SONAR LE

DIGITAL AUDIO WORKSTATION



SONAR LE Overview.

SONAR LE is a software application from Cakewalk and is included free of charge with your new ZED-R16 mixing con-
sole.

SONAR LE is a first step into the world of sequencing and hard disk recording on the Windows platform. You’ll be able
to record 8 tracks simultaneously from your ZED-R16 mixer, arrange songs, then play back 8 tracks simultaneously to
your ZED-R16 mixer via the FireWire bus. You can decide whether the SONAR family of products is right for you. If
you choose to upgrade your copy of SONAR LE to a more full-featured version, like SONAR Producer or Home Stu-
dio Editions, you’ll now be able to do so at significant savings.

We will describe the basic steps of installing the software and getting started here, for more comprehensive help or
technical support please use the Help files in SONAR LE or visit the SONAR LE website:

The website will have details on registering your product and upgrading it should you wish. There are also tutorials to
get you started.


SONAR LE is the most complete OEM production software solution available today. Unlike other OEM applications,

ments, 6 MIDI effects, and 14 audio effects.
SONAR LE has been updated with new features from its acclaimed SONAR Producer, making SONAR LE the first na-
tive Windows DAW for Windows XP, Windows x64, and Windows Vista.
