Yea but I have a noise gate that eliminates all feedback. I've been recording and my settings got all messed up and my guitar recording sounds horrible. Is there a way to do a complete wash of all of my custom settings and start fresh with the factory defaults? I've tried reinstalling it several times and it seems like it's chronically messed up! Please help! should i call cakwalk support?
CakewalkSoftware Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - You can just do a fresh install and the original setting will be restored. But you might also want to call support to see if you can avoid a resinstall.

Jul 26, 2008 - can you use rewire with sonar?
IIntellex Says:

ElectricLightForever Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Does Sonar has a noise removal feature for audio tracks or will I have to purchase a plug in that does that?
messengercrow Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Hello, I'm getting some errors when I open Sonar 6 that I have no midi output...I set the output on microsoft GW synth....but still it doesn't work...I don't know what's wrong? can anybody help? I can send you the error screen shots.
CakewalkSoftware Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - You can use its built in EQ to remove Noise, but you may find that you will want a dedicated Noise reduction plug-in
CakewalkSoftware Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - You should contact support, it's free for registered customers. They can walk you through the setup

Jul 26, 2008 - hello como uso la expresion y RPN Pitch Bend Sensitivity? ayuda! en sonar 6
bookie175 Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - If I was a person that was just learning how to use cakewalk you are of no help. Reason I say this is because you are naming all these parts of the program which we have no idea what the hell you're talking about. You say it's easy but that's easy for someone who knows what he's doing. You got to have some sense of explanation becuase right now you're doing none of that.

Jul 26, 2008 - Yes you could mix through the console in real-time, but you would want to make sure that you have a powerful PC and a high quality audio interface with good drivers so that the audio latency would be negligible
