Hi Andy,I too only know of one totally visually impaired user of Cubase, He just got Cubase 5 the free softsynth are apparently brilliant but the user friendly side of it is awful not very accessible at all. He is now seriously looking at Sonar, this guy has used cubase for at least 15 years to my knowledge?
Sonar with caketalking scrip's is very friendly.I don't get on with computers, even my toaster doesn't pop up in the morning well, unless I press the Viagra button.
Sonar is as simple as arrow down through the tracks and Shift plus down arrow and you are on the bus tracks, it's brilliant!
That Cubase le4 will be very light weight in comparison to Sonar 8.5 (Which I will eventually upgrade too?) I stick with Sonar 7 because it's like spending the night with a lovely woman who's only had one partner. I feel relaxed, it's not too complicated, I don't feel emasculated by Sonar 7.
Sonar 8.5 I imagine is like spending the night with Madonna! I'm not quite ready for that?

There's only one person that I know of who's using Qubass and he is having to use a lot of macros to do that. You would be better with Sonar if you'reon Windows or, perhaps Pro Tools on the MAC, when it comes out.

I have a lot ofexperience in general studio track-laying from days of yore using a Clarionmulti-track (with a cassette tape, 4 tracks with ping-pong layering), and later with a Roland digital sequencer (the MT-200), but this program is totally new to me (I have used CoolEdit quite a bit, also). Is this a good program to install and start using if I want to start my recording "career" up again? What are the best things about this program? and, more importantly, what features does it lack? Please, feel free to offer any tips you may have to make my initial exposure to this method of recording more friendly. I imagine that I can figure out the basics, but please tell me about any snags, glitches, tips, and tricks you all may have up your sleeves. Thanks so much for your advice!
