Computers have changed the way we make music. For less than a thousand dollars (including the computer), you can have a studio in your bedroom that rivals the capabilities of million-dollar studios of a not-so-distant past. One of the best tools at the recording musician's disposal is SONAR Home Studio. But to truly maximize your creativity, you need more than just the program and the manual---you need guidance on how to actually use the program to make music, guidance included in this book. Making Music with SONAR Home Studio shows you how to use the software as a creative tool, not just a recording program. It goes beyond the user manual to help you get started recording the right way in your home studio. Everything is explained in easy-to-understand language, from optimizing your recording setup to composing, recording, and mixing down a song.

For decades performers, instrumentalists, composers, technicians and sound engineers continue to manipulate sound material. They are trying with more or less success to create, to innovate, improve, enhance, restore or modify the musical message. The sound of distorted guitar of Jimi Hendrix, Pierre Henry’s concrete music, Pink Flyod’s rock psychedelic, Kraftwerk ‘s electronic music, Daft Punk and rap T-Pain, have let emerge many effects: reverb, compression, distortion, auto-tune, filter, chorus, phasing, etc. The aim of this book is to introduce and explain these effects and sound treatments by addressing their theoretical and practical aspects.

Digitech's latest, the GNX4 guitar workstation, is an extremely clever box. It combines signal processing, RAM recording, a computer interface, drum machine, MP3/MIDI sequence playback, a MIMI interface and more...in fact, maybe it's a bit too clever because it can be hard to wrap your head around all the ways in which these bits work together. There are a lot of good features just 'below the surface' and they're relatively easy to miss without the guidance of a pro, like author Craig Anderton. He'll show you how to get the most out of your guitar workstation.
