Item Description I got this software for my birthday and it has been sitting on my shelf unused. I have a BOSS BR 1600 and I just am not quite ready for the digital world and computer recording yet. I have opened these to look at and they went right back in the box. The Software is unopened and not registered. I am selling this as new because it has never been used.

And SONAR 8 Producer delivers the go-to production tools you want with the best collection of virtual instruments, mixing, and mastering effects found in any DAW. With unlimited tracks, amazing creative tools, inspiring virtual instruments, the freedom to work with any audio interface or control surface, and the most complete delivery capability for collaboration with users of other DAWS, award-winning SONAR Producer is your best choice in a digital audio workstation. Performance optimizations Although every version of SONAR we shipped in the past had some degree of optimization work, SONAR 8 is the first version of SONAR to which we applied the same engineering process to performance optimizations as we do with other more user visible features. i.e. we established goals, built a specification for the optimizations, split up the work into milestones and tracked the progress of these tasks just as we do for other features. To make testing more deterministic, we devised various internal profiling tools in order to track and measure changes in performance across a variety of hardware platforms on XP as well as Vista.Systems tested included brand new cutting edge platforms from Intel and AMD as well as earlier generation machines. We split up this work into the following classes of performance enhancements for SONAR 8: CPU and kernel level optimizations - use less of your CPU to do the same amount of work User Interface optimizations - faster drawing, scrolling, zooming Driver level optimizations - more efficient access to drivers, minimizing driver state transitions Vista OS specific optimizations - Better use of MMCSS thread priorities, support for custom MMCSS task profiles, new WASAPI support Audio engine optimizations - optimize "hotspots" in our bussing, streaming and mixing code As a result of all these changes, SONAR 8 has the following benefits: greatly minimized kernel usage. This helps provide more "kernel bandwidth" to drivers who need it the most. More kernel bandwidth translates into less potential for audio glitches. Lower CPU usage - translates to better performance at low latency More efficient use of audio drivers - esp with ASIO drivers Better performance on Windows Vista esp X64. Many of the complaints of Vista performance as compared to XP have been solved with SONAR 8. X64 low latency performance should now be on par with X86. Faster application launch Less flicker in GUI. Track view splitters no longer flicker when resizing. More responsive zoom and scroll with large projects. Zooming with wave files now uses 1/2 the RAM with 24-bit or less stereo or mono files used. Better meter performance. Improved thread scheduling by insuring threads are properly distributed on processors. This shows the overall benefits of SONAR 8 as compared to SONAR 7 . ASIO enhancements ASIO devices are now always kept in a started state and not periodically stopped and restarted each time you start playback from the transport. Addressed problem w the first ASIO buffer was not audible (audio metronome first beat is now always clear in ASIO mode). I... read more
