"""5. "Beatzone"/"Dropscape"? - Frankly, Beatscape, Dropzone and also Cyclone aren't very inspiring and is now pretty much obsolete in my view.
- As I hinted above with the names, create something new that can really make stuff happen with samples and (drum) pads. Something to rival Native Instruments' Battery.
 
6. Wave Export with Markers - Can a brutha have the option to export wave tracks with markers now?
 
7. Inspector Scrolling - Its very nice to scroll up and down in the Inspector, but its annoying when you move away from the Inspector and then try to scroll up/down in the Track View and the Inspector moves instead.
- Have it so that its focus-oriented, so once I've moved my cursor off of the Inspector, its no longer in focus and I can scroll up/down in the Track View without having to click on it first.""""
 
please update this , btw beatzone and dropscape is obsolete in my view tooo

What kind of charge do you guys get out of this?

Curious minds want to know..

Always wanting to poop on things to make themselves feel better, I guess...

I have a suggestion for all you dissatisfied guys.

Why don't you spend some time learning the software you whinge so much about. If it doesn't do what you want and if you really think Sonar was better off with Roland than with Gibson... I can't even finish the sentence.... Where do people come up with these incredible insights? Perhaps with those genius skills you could get work as carnival fortune tellers.

I'm sorry that you are so insecure and your egos so fragile that you regard criticism of your recording software as an attack on your manhood and feel the need to respond as such. As Spencer stated we are paying customers and we will freely speak our minds whether you like it or not.  

Yes, me too.   I don't mind paying for it, but I feel it is my right to criticize and nag and complain to make it work better for what i want to do.    Just for instance, kind of related to the OP, have you tried using "File-New (template normal)?    You tell it a file name, and it insists on making a directory of the same name, the "location" field.   Then you correct that, and it tries to create an "audio path" with the same damn name.   This has been a "feature" since forever (sonar 2?) but it is dumb.    Do I criticize it?  Yes. 

Isn't that Per Project Audio Folders? You can disable that.

Not much to add... other than that selling Cakewalk back to Roland has got to be the worst suggestion I've read in this forum.   
 
Seriously, X2 was the extent of SONAR's reach under Roland.  Comparing that to X3 and now Platinum?   Eek.

Fragile egos, insecure? Now you're just making stuff up..

I mean that in the best possible way.
 
It had to do with how you complain, not WHAT you complain about. 
 
And I would rather try to be polite than to speak freely.

You can use preferences to set the meters to whatever color you like, including orange/green.
 
Or am I missing your point?

A little bit. What I mean is, I would like it if I can uncheck the segmented option for meters and they stay green - not change to grey. The color you see in Preferences is not what you get on the actual meters. It's way off! At least for meters.

I'm with you. Can we get Gibson to sell Cakewalk back to Roland?

You really cannot be serious! That's the company that put us into this mess. Gibson are busy untangling it.

officially both parent companies play(ed) a "hands off" role

I think it's pretty clear Gibson is playing hands off and Roland was so much hands on it strangled them to death, cumulating with the classic dud.. Cakewalk voicemail forever...

Even now Cakewalk is (hopefully) fixing bugs and workflow issues that should have been resolved under Roland's watch..
