Not Liking the look of the New Sonar Interface
sjoens replied to mark foster's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
@John Vere I just learned you have to right click the ProChannel EQ screen to select it. Nice option. Sorry @Noel Borthwick , not knowing this may have led to my comment. I'll keep an eye on it. -
... offer CbB as an As-Is, one-time paid option with no support for those who don't want or like the new Sonar?

Not Liking the look of the New Sonar Interface
sjoens replied to mark foster's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Spectrum was added to the small EQ screens on CV strips and the PC module. Before it was exclusive to the flyout. It is a little glitchy ATM. MSR buttons are all in the same location. Just use muscle memory and you'll be fine. The one that got me was the headphone icon for Input Echo. Color strips are OFF by default. Same place as before but you have to check the box to see 'em. Preferences > Customization > Colors > Track Strips. -
Shhh! Don't tell anyone. Sonar is now available
sjoens replied to John Vere's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
https://www.cakewalk.com/ > scroll to bottom of page > Cakewalk Sonar > Download. This is a pre-beta demo far from finished. No saving allowed. Once installed, ignore the reoccurring red Activate nag toast and Start Screens unless you want to open a BandLab account, which will allow you to give them money and save projects, among other things. If the nag screens appear while you have a menu open and everything freezes. Hit ESCAPE to continue. -

It's been on the EQ flyout for some years. -

I didn't see the other post till after I replied.

True. But that can be fixed W/O shortening the name.

Yes. ?

Looks like the piano isn't really set up to be used with a DAW but more of a player-piano from midi files. However, like 57Gregy said, you can do it using the Headphone jacks. They are stereo (TRS) and most audio interfaces have mono inputs - so you would need a Y-splitter: 2-1/4" mono (TS) to 1-1/4" stereo (TRS) adapter. Also known as an Insert Cable (male) or Breakout Cable (female). You would plug this into a USB audio interface Line Input and record the signal into a DAW's Audio track.

CV strips are wider but display less text? Due to bigger icons and dropdown arrows maybe. MASTE vs. MASTER 1: Sonar CbB
-
Other DAWs use multiple sets of png's at differing resolutions to facilitate scaling. Also not very theme making friendly. If most of the theming for Sonar is assigning new colors to objects, this could be done easily in Preferences > > Colors the same as Sonar 8.5 and earlier.

Screenshots work great. MIxcraft v10 for the most part looks identical to v9 but all the png's were replaced with svg files. Cool thing about Mixcraft is you can swap quite a few of the svg's back to png's or even RGB color codes & vice-versa as all their GUI files are exposed in folders. A very versatile format. Also very easy to mess up.

You did. I was just differentiating between the 2 tools. I couldn't find reference to the Smart Tool method in the manual.
-
Smart Tool requires right-click drag. Select Tool requires left-click drag.

But wait there's more... 2. Browser has same issue as Inspector with CbB projects. 3. Browser won't dock beneath MultiDock in new projects so can't create full width MultiDock view unless Browser is floating. 4. Entire Browser experience seems to have display issues - can't resize views and separation bar disappears when it's open.
-
-
Some Control Bar fonts are actually smaller than in CbB.
-
Yeah, sorry forgot to mention that. Won't happen if views don't overlap. My standard screenset has always been full screen MultiDock.
-
A new graphic issue: When opening a project saved in CbB, the Inspector bleeds thru from underneath MultiDock views.
-
I do have the same visual issue as Heinz where sometimes the cc's are displayed while stretching and sometimes they're not. Purely cosmetic, tho.
-
That pesky Aim Assist Line still lingers into other MultiDock views when switching from Track View. Tip: Place AAL (cursor) at point zero before switching.
-
Looks to me like the cursor is changing to the right one but the associated function isn't happening. However it's not clear which cc he's working on, if it matters.
-
Pref>>Colors affect TV clips and only a few other tidbits. I changed them all green to see what they were.... then found there's no default color set to revert back too. Could import one from CbB maybe.

I usually move the selected notes up an octave, select the remaining notes by hitting the keys, adjust as needed, then select the 1st set and move them back.
