SONAR has a unique feature that allows you to view waveform previews in realtime during playback on Instrument tracks and buses. (Not to be confused with waveform preview while recording on audio tracks)
This feature can be useful during mixing or drawing automation. I'm curious how many users take advantage of this feature or what you use it for.  I would appreciate it if you could answer this brief questionnaire. 
 
1. Do you use the waveform preview feature?
A. Wasn't aware of this feature
B. Aware of it but never use it
C. I use this feature often
D. I use it occasionally
 
2. Do you use this on buses or instrument tracks?
A. Bus waveform preview
B. Instrument track waveform preview
 
3. Waveform preview allows you to display historical peak markers on the timeline. Do you use this feature?
A. Wasn't aware of this feature
B. Aware of it but never use it

D. I use it occasionally
 
2. Do you use this on buses or instrument tracks?
A. Bus waveform preview  ** Mostly
B. Instrument track waveform preview  ** Occasionally

D. I use it occasionally
 
4. When do you use this feature in your production?
Usually when checking for peaks or a visual reference for writing automation.
 
Overall it's not something I use too often, but it's VERY handy when I need it.

    When mixing to set stem automation node points - I don't know how we got along without them!
 
 
- Whoever is considering taking this away, and therefore prompted this poll, should look elsewhere to trim whatever is needed to trim.  ;-)
