In Zebra, you can rename and save the patch in the preset box in the upper left corner of the GUI. I wish you could rename and save in the main patch window,I wonder if it will ever be fixed?

The same thing happens in Studio One 2 when you use MeldaProduction's MNotePad, and there's no option to turn off all keyboard shortcuts at once.

Re: How do I turn off keyboard shortcuts... 2013/08/28 20:04:56 (permalink)
@konradh,
 
I was able to get the "Do nothing..." function to work for all bindings except those marked as reserved. I did this by going to Edit / Preferences, selecting the key I want, finding "Do Nothing: used to block pre-defined accelerators" in the function list, and then hitting "Bind" and "apply." I totally agree that it's a huge miss that one cannot more easily toggle all function keys on or off. I still cannot get the keyboard pass-thru to work for plugins like Melodyne, meaning I can't start/stop playback with spacebar if the plugin window is maximized (which it needs to be in order to see properly.) I've been using Cakewalk products for almost 20 years now, I keep a very clean system, and I'm STILL spending a big part of each day futzing with crashes and weird app behavior. I wish they would just fix stuff.

Something is not right.  I cannot name and save a patch in Zebra or Aalto.  I can rename in Zebra in the top left box but it does not save from the upper left box.  Using the main save button jumps through the keybindings as the previous poster detailed.  If I add a number in the name, or enter a number in a parameter, Sonar jumps to a new scene.  It would seem that if I am activating a parameter in a VST that Sonar's underlying keybindings should not dominate. I like to have some of the features in Sonar, but these are my two current main synths and these issues are not present in Reaper.

Click the small keyboard icon in the upper area of the plug-in window to give that plug-in the keyboard focus.

The "give all keystrokes" option is broken by the way some third party cross platform plug-ins spawn windows. ATM the only way around this issue is cut-and-paste into the child window entry fields.

I don't think Sonar attempts to sandbox* the VST plugin so I agree with Scook. I can't see any way around this other than knock on the door of the third party developers.
 
* I always wondered why sandboxing isn't isn't possible with VST's, could be useful in improving Sonar's stability. I am assuming the trade off is performance, or the VST spec gets in the way of this, or it is just far too complex to do.

That's what I'm trying to say as well.  Reaper does not have this problem.  The suggested workarounds do not work for serious sound editing for sound design and composing with VST synths.

While there's no global keyboard shortcut disable function, you _can_ assign individual shortcuts to the Do Nothing command found in the Global Bindings list. This even works with the default shortcuts.

I have a few I need to disable but can't seem to find "do nothing" in X3.
Anyone?

Thanks for the quick response as usual scook.
For future reference (to anyone running across this old thread) to add to scook's answer, after selecting nothing you need to hit "bind" at the bottom.
Thanks scook!

Re:How do I turn off keyboard shortcuts... 2014/10/16 17:20:45 (permalink)
Hi,
 
Has anyone had any response by raising this as a bug?
 
It started out being just damned annoying for me when I first discovered it some time ago (I assumed I was doing something wrong) however as I now have more and more plugins that require input I feel completely hamstrung in setting up plugins and programming synths. The notepad cut and paste is just too onerous. 
 
From the few threads I've seen this mentioned in the official response (as above) seems to be it's the third party plugin developers that need to fix the problem but this just doesn't wash. 
 
I was planning on raising a call to add my voice to the argument too. Just a feature  to temporary turn off all bindings (either a toolbar icon or in the preferences) would be acceptable.
 
keyboard shortcuts are useful in their place, so permanently disabling them one by one isn't a good solution either.

Re: How do I turn off keyboard shortcuts... 2014/10/16 17:43:41 (permalink)
I'm having a problem where my keyboard shortcuts are not working at all. My new logitech wireless kybd allows me to use shortcuts in Reason for instance but no shortcuts at all work in Sonar X3e. I even tried to bind "W" to rewind, but even though it looked bound nothing happened.
I have no shortcuts working at all. I even tried to import the shortcuts from X2 but still nothing works.
I find myself wishing X4 would appear on the horizon.

You may be on to something here. If only you could figure out why that's happening, you could make Konradh very happy! Can you still do things like type in track names and all that?

Hi,
Do you have Logitech drivers or just windows default drivers installed? 
Is there an option for character set or anything? It could be due to a windows/logitech character set conversion that is causing it to bypass the shortcuts in sonar.
 
Do you still have X2 installed, if so do the keyboard bindings work with the new keyboard on that?
 
Also does this allow you to type in to plugin windows? If so the workaround might be for us all to get one of these logitech keyboards LOL
