Sonar and windows, 2 products which went the wrong direction. So it was a no brainer to switch to Logic Pro. Never looked back.

Apple and OSX, 2 products which went the wrong direction. So it was a no brainer to switch to cross-platform softwared. Never looked back.

Dúnedain and tooneba, 2 users which went the wrong direction. So it was a no brainer to switch to thejonsolo. Never looked back.

(From Sonar, Cubase would be a great step up. Workflow is better than ever.)

I´ve started the thread with many questions... now i got more! hahaha
Nhaaaa! Thank you all, i don´t have a lot of spare time, so, videos will surely be my first aproach to these daws. S1 got my atention.
Maybe reaper too.
The PT plugins thing got me off, and i´ve allready mentioned that Cubase was a no-go for me too.

One other concern of my daily workflow, Sonar has this very usefull Drum Maps (where you see the piano roll very different, especifically for drum creation) is there such a feature in S1 or Reaper?

Not quite sure what you mean but alt+5 in reaper pianoroll is "normal" view and alt+7 is "drum mode".

Draws diamonds instead that basic midi line.

Easier question to answer would be "is there something Reapern CAN'T do?"

*edit*

Okay I googled that "sonar drum maps". Looks similar to what you can have in Reaper. Though reaper doesn't have any built in drum machine like ableton or bitwig has. You have to turn "track list" on from top left of the piano roll -view to see wanted midi/audio channels.

There MAY be other ways to do that but that's how I know it

*Even more edit*

Of course if you have some drum tool like marvelous Poise or Geist, you can see those drum lines in one pianoroll without need to hassle with several tracks.

This kind of view with Poise. You can also add some humanization by painting midi data you want with right mouse, then pressing "H". It opens a window where you can add how strong the effect is. Changes velocity and timing.

Drum maps as defined are setting the incoming note messages to specific pitches used by the manufacturer or developer witch are different then the host being used.

Studio One can set up the midi editor to drum notes I.e.drum names instead of notes. You still have to map them manually if they are different and save them out as far as I can tell.

Hopefully someone else knows better.

I briefly saw it on a video, and it seems very similar. I still didn´t gave it a chance, but S1 seems the more sonar´ish of all the DAWs mentioned here.

Daw switch from Sonar:

Anything else

Sorry couldn't help it.

Seriously though? I will recommend Cubase to the OP.

It´s ok you don´t like it. Its a DAW, no Pizza

Really, It worked great for years to me and it still does. I just want to ´futureproof-me´ because i really don´t like newers version.

DAW Add/Switch, From Sonar to...?
