Request: Bar Offset

[Tony Shaffer]

I'm promoting my ongoing feature request again: I'd love to see Cakewalk incorporate a "bar offset" so that I can set measure one in the DAW to be measure one in my chart. Maybe - if I'm reeeeal lucky, this will show up in the final version of "free" Cakewalk or in the new "paid" version of Sonar. I have to think a bar offset would be helpful to many of us.

Anyway, laughter being the best medicine, I devised a joke to express my pain and anguish over my projects starting at bar 3 and my having to "do the math" every time I try to find the right measure to edit in Cake:

So...some bass, piano, and guitar notes walk into a bar. Bartender looks at them, sez, "hey, if you're just here for a pickup, you're in the wrooong bar...you really need to go someplace else."

Thanks. Try the veal.
