Oh there are many, but I believe the playlist is one of the most overlooked and underappreciated. No other DAW has fully flexible, load as you play, playlist/setlist with multitrack + midi functionality for live performance. I know Ableton live allows you to 'kinda' do it, but things gets very convoluted beyond 2 tracks (much less 24 -32 as I use effortessly in Sonar) and it involves much more preparation with less flexibility. There are a few dedicated performance players around , but they are very basic 2 tracks + midi.
Sonars playlist works flawlessly once you know how to use it and understand its quirks. It is hardly a new feature though having been around in various incarnations since Cakelive for DOS. Every now and then the bakers give it a bit of a polish.
Viva la playlist! It has a small, dedicated but deeply disturbed following:)

1 Skylight interface, 2 pro-channel, 3 audio/midi integration, and all the trimmings (instruments, effects) make it a complete solution.

FWIW my original answer was based on things that were introduced in Platinum rather than things carried over from previous versions.

Pro channel is my biggest thing with SONAR like a lot of others, and ARA, but for Splat, it's mix recall and aux tracks. They are completely part of my work flow now. But I want a MASTER button. You know, push here, and it just, well, MASTERS. I'm flexible though. It could just simply be called a ADD TALENT button

I figured out what he meant after reading a couple posts down. I was hoping it was some cool feature to automatically find offending frequencies and eq them out. Good job on the movie reference.
