[Solved] how can restrict loop to one time repeat in sonar X1

Hi Everybody,
When I worked with Cakewalk Express 8, There were an option which let me restrict loop selection to play just one time and it stopped, when reached to End point of loop selection. Could anybody guide me,how can I apply it in sonar X1?
regards,
Ramtin

I don't know Cakewalk Express so I am not familiar with this behavior. Do you want to choose a loop with the loop selection during playback and hear the loop you selected only one time? If that's what you want, I don't think this is possible. If you type Shift+Spacebar, any selection automatically becomes a loop, so although only the selection will play back, it will loop.
 
If this is not what you want, please tell me more about what you want to do.

Sorry, I don't know how to do that. If I find a solution, I'll post it here.

Isn't looping designed to keep looping? Would punch record be better? 

EDIT: Oh I see. 8.53 had an option. Don't know where (if) it is in X1. 

 
Hi, Does Anybody knows the similar option in Sonar X1?

Would you please explain how can I load the Midi multi tracks on Matrix view? 
There is no option in Sonar X1 to set the loop function to on time! If You know, could you please advise me?

If you do that in X3, the selection will start looping automatically - the behavior is different than X1. But, I'm glad you found a solution!!

Dear Jan,
I hrave not X3 But I guess you can set it manually. Please try the following that i have put here from sonar manual,hopefully could help you. 
 
Note: The SPACEBAR is now “globally” bound to the Play/stop button, so that when you have
a plug-in window open, you can still start and stop playback with the SPACEBAR.

To create a key binding using the computer keyboard
1. Go to Edit > Preferences > Customization - Key Bindings.
2. Check Computer in the Type of Keys list.
3. To quickly scroll to the key or key combination you want, click the Locate Key button, and then
press the key or keys you want to use.
4. Highlight the key combination you want to use in the Key list. Keys on the number pad appear as
Num “n.” If a key or combination is already bound to a global command by default, the name of
the key appears in bold text, and the command it is bound to appears at the bottom of the Key
Bindings dialog under Global Key Assignment. Binding a key or combination to a command
and clicking OK overwrites any default binding for that key or combination.
5. In the Bind Context menu, select the context in which you want to use the key binding.
6. Highlight the command you want to assign from the Function list.
7. Click Bind to bind the key combination to the command.
SONAR places an asterisk next to the key(s) that you chose, and draws a line from the
highlighted key(s) to the command that the key(s) will trigger. Any keys that are assigned to
commands have asterisks next to them. Any commands that have keys assigned to them list the
keys in the Computer column and/or the MIDI column.
8. Repeat steps 3 through 7 for all the keys you want to bind.
9. If you want to save these key bindings for other sessions, make sure that the Save Changes for
Next Session check box is checked.
10. Click OK when you are done.
