"My partners Paul Romero (left), Steve Baca and myself (right) have been using Cakewalk software since version 3.0, and let me tell you, the way it has evolved into SONAR is fantastic!

Our projects often have 200 or more MIDI tracks, and I find SONAR to be the most user-friendly software for huge scoring projects. This many tracks might seem daunting, but SONAR handles it like a champ. I love that you have access to the mixing commands right in the Track view. I group all of my instruments by section, which makes it easy to mix, and it keeps the creative process moving.

When it comes time to track the instruments SONAR's sync is always right on the money. I also often fly stuff back and forth from my Pro Tools rig and I have never had a sync issue.
