AS would make an excellent video topic.

After pitchy singers, acoustic guitarists with dicey timing is my most laborious and frequent editing scenario. I intend to keep plugging away at Audio Snap in the hopes that it becomes a time-saving tool in that scenario. As always, the real-world tips and shortcuts are mucho helpful :)

I believe you said you bought "The Big Book of SONAR Tips." In the AudioSnap chapter, check out the tip on page 243, which relates specifically to fixing dicey rhythm guitar parts.
 
An important point about AudioSnap is it's not enough just to have markers at every transient. You also need to disable markers that occur within a single continuous block of sound, like a chord, so you don't stretch half a chord but not the other half.
 
Try the tip a few times, and AS will become second-nature for fixing guitar parts.

Patch Points is a feature i have not used yet, why? i don't know. what are they again?

Great thread!  Bookmarked!  Cool tips on the MIDI effects, will have to try that chord stuff out
 
I saw this question about Patch Points.  I have tried them out a couple of times and they appear to be a great addition to Sonar signal routing.  This an an area that I am still learning about.
 
For those with Craig's tip book, he goes into great detail in Chapter 2.  Here is a teaser:
 
"Synth recording took the concept another step further by allowing real-time recording of synth outputs, but now Patch Points and Aux Tracks introduce a mind-boggling level of flexibility: you can feed tracks (audio or instrument) into other tracks, buses into tracks, sends into tracks, or even (get ready!) tracks, sends, and buses into the same track—and much more. It’s even possible to do something like feed track outputs and bus outputs into an Aux Track, which can then feed into a different track along with other Aux Tracks and a Send. This may sound complicated enough to make your head explode, but it’s all implemented in a smart, intuitive way that not only adds no clutter to the Track or Console View, but even cleans up unused Patch Points if the routing changes"
 
Otherwise, there are a few good examples here:

I have since found this, so I don't use the midi fx so much now, but they are fun for coming up with something less expected.
