  1. Ahh, I am using a workspace! Made it probably 10+ years ago so that'll probably be the culprit. Just another weird random functionality Bandlab must have added and said nothing about changing from the default.
  2. So I've been getting more and more used to the switch from Sonar Platinum to Cakewalk Bandlab, but I'm running into a really baffling bug(?) where my keyboard shortcuts keep resetting themselves, or at least some of them. I know for a fact that the "E" key used to toggle all effects on and off in Sonar Platinum, but it's completely unassigned in Cakewalk, so I go into my preferences > keyboard shortcuts and assign it, but whenever I close out and come back or go to another project or something, it unassigns itself and I have to go through the hassle of doing it again just to toggle all of the effects on and off when I just want a quick dry listen while mixing or whatever. Same thing happens when I try to assign ctrl+shift+S to "Save As". What's the deal here? Is this a bug or an intended feature? Is it perhaps tied to templates?
  3. I'm aware of what quick groups are and it's not what I asked about at all. In all versions of Sonar at the very least since X1, everything would be quick grouped by default when you pressed ctrl and adjusted a parameter. I'm asking if it's possible to have that be the default again. Would be a total pain in the ***** to have to select like 30 different tracks or buses before just to adjust all of them instead of y'know, just pressing one button and doing what I wanted to do immediately.
  4. I've been wanting to switch over from Sonar Platinum for years now but every time I try Cakewalk by Bandlab there are just so many tiny little nuisances that just don't exist in Sonar and were often just default features. Quick example: in Sonar when I'm looking at the mixer and ctrl+click and drag a fader down, it adjusts all faders at the same time. In Cakewalk though, ctrl+clicking does absolutely nothing to a fader unless you have all of the faders selected. Wasn't the entire original point of being able to ctrl+click a fader to avoid having to select them all in the first place? Another small but annoying example, why are the MIDI CC controls individualized now? What I mean is, if I open up the Piano Roll and the Controller Pane, when I look at the Controller Pane it used to be able to be divided for each type of MIDI CC control in Sonar. If I wanted to see both my modulation and my velocity, I could do that. But in Bandlab for some stupid and unknown reason, you can only select viewing one at a time by highlighting it in the bottom left corner. Who thought this was a good idea and needed to be changed? For every great feature that Bandlab added to Cakewalk, it seems like they also took away a great feature from Sonar. What's the deal here? Why can't these have just been optional toggles instead of brand new default features? It's tiny little things like this that completely disrupt the workflow and are seemingly impossible to even google a solution for. Are there even solutions for these issues of mine?
