The Sonoma Software
The Sonoma Audio Workstation contains two main components, an editor and a mixer. They run
concurrently and they are both accessed through the same program, Sonoma.exe. Each component
has its own set of windows.
1.3.1
The Sonoma Editor
The Sonoma Editor runs in a single window. It contains menus and toolbars that you will use to
create, save, record, and edit multi-channel audio documents called edit decision lists or EDLs. Each
EDL is a separate document and the editor can display multiple EDLs inside its window. Chapter 2
describes the Sonoma Editor.
1.3.2
The Sonoma Mixer
The Sonoma Mixer controls the signal routing in the system and the audio processing applied to the
signal path. The mixer contains three main windows: a patch bay (router), a set of channel strips, and
a metering/global control section. Chapter 3 describes the Sonoma Mixer.
1.3.3
Installing Software Upgrades
From time to time you may receive a CD-ROM with a Sonoma software upgrade. This CD will
contain an automatic installer. Insert the CD in your drive. Locate the CD on your desktop and click
on the installer file. The installer will be named SonomaXXX.exe, where XXX defines the version
number. The icon for the Sonoma installer is a picture of a PC with a box of floppy disks standing
