Would be nice if the option existed to playback according to markers and be able to change the order of playback markers to audition composition ideas.

For example: Let's say you have the markers in the following order: Intro, Verse A, Chorus A, Verse B, Chorus B, Solo, Chorus C

It would be nice to be able to change the order playback to: Intro, Chorus C, Verse A, Chorus A, Verse B, Chorus B, Solo, Chorus C
without cutting and pasting

Same thing I thought of when I saw the title.

So, how many people are using Matrix View in this way, i.e. to alter the arrangement of a song? I've never used Matrix View at all whatsoever so I may be wrong, but looking at the screenshots I get the impression that it would involve initially loading up the matrix track by track, not just section by section. Or is there some automatic way of doing this?

Matrix view doesn't allow me to assign a marker's contents to a cell does it?
I am talking about 30+ tracks worth, not one track with loops.

Exactly...
 
On the other hand, non-linear playback could cause all kinds of problems with plugins and notes that don't turn off/on at the transitions. It's a neat idea, but the ability to drag an entire section around would be cooler, IMO.

Its not a new idea. Cubase SX 2 or 3 had it in the form of Play Order Track. I would like this in Sonar.

Mix song down to a rough mix. Then section it off the way you want. Load that into Matrix. Swap to your hearts content.

FWIW...
