My current production machine is a 12 year old XP box. I bought an OEM copy of
Windows 7 hoping to install that on a Mac which would eventually give me the
flexibility of migrating between SONAR and Logic. But I missed the boat on
buying a Mac that could run Windows 7 under Boot Camp. I will continue to use
my XP box with sonar 8.53 and CT until something irretrievably dies.

I'm just feeling that, at some point, The purchase of new hardware should
probably coincide with the purchase of a new software solution if it's
accessible.

Why moove at all? If Sonar 8.5.3 is working for you then you can keep using
it. If there is some feature that you don't have access too then by all
means look at something else. Like all of you I probably will look at
alternative packages such as Reaper however, I am turning out professional
mixed and mastered products in Sonar 8.5.3 so can't see me moving away from
it for some time. Further more, I haven't had a single complaint from
clients/producers about what I am using so if they are happy then, I am happy
:-)

I love what DD has gave us, everyday I appreciate Bill and David's hard work
and commitment. I believe that the latest sonar updates will never be
accessible due to sonar re-designing the whole program from the ground up.
Like Kevin I am looking shortly to move from sonar, the big question is,
where to move.

Can't be done. You will have to save out the wav and MIDI data as
separate
files for each Sonar project.

Subject: [ddots-l] Batch conversion of SONAR files


Guys,

I realize I am getting ahead of myself with this question. However, at
some point, I'm g
oing to
have to migrate from SONAR to some other DAW. When
I do that, ideally, I will want to have access to decades of SONAR
projects
which contain a mix of MIDI and audio.

I realize that I can export all the audio to WAV files. I suppose I
could export all the individual MIDI tracks or save them as MIDI type1.

Ideally, it would be cool if it were possible to do a batch conversion
from CWP to some other combination of formats that would give me each
project with the MIDI and audio content somehow related and intact. Doing
this on anything like a one at a time basis would simply be nuts. My only
reason for keeping some version of sonar around would be to
have
access to
all this old material.

Any ideas?
Kevin
