So wait, the Stereo interleave and phase buttons are never getting put back into track view now?! 

hahaha Ok, just kidding...I've been asking Cakewalk to do this since they moved from 8.5 to the X series.  The fact that they didn't listen to their customers and made really poor decisions like removing those buttons from track view showed that there was only a number of years until the company went belly up.  

I still maintain whoever made the decision to remove the phase and stereo interleave buttons from track view should have been fired from the company immediately.  But that's what happens when a company takes advice from people who don't use a program in a professional manner.  You end up with dumb**** decisions that erode the quality and functionality of the program. 

Anyway - time to move to another daw.  Sonar, we hardly knew ye!

I'm keeping sonar for awhile and going to invest in cooloutboard synths...they work awesome with SONAR and i hate virtual knobs...yay.

I think this really needs a little more thought.

Cakewalk has always listened to it's user base. That was a strong point for them.

Just because a particular item not being addresses is no reason to slam them in this way.

The amount of decisions, available worker time and other similar issues are involved.

Cakewalk was a great company... they went under for other reasons.

I wouldn't be surprised if all of the DAW softwares lose money. High end programming and low prices? How do you do that. Anyone familiar with the cost of medical software?

Chuck is simply laughing at the thought that one such simple issue is the reason for failure.

How about you pick your next DAW and with the way larger number of issues needing addressing, try to get that company to do what you want?

If you find one, let me know and we can have them turn it into an upgraded version of Sonar!

I understand people have complaints but some people simply can not be satisfied no matter what you tell them or what you do. They complain because they like to. it becomes a habit. The squeaky wheel gets the grease so they wait in line for their hand out.
 
My answer to them are.. "Have fun".
 
The sad thing is, this hurts people with legitimate complaints who are trying to better the product and fix bugs.

Yes... and as it happens, I agree I would OD have liked the buttons returned to TV as well as a myriad of other issues.

Only so much can be done within a time frame. Difficult decisions to make but I believe overall, the Bakers addressed this well!

I miss them so much already!
