Well ,Happy new year to fellows Sonar users..
So I went to Mixbus and followed with Ardour,
I cannot say why ,but I am very found of Ardour's graphic interface ,the software is light and quite efficient and it works hands in hands with Mixbus( though if you open an Ardour project with Mixbus I think you should give it another name ...).
I like the idea of open source softwares and I think it is possible to actually work with the couple Ardour Mixbus, though,have to admit that I carry on working with Sonar ,first because it is the software I am used to,and also because I cannot find the loop preview function,which works really well in Sonar, in Ardour.
Just to feed your thoughts.
All the best.
