SONAR V-Studio 700: Ultimate Music Production System
Introducing the next generation V-STUDIO, the SONAR V-STUDIO 700 provides the ultimate solution for creative music production through a complete offering of finely tuned and tightly-integrated hardware and software.
The ultimate solution for music production
Cakewalk and Roland selected only the very best components in designing SONAR V-STUDIO 700. At the heart of the system is SONAR 8 Producer, the leading DAW in the market today. SONAR 8 Producer gives you everything you need for recording, composing, editing, mixing, and mastering. Cakewalk’s flagship instruments, Dimension Pro (included in SONAR 8 Producer) and Rapture, are also part of the software package.
The software is intelligently matched with state of-the-art hardware that meets Roland’s high standards of quality and reliability. It includes the VS-700C V-STUDIO Console multifunction control surface and VS-700R V-STUDIO 18/24 I/O audio interface which has an integrated Roland Fantom VS hardware synthesizer based on the world-renowned Fantom synthesizer.
Taken as a whole, SONAR V-STUDIO 700 offers the “tactile feel” of working in a traditional studio, but in a way that takes advantage of everything modern
technology has to offer. The system represents the best that software and hardware have to offer with amazing control, integration, and sound quality.
