New features in SONAR 8.5

Studioverb2

Figure 150. StudioVerb2

Studioverb2 provides very dense and warm reverberation with 32-bit floating point implementation.

This eliminates the digital grunge and harshness that occurs even in the best studio reverberation

systems, which are implemented using less advanced fixed point processing. The Studioverb2

provides extremely high efficiency, typically using half of the CPU load of other premium reverb plug-

ins.

Step Sequencer 2.0

The enhanced Step Sequencer makes it easier than ever to compose patterns using a grid.

New enhancements include:

• The Step Sequencer interface has been streamlined to be more efficient and powerful.

• The Step Sequencer is no longer dependent on drum maps, and rows can be assigned directly to

the track output, or any available software instrument.

• Option to preserve the original timing of note events when converting a MIDI clip to a step

sequencer clip.

• Per note flam and time offset.
