Looking forward to an announcement in a coming update that updates to the main Sonar application are forthcoming.

All of these things are on the periphery. I don't see the updated Startup page as part of the main program.

I'm looking forward to anything related to actually working in the main program.

Even a small fix like adjusting the color / contrast for when FX are on or off in the FX bin would be a real win for the user experience.

I'd like the option of being able to use any brand of tape, without having to re-bias my machine, each time I have to switch.  Also still waiting on the digital grease pencil, but really appreciate being able to use "edge tracks" for stuff now, other than kick drums and bass guitars.  thanks!!! :-)   The new start up won't affect me though, as bands never show up on time....

+1!

Don't forget. That while a key new feature might not float your boat there will be unannounced updates to little thing here and there as well as another bunch of fixes.

Also I can see that the work being put into Drum Replacer will open the door to yet more tech from Cakewalk work in ARA. It seems Cakewalk have really taken to this technology and bringing it to the fore.

I really like the FLAC support in Drum Replacer, all the Session Drummer 3 samples will be available now. I would like to see the start screen help you organise your projects, I.e. projects in recording, projects ready to mix, projects for mastering, something like that.

I have GS2 and it is awesome.  Including the session GS2 is a welcome addition for the membership, as it will do many things. 
 
The membership just gets better and better.
 
Thanks all.  (And Happy Fathers Day too)

Seeing as how today is Father's Day, and last Sunday was my birthday, I'm thinking they should release GS early...
 
Whatcha think guys?

I welcome all the enhancements on Drum Replacer. I really love the DR and worked with it quite a bit.
 
One suggestion: the treshold can now only be set for an entire region. It would be nice if you could set different tresholds within one region (like automation: volume). That should save a lot of time. 
 
 

While I personally don't see myself using much of what is listed, I'm totally happy and ecstatic that others are pleased and excited.  And someday I may get around to them but am overwhelmed by vst acquisitons as of late (gravity/infinity/Omni2+Airwave) and basic Platinum is so wonderful as is...
 
I'm forever grateful to the Bakers and the helpers on this forum; while I don't have the time/need to visit much anymore, I ALWAYS learn something and add a bookmark or two...Songwriting and composing in general is so much more fun these days and I have yet to truly crack the power of the platform.
 
Kiss kiss, happy father's day all
