Christian, I have been a Sonar user up untill this last year or so when I
got my PT set up. At this point I run my small scale home recording studio
with Pro Tools. I have clients in weekly to record, mix and do a little
mastering. I can do everything in PT in those three areas as well as I could
in Sonar. I have found that some steps are a little quicker in Sonar IMO,
but having the reliability of the Mac, just one built in screen reader and
the ability to work along side with my sighted counterparts on a fairly
equal playing field, using the same DAW as them and sharing and colaberating
on the same DAW makes up for anything I may miss about Sonar.

Hi christian,
Welcome to the list. In attempting to answer your question, for illustration
purposes, allow me to turn the tables just a little bit. I've never used
Sonar. If I asked you how accessible it is, you might have some of the same
thoughts that I have when I see a question like this. For example, how
"accessible" something is has largely to do with how a person feels about
it. In other words, what's quite accessible to one person might not be very
accessible to another. Further, I have absolutely no idea what your
knowledge and experience is so it makes it really challenging to answer a
general question like that. If I had to answer as best I could, to me, Pro
Tools is very accessible. There are aspects of it that are not yet
accessible so, depending on your specific needs, it might make sense or not.
Until recently, the MIDI Event List was not readable. That didn't mean you
couldn't create MIDI tracks and record and edit them but you couldn't do it
with the control and detail that you could in Sonar. Now you can. If MIDI
was your thing, it wasn't terribly accessible, that is, until now.
The more specific you are with questions of what's possible or not, the
better people on the list will be able to answer. Your question is really a
big one, as simple as it sounds and I'm sure you'd get a better answer if
you could be more specific and tell us about what your needs are, what
you're looking to do and maybe even why you're interested in Pro Tools if
you're already working in Sonar.
Cheers,
Slau

Hi all,
Have just registered with this group.
I am just curious, how accessible is Protools now these days?
I am using Sonar on Windows, but just interested.
Many thanks!
Christian
