*Tests Delete Hole*
Nope.
EDIT:
Heh. Cut/paste on large blocks of data quite spectacularly broken now.
EDIT 2:
Confirmed, Sonar can't handle mixed data types in the copy. If I do just midi tracks its fine, if I move tracks with melodyne separately, fine. Audio tracks, fine.
Copy them all together at same time and Sonar goes berzerk.
You are using the new Ripple Editing to delete sections of the project or the Cut | Delete Hole Command in the menu? There are some known issues with Delete Hole that we are hoping to fix in a future update. You may be able to do what you are hoping with the new Ripple Editing commands.
This video goes over how to use it in SONAR. Hope that helps.

The exact method for last night's test was to manually delete the bar on all tracks where I wanted the hole. Then I drag-selected all the bars/clips on all the tracks after the hole. A few interesting things happened next. I dragged the content one bar to the left, into the hole as it were. There was a pause and then it looked like Sonar had done it. However, it seemed to have copied every second bar over the first, I'm not entirely sure. I tried to Undo and although it undid the paste, when I did the second undo to get the blocks of music back on all tracks, Sonar was unable to complete this. I then immediately exited the project without saving so as not to lose the content. I have versioning switched on but I wasn't taking the chance.
So it looked like the process was blowing the copy buffer as well as breaking the Undo function.
The only time I used the menu itself to perform a function was when I tried to Delete Hole
It has occurred to me since that one thing I didn't try was copying/pasting everything except Melodyne clips. For my current project this is about to come up as I rearrange the structure slightly so I'll have more info on that probably once I get another session.
