Possible Recording Bug?
I'm not sure if this is a bug or a setting but when I hit the record button with Sonar it starts to record the previous track as well? So basically as soon as I hit the record button Sonar starts to duplicate the notes that I recorded for the previous track in the new track I'm trying to record. This is very annoying and I'd like a solution if possible.

Also I've noticed if I mute the track that it wants to record, Sonar won't record it. That's the only way I can get it not to record the previous track.

Check plug-ins for "Enable MIDI Output" selected and/or change the track inputs from Omni. For plug-ins capable of generating MIDI, the option is enabled by default. Turn it off by right-clicking the plug-ins in the synth rack or the VST2/3 drop down in the plug-in header.

There's a bug with midi recording that's been around since 8.5. I use the feature "allow recording without arming track". So if I record a piano, then decide I want to record a spot on my drum track and record that drum part and then move back to piano, many times it will record the drums instead of piano.
The workaround I use to get Sonar out of this confusion is to hit solo on the drum track, then all of a sudden the record button will light up and I can then turn it off, then turn off the solo button. Then everything returns back to normal. I wish this would be fixed.

Yes, unclear what they mean by that at all: a) is focused track recorded then b) is selected track recorded then c) is track with monitor on recorded Either way, uncheck if checked...

Bugs don't get fixed by wishes - we don't have a fairy guardian on staff :) Have you logged this officially? If so what is the bug number?

Check it in Dorchester first. The MIDI engine enhancement and drum map bug fix may have cleared it or changed the behaviour. Then report it.
