Sonar X1 Producer cannot export more than 256 separate tracks

There are never disrespectful questions, Wookiee, only questions that are not asked :)

My answer is: To organize and compact a music collection into one file format, for portability.

Imagine that "User" has 600 assorted types of music in "User's Music Folder". Some Wav, Flac, Mp3 320kbps or 96kbps etc...
It is an easy drag-and-drop (or import) into Sonar for all of the songs at one time... if User's computer can handle it.
Now those files can be exported all at once, to be the same file type (Wav, Mp3...) because each song is on a separate track.
...For exporting Mp3, this is beautiful as many songs can be converted at once and that makes Sonar the ultimate Mp3 encoder.
A person can encode their entire collection of finished Sonar Wav projects to Mp3, and dump them to a USB stick to listen in the car on the stereo. Or the Ipod.
Or to email them to family and friends :) that's the best part.

It does not seem like it is "Unlimited Tracks" anymore when something like this happens. If Sonar gives us the ability to make (and use) 600 tracks,
it should not accept that command to export 600 separate tracks when it will always stop exporting at 256.
