Sonar 5 ignite!,

This review is from: Sonar 5 Ignite!: The Visual Guide for New Users (Paperback)
This book is really for beginners, as the book states. However the levels of this book is so elementary, that unless you know nothing about sequencers and software of this caliber,then get it . It is well laid out, with lots of visual aid, to help you to start with this great program,of which just about everything
in Ignite is covered in the 10 tutorials that are included in the program. I was mistaken, thinking that 300+ pages would cover more in depth this software.You probably outgrow this book very quickly .

This review is from: Sonar 5 Ignite!: The Visual Guide for New Users (Paperback)
When I first started reading the book, the concepts seemed extremely easy. However, the book quickly gets into more in-depth material (in an odd order, however). Be sure to follow along in the program while reading for maximum effectiveness. Recommended for anyone who has not used Sonar.
