Track view. I can't see it very well on my laptop because it's too small, and I can't see it too well on the bigger monitor because it's not crisp and clear. On Pro Tools, this is where you can adjust the volume. I'm beginning to think that is not the case in SONAR. I'll try to get a screen shot for you.
 
The good news is that I successfully downloaded the free trial of SONAR Platinum and so far it all works without a hitch. I'll put it through the paces another day or two, but if everything goes as smooth as it has I will be back on board with SONAR as my number one, full time DAW. I wish I could remember how many different Cakewalk programs I've had, starting with Guitar Tracks 3.  I've had most of the Cakewalk DAW programs, and I like Platinum the best.

Or open / close Console View (if not open already, use Alt + 2) with shortcut "D", and maximize with Shift + D.

How are y'all posting pictures? I go to the "Attach Images" icon on the right > From Gallery/ Upload > Select from Option Below....but I don't see an option below. Where is it?

You need to host the picture on a picture hosting website such as Photobucket. After uploading the picture to it use the direct link to embed it here in your post.

OK thanks.
Am still loving Platinum. So far, so good. The only glitch was last night when the transport would not flow smoothly either in record or play mode. Instead, it would stop and jump forward, and stop and jump forward. The audio was smooth, but the transport jumped. I shut it down for the night and rebooted this morning and it's working fine again.

That maybe due to your pause button on the computer keyboard. It is a way to cut display updates so more CPU can go to processing. To stop it hit the pause on the keyboard. It wont harm anything if its on. It is disconcerting if you don't know about it.

I had never heard of that before. Was not even aware of that key. But thanks to your post I've looked it all up and read through the info on your link and found some very useful info that I was previously unaware of.
Thanks!
