Should newbie with Pro Audio 9 upgrade to Sonar 3?
Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2003 3:12 am
Picked up a used Aaardvark Pro Q10 and just started using it along with the Pro Audio 9 it came with. I apparantly can upgrade to Sonar 3 for $149. Problems/questions I have:
Pro 9 tells me I can't convert projects recorded in 24bit/96Khz to MP3 format (Only 8 or 16 bit at 44.1 or 48khz). Is there a work around I can do with this software to accomplish this? Does Sonar 3 come with MP3 compression software that can do this and at no extra cost?(Pro 9 gives me 30 day demo, then $29 extra bucks for mp3 converter)
Effects don't seem to work right at 96Khz. Is this a limitation of Pro 9? Does Sonar 3 overcome this?
Almost half a second latency when trying to play synths (just the Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth that's on my PC) with external midi keyboard as controller. I've been told that Sonar 3 comes with excellent sounding synths and that, combined with the AISO drivers would eliminate this problem. Is this true?
Thanks for any help.
