SONAR X1 Expanded supports Music XML, the universal digital sheet music interchange and distribution format. Integrated SoundCloud support provides a simple and efficient way to share music with family, friends, and fans automatically via Twitter, Facebook, and other popular social media sites. Drag and drop FX Chains from the Browser, between tracks, or to individual clips.Īdding to SONAR X1's exceptional audio delivery options, users can now upload finished songs in any bit /sample rate from SONAR directly to SoundCloud by simply connecting to their SoundCloud account from within SONAR. Knobs and sliders are assignable to any effect parameters within the chain and are available for remote control. FX Chains 2.0 expands the concept from simple effects container to fully customizable plug-in interface, complete with user-definable skins. Introduced in SONAR X1, FX Chains provide a powerful and flexible way to organize and create combinations of multiple effects including DSP-based effects. And like their Passive-Active EQ design provides smooth, one-knob, frequency saturation for adding just the right amount of tube warmth to any track. Softube's Saturation Knob ProChannel module borrows from Softube's famous German FET distortion and compression circuitry modeling. Favorite combinations can be set as default for tracks and busses. ProChannel strips can be customized to have any combination of installed modules available on any channel. Now the ProChannel experience further expands with fully modular capability. SONAR X1 Producer's impressive ProChannel console strip already provides a number of options to get pro-studio sound in the box with its highly musical EQ, PC76 U-Type/classic FET and PC4K S-Type bus compressors, tube saturation, and flexible drag & drop routing. Read on for the official word on Sonar X1 Expanded and the PC4K S-Type Expander/Gate Module. Finally, you should be aware that October will see Cakewalk introduce the Sonar X1 Production Suite, which contains Sonar X1 Producer, Sonar X1 Expanded, the PC4K S-Type Expander/Gate Module and the Z3TA+ 2 synth.
