I'm not seeing the waveform during recording and I know there's an option that lets you toggle it - but I can only find it for Bus or Synth Tracks. Can anyone tell me where it is for normal tracks?
 
Thanks - rev

what version of sonar?
 

8.5.2

This won't help you at all Rev, but in Splat it's in Preferences > Customization > Display > Display Waveform Preview While Recording.
 
I can't begin to remember where, if indeed it was a feature of 8.5.2 (8.5.2 is an odd version - the last update was 8.5.3 which some people still hold in some strange reverence)
 
This is a similar issue to the one you PM'd me about.

>This won't help you at all Rev 
Thanks Jonesey, you were right, it doesn't help at all :)
 
>This is a similar issue to the one you PM'd me about.
No it's not at all. I got that worked out and posted the solution, this is about the clip not showing the wav as I record. Sound is being recorded and the waveform appears once you press Stop so I can live with it. Just thought I'd ask.
 
I've seen this feature toggle itself somehow and come back after a reboot. I've also seen it on one track and not the next, solved by deleting and inserting the track that's misbehaving. 
 
I actually have 8.5.3 but .3 patch doesn't add anything significant. I am one of those who hold 8.5.3 in strange reverence, mostly because I don't need anymore features or a new learning curve. 
 
rev

I'm pretty sure I do remember this as part of the 8 series but I haven't used any of them for a while.
 
Sounds like something screwy is going on the way you describe it, maybe a reinstall might be in order?
 
What about the Help File?

Scott Garrigus to the rescue!
 
There is a dedicated button on the Track Header next to the M & S buttons.
 
 

sonar 8.5.3   Options, global, general, (ck) display waveform while recording.

> Options, global, general, (ck) display waveform while recording.
That's what I was looking for!
 
>There is a dedicated button on the Track Header next to the M & S buttons.
Not on my revered version there isn't. I have Archive, Mute, Solo, Record, Echo, Freeze Track, Auto Read, Auto Write and Layers Off. 

Sonar 8.5.3 is a great version. the last of its kind!
