Your computer is often used with other equipment: sound cards, MIDI equipment, and
digital tape decks or other digital recording tools. All these devices can have their own built-
in clocks or timing mechanisms.
When several pieces of equipment are used together, it's important that they operate in
synchronization. For this to happen, all the equipment must rely on the same source of clock
or timing information. SONAR lets you use many different types of synchronization so that
you can get your work done quickly and efficiently.
