Sonar 2025.02 Overview


Recommended Posts

New in Sonar 2025.02 build 31.02.0.049:

This release adds improvements to Bounce to Tracks, the ability to exclude markers and meter/keys from Arranger operations, includes subfolder count in top folder stats, an updated Light Gray color scheme, as well as usability enhancements and bug fixes for user reported issues.

 

"Arranger Sections" is now a Source Category in Bounce to Track(s)

"Arranger Sections" is now available as a Source Category in the Bounce to Track(s) dialog box. Only sections from the active Arranger track are listed, and the resulting clip names are derived from the section and the category source.

Ability to exclude markers and meter/keys from Arranger operations

In addition to individual tracks and the Tempo track, you can now also exclude markers and meter/key changes from Arranger operations. To prevent the tempo map, meter/key changes, or markers from being affected when editing Arranger sections, right-click or long press the Select Events with Sections button image.png in the Control Bar’s Select module and select the desired options:

  • Arranger Exclude Tempo Track. Prevent the tempo map from being affected when editing Arranger sections.
  • Arranger Exclude Meter/Key Changes. Prevent meter/key changes from being affected when editing Arranger sections.
  • Arranger Exclude Markers. Prevent markers from being affected when editing Arranger sections.

Track Folder info panel shows subfolder count

The track folder info panel shows how many tracks it contains. Because folders can contain multiple levels of subfolders, the total subfolder count is now shown if it is different from the immediate folder count: <immediate subfolders> / <total subfolders>

"Allow Module Resizing" option in Console view/Inspector module Options menus

You can now enable/disable module resizing in the Console view and inspector. When Allow Module Resizing is disabled, the drag handles are removed from the top of the Volume, Sends, and FX Rack modules.

  • To disable module resizing in the Console view, click the Options menu and disable Allow Module Resizing. When disabled, the drag handles are removed from the top of he modules.
  • To disable module resizing in the Track Inspector, click the Display control at the bottom of the Track Inspector, point to Module Options and disable Allow Module Resizing.
