I could not find a feature request for this feature, so I added the following "Idea" in the Bakery. If you like it, please go over to the Bakery in the Ideas section by clicking on the following link, and vote it up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When a user wants to convert a track containing multiple takes into new tracks for each take, they currently must manually add a sufficient number of tracks to contain each take, name the new tracks appropriately and then manually drag each take to the correct new track.
This process is manually intensive and error-prone.
SONAR should have a single built-in function that would allow the user to automatically "explode" or "unpack" each take lane into a new separate track. This feature is already available in a number of competing DAWs.
Adding this function would add significant value to the existing comping and takes system.
Proposed Workflow:
1. User selects the parent track and uses the existing right click context menu to select the new function.
2. SONAR automatically creates new individual tracks that match the count of the existing take lanes belonging to the parent track.
3. SONAR sets the I/O in the new tracks to match the parent track.
4. SONAR names each new track based on the original parent track name concatenated with a hypen "-" and each take lane name.
Example:
Parent track: Lead Guitar Take lane names: T1, T2, T3
New tracks: Lead Guitar - T1, Lead Guitar - T2, Lead Guitar - T3
5. SONAR copies the existing take lane contents to the appropriate new tracks.
6. SONAR leaves the original parent and take lanes in place, optionally muting the parent track.
