Hi Guys ...three or four 'wishes' for the list.
 
1- To really help manage large track counts in the console more efficiently, I'd like to just see those that are 'open' in the expanded Track Folders at the time. So If I have, say, The Drums folder open with 12 tracks, that's reflected in the Console, with the folders for Gtrs, Bass, Vox, Keys, etc, all collapsed.  In an opposite way, I could expand/contract 'By Folder' in the Console too.
 
2 - It would be great if any plug-in interface could 'fill the screen', or at least be double the size, by the click of a button, toggle type, particularly on a second Monitor :)
 
3 - I like the Chord Analyzer as it helps my lacking music tech. skills, but the detail is really small. It would be great to have the Chords show in a Control Bar Module, like the 'blue' section of the Transport Module, that syncs with the 'Active' midi track, visible all the time.
 
4- Minor one, re Plug-In Manager. It would be really helpful that after re-scanning for newly installed plug-ins, that they show up with a little 'new' beside them or were in a different colour ...or just a filter to show 'new'.
 
Anything on the above would be gratefully received!
Cheers, Steve

I'd like it to not crash almost every time I clone a track, that would be cool.
 
And I probably aint the first to mention this but, a decent sampler please? It seems to be the only thing lacking in PE and before it is said SFZ, Dimension Pro... Making your patches in a text editor does not qualify as a decent sampler to me in 2014.
 
Other that those two things (and the cloning tracks thing isnt a massive issue since I rarely do it anyway) I am quite happy with x3e pe as it is
 
RE: Windows 8/8.1, I dont understand why people moved from windows 7? Touch maybe? I dont miss not having touch personally and I cannot stand windows 8, they just took windows 7 and horriblified (yes thats a word now lol) it.

If it's crashing when you clone try removing the plugin, or try another plugin.

If you need a sampler and don't want to pay for Kontakt try TX16Wx. No text editor required.

Alex, that kinda defeats the point of cloning! Now I just make a new track and copy stuff over, its easier and relatively risk free.
 
Scook, I have kontakt already, I just think a decent sampler is what is preventing PE from being a complete package - I cant think of much else I would need that it doesn't already have.

The point is the crash is often down to the plugin itself not Sonar.
 
Cheers... :)

I heard different, they want to get Win 8 rebranded quickly... We shall see... Cheers..

Was just confirmed today. They are expecting a late '15 release. The preview will be available tomorrow. They are calling it Windows 10... Weird.

yea with that news I doubt cakewalk is worrying about sonar x4 being windows 10 compatible, but good news its more of a merger than a new code base so win 8 apps and programs will work in 10
