Using The Old Track Manager In Paid Sonar

[Tommy Byrnes]

Hi folks,

I like using the old Track Manager for quickly setting up my screensets. The new one has too much going on to just check/uncheck the boxes I need in that particular view, although it is certainly useful in other areas.

Is there a way to use the old TM in the paid version of Sonar? I can't seem to find a way to do it. Thanks a mil!

Does pressing h on the keyboard open the new track manager?

If the new Track Manager is overwriting the old Track Manager your only option may be to set up presets in the Track Manager to simplify its operation.

I think you could open the project in, say, Cakewalk Home Studio, set up your views as you want them using the older Track Manager, then see if the changes persist when opening the project in Cakewalk Sonar.

There is an option to save & load presets in the new TM. Worth checking out.
