Thanks for all the replies and advice on this topic. To make a long story 
somewhat short, I have prepped 30 songs with click tracks to record my band's 
new demo.  I have added an organ in each song to know exactly where we are 
during the recording.  Since the time required to record maybe 10 of these 
songs is limited due to our gigs and other obligations, I decided to do as much 
as I can beforehand.  I plan on going ahead and singing a scratch track and 
going ahead and put my guitars on for real.  I'd hate to do all this work and 
then have one of the other members next month to say it's too slow, and then 
have to erase my perfected guitar rifts.  (It's not like we all live on the 
same block--we live hours apart and have day jobs and families.  Priority 
speeches don't work anymore, and I know this isn't your problem--it's mine.)  
My only thoughts about this is to export what I have, the click tracks and 
organs, and send these via email or CD to each member for tempo approval before 
recording the guitars.  Or I can go ahead and record several guitars, archive 
them, and then later adjust with the Snap if it is possible with Sonar 7.  If I 
have sighted assistance, will the stretching or shrinking of analog guitar 
sound as good, or is there some decrease of sound quality with the Snap?

Well that may be what it says in the Cake Talking tutorial however, audiosnap 
will definitely do this for you, smile.  A number of us have been playing with 
this feature in Sonar and got it working.

Hello.
     For one of my first recordings, I had already recorded audio and decided 
that the tempo was too slow.  After I changed the tempo, the audio didn't match 
the new tempo so I had to re-record my audio.  I remembered (after the fact) 
that it was written in the Caketalking tutorial that changing the tempo after 
recording audio really doesn't work.  Fortunately, I was able to re-record my 
audio with the new tempo, but I learned a good lesson about making sure you're 
at the tempo you want before recording vocals.
                    God bless you.
                    Bobby Lusk.

Hello.  Let's say you have recorded several MIDI tracks and are satisfied with 
the tempo.  And then you recorded a vocal track.  The singer says the project 
is too slow.  Can you delete the newly recorded vocal track and then change the 
tempo?  or is Sonar  set to where once you record audio, then the tempo change 
feature won't work?  
Is this where the snap feature would come into play in regards to changing the 
tempo of the MIDI tracks and then setting the tempo of the vocal track to the 
new project tempo?  Is this possible?
