I've just put in a ten hour day mixing, and put in about 4-5 hours on Xmas eve, and had no serious problems. Though it should be noted that's all audio-only stuff. I've not used any soft synths in that time, so issues with any of those, or with MIDI in a general sense, I wouldn't have come across.
 
I've had a couple of what I regard as unimportant crashes, where the program doesn't properly quit when I close it, though it does save the project just fine. But that's something that's happened every now and then since forever. It doesn't seem to be on the increase or anything; just noting it for the record.

That clip everyone should be watching. Explains transition from 8.5 to X series it does.
 
Beepster: Master, moving clips is one thing, this is completely different.
Yoda" NO! No different, only in your mind it is. You must unlearn what you have learned.

Stated with great humor, that is - but speak truth, does Yoda.

Well, at the risk of repeating myself - The "Event Inspector" no longer allows editing it's values.
All the other tools can be edited - try clicking in "Punch In/Out" for example.
I don't know in which Platinum version this stopped working in, but it works in X3e.

It does on my system. I posted my findings in your thread if you want to look at it. 

I'd be dead in the water without a functioning Even Inspector, thankfully, my experience matches that of John's - ALL parameters can be freely edited on all 3 computers here under Lexington.

I've been having some very bad crashing problems, which I finally (I believe) narrowed down to a specific set of conditions:
 
(Edit: Link went here, but I'm apparently still at the 'some restrictions apply' stage, so it got removed - it's in the main Sonar forum, 'Lexington crashes during recording in Comping/Sound on Sound' - Basically, if I record anything over existing data, in Comping or Sound on Sound, with the take lane view open, Sonar crashes 100% of the time)
 
I'd definitely be curious if anyone else can reproduce that; I'd think that'd impact a large number of users if it's widespread, but maybe I'm the only weirdo recording with the take lanes on ;)

Same here. Tried to reproduce under a wide variety of conditions, but the Event Inspector works exactly as expected.

John's findings revealed an anomaly. See his first posting in this thread if you have the time.

It's driving me nuts so I am giving up for now. But I'm sure wiser heads than mine can figure out what's going on.

Right. I am not so sure it is working as it should. I do think because there are too many different findings I tend to think there is a problem. 

Hi, guys. Still watching but tracking (in Foxboro... want to get these rough tracks off to the composer before updating).

This would most definitely be a MAJOR problem for me because I always track with lanes open. I'd imagine though that if this were happening to everyone it would have been verified but people may still be pooping out their X-Mas turkeys.
 
Here is the link to your thread so people can test and verify...

If that IS the case I cannot update to Lexington. It does strike me as system specific.

So what exactly, based on your tests, is happening? I too use the Event Inspector to edit large swaths of MIDI notes (usually drum parts) so this would definitely be a problem unless there is a foolproof workaround. I checked out that thread but I'm not quite understanding whether or not, and what module state, foolproof editing can occur in. As in if I have to have the FULL "Large" module in the Control Bar to edit... or what. I have been minimizing a lot of my modules and editing in the popups but if a specific task requires it be done right in the Control Bar with a fully maximized module I can deal with that until it is fixed.
 
 
Cheers, doods. Gonna get back to my tracks but will be back.

I just posted in the other thread; I don't think there's anything wrong with the Event Inspector. It's all about the Select Tool failing to select notes on left-click in the PRV. I couldn't immediately find the thread, but I'm pretty sure this was discovered a while back - not new to Lexington.

Thanks, Brundler.
 
So you mean the ACTUAL Select Tool from the HUD... not the Smart Tool when in "Select" status? I do often use the Select Tool for a lot of stuff (such as selecting multiple MIDI notes) BUT many times I'll actually Lasso notes or select by "Row" (clicking on the corresponding key on the vertical keyboard).
 
Definitely ways around that if that;s what's going on but a broken Select Tool is no good. If it's an older issue it obviously can't be avoided by not installing Lexington though (if I want to get at the Aux Tracks and other goodies that have been intro'd since Foxboro).
 
hrrrmmm... yeah, not a dealbreaker. Almost... but not quite.
 
Thanks for the info.
