Anderton’s New SONAR Book

Cakewalk/SONAR guru Craig Anderton has released a book with Wizoo called SONAR 3 – Mixing & Mastering. (That’s mixing, not re-mixing.) The introductory chapter on mixing is available in PDF format here. Some of it reads pretty corny and obvious with sprinklings of that down-home flavor (I’m guessing) SONAR users eat up:

The musician participates in the mix on any one of several levels, from simply observing the producer to making sure the production remains true to the original intent of the music.

The engineer is the one at the session who doesn’t drink, smoke, talk much or complain, and is responsible for translating the producer’s needs into a technological solution.

Despite this, there is interesting stuff buried in there.
