SONAR X3 Producer versions

v20.0 [Oct 14, 2013]
- You get unlimited simultaneous Audio & MIDI tracks, FX, Sends and full VST3 support with our industry leading 64-bit mix engine.
- The smartest and quickest method for working with multiple takes. Record the same part as many times as you like using the new Comping record mode, and when you’re finished, our speed comping accelerates your workflow so that you can isolate, edit and promote your strongest performances into one unified flawless track. Comping at its core improves the overdubbing process and streamlines the post-recording and editing experience.
- VST3 support is now fully integrated across all versions of SONAR X3. That means superior plugin management, low CPU loads, and improved visual workspace. It’s perfectly integrated into SONAR X3’s browser and shows you VST3 and VST2 plugins side by side. SONAR X3 automatically detects new VST plugins so you never have to rescan, and if you have a project using the VST 2 version of a plugin that also supports VST3, SONAR will update it and keep all of your settings intact.
- SONAR X3’s brilliant audio engine captures the clarity and elegance of your music. Its inspiring smooth sound and sonic characteristics digitize your performances with the utmost precision. You can bounce your tracks down in minutes with our 64 bit double precision engine, record up to 192kHz with low latency monitoring and mix with confidence using our sample-accurate plugin delay compensation.
- Melodyne Essential is now fully integrated into SONAR X3 Producer and Studio. This means the best pitch correction, time stretching, and audio to MIDI conversion in the business are at your command. Whether there’s a flat note in a vocal, or you want to adjust phrasing, Melodyne makes it a snap to polish your recordings.
- YouTube is one of the most widely used social media platforms in the world for musicians and artists. SONAR X3 integrates YouTube’s publishing capabilities right into the control bar so you don’t even have to leave the program to share videos with your subscribers.
- Upload your projects anywhere, anytime - without having to leave your DAW. Backup all of your work and never worry about losing a single shred of data ever again. Store your work as long as you want. Now, every new SONAR X3 user gets 5GB free store on Gobbler’s cloud. Share with your friends and colleagues with a single click of the mouse. Gobbler will do the rest.
- Adding color to your sessions makes light work out of organizing complex and track-heavy projects. Colorize every track, or just your busses, and SONAR X3 will automatically update tracks routed to that bus to match. Custom track colors saves you time so that you can move from console view to track view and back instantly. Customize groups of tracks like drums, horn sections, and background vocals to streamline your mixing and editing workflow. ProChannel modules follow your custom track colors allowing you to apply your favorite effects quicker and easier than ever before.
- Boost, cut and produce with the most visual EQ that Cakewalk has ever offered. Once you experience the QuadCurve EQ’s Zoom Panel you will never touch another EQ again. With the built-in spectrum analyzer you can use both your eyes and ears to accurately sculpt your tracks.
- The Tape Emulator is the newest addition to your arsenal of ProChannel modules. Activate the sound of priceless analog tape machines right from your studio chair. Then pair it with the Console Emulator for the complete sound of the classic pre-digital era.
- SONAR X3 includes over a hundred finely tuned tweaks, little enhancements and general improvements throughout, inspired by customer feedback, making it the most refined and solid version of SONAR yet.
