Well I did get a copy of Sonar with my mic but haven't had much success as of
yet with learning it. Are the Cake Talk scrips something additional I need? If
so, where abouts do I obtain them?
I'm not working to much with audio on my Mac as I'm trying to see what seems to
be the best avenue to take with production with blindness. I am totally blind
too just so you all know.
Thanks for the reply
