Between ASIO, MME and WDM dpend all of your machine.

Making more cabbage if you want to use a surface CONTRL
Technology Act is not vraimant intuitive.
If you're lucky there may not be a default preset.

The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
A black dot. There are three tutorials that Courrent APRS and the rest good luck!

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

What is the configuration of your computer? (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Disk / sound card ..)
Notebook Core 2 Duo with 4GB of ram

The software works he correctly on this configuration?
Some crashes audio engine random image fawn (rare) that seems to come from poor management of dual-core as a overhead in the calculations of the machine.

Some Bugs bizare. Yesterday all of my automation project was because I DCAL lment a move in a track that she had no automation. A shame! In short, I am good at everything again.

What performance? (If quantifiable)
Test with dozens of audio tracks, as many buses, and effects across a couple of virtual instruments.
We arrive to work without much problem even without Gler tracks

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
6 months

What is the particular feature you like best and least?
<img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" /> The terrain is fairly soft and can do what you want, the audio editing laz musical composition.
The bundle of tools provided with the XL version justifies the cart in price between the two versions and can do a lot of cool stuff.

The new interface APRS a little running-in phase actually simplifies the use of the software.

<img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt="sad" /> For some points against it frustrating though that show quickly the limits of this version:
<ul>

Incomplte automation. For example it can automate the 'Mute' of a track but not a bus.

The bundle of audio effects would MRIT DTRE a little more balance. Three reverbs, equalizers by 2 against a poor noise gate / compressor and no flanger ...

Can not make the side chain with appropriate plugins.

Unable to save the diposition of windows when reopening a project.

Can be cut in half by an audio object against it can not pick both.

...

</ul>

In short some frustrations vis vis this logiel, which I think should be voluntary.
And yes ilm necessary that Mr. sells Cakewalk Sonar suprieures versions.
Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Traktion, Samplitude LE, Energy XT.

How do you report qualitprix?
The XL version if you look at the bundle effects / instruments INTERESTED seems more for those who want to engage in the computer music.
on the other hand, ds that we start a little grater. Quickly found the limits of this version of the range.

Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...
I performed the ugrade version 6 Version 7XL. Quite again I would pass directly Sonar Studio.
