SONAR 4 Power! is one of the first, if not the first, intermediate to advanced level books available on this newest version of SONAR. Falling within the successful Power! series and next in line to "SONAR 3 Power!", this book offers clearly written instruction on SONAR, one of the most popular music software applications on the Windows platform. Readers learn major features like editing and playing music, and then delve into lesser-known aspects such as audio mixing and automation, creating sheet music, composing with loops, DX (software synthesis) instruments, and producing music for the Web. Written for intermediate users with discussion on some advanced topics, this book includes thorough explanation and examples, and walks readers through every aspect of the software. Rather than just describing the features of the program and how they work, the book digs deep down into the software and the why and how behind it all. With over 700,000+ users and growing, the need for a book on all of SONAR's features is strong, and has continued to be met by our reliable SONAR guides.
