Clip Gain
This has probably been mentioned before.
Every modern DAW has clip gain - even Pro Tools, which is known to be very slow in adapting new features, learned that quite a while ago. I really cannot imagine how to mix without that - how can you? :)

To change the gain for all clips in a track, use the gain knob in the Track Inspector. To adjust individual clips, use a clip gain envelop.

Thanks, but I'm afraid that's no solution. What I was referring to was a visual clip gain feature as in other DAWs.

Somehow I missed the reference to "visual" clip gain in this stac

But I can answer the question now, it does not bother me a bit been mixing for years without it.

BTW, I just noticed that I accidently mixed two topics in one thread. Sorry for that, I thought I was hitting the "Create New Post" button.

I'm a very visually oriented guy - I need to see the structure of my mix. An audio waveform that does not reflect the actual audio confuses me.

+1 for a graphical clip gain like it's already featured in many other daw's like Pro Tools or Studio One.

I agree. One can show a clip gain line automation, which is great... but I often just want to change the overall gain of a particular clip and it would be a much nicer solution to simply always have an overall clip gain number that can be changed by selecting it with the mouse or double clicking and entering a value.

Just a tip I'll throw out there, with the Smart Tool use CTRL+Left-Click on the bottom of a clip and drag up or down to change clip gain without changing the Edit Filter.

I also would like this, because I would like to visually see the peaks in a clip, then be able to visually tame those, so that I could hopefully get better response from a compressor. I would like to take this one step further by being able to have a true wave editor within sonar, so that I can do my work in one program and not have to export, import, rinse, repeat.
