funny thing about track layers..i havent found any issues except for the lasso..

Me either. One feature I would like to see, would be an option to convert each layer to it's own track. That would be really handy for drums.

Bring on X1b - we are ready....

I'm totally amazed by how many of those actual recognized bugs (as listed by zyler) my installation is effected by. I'm astounded because I usually don't get to see too many things at all. this time around it's like I've got 15 years worth of trouble in one release. And then there's the instability that makes work impossible.

Pretty Long List... No ones complaining keep up the work..  Fix it ALL!!!

I hope/think that refers to the snap settings in the "Snap & Nudge" dialogue which will make sense to me. I even reported it as a bug so it'd be a bit rich for me to start complaining about it. Although I did get a reply saying it was working as intended but it would be mentioned that it could be confusing, so maybe that's what has changed.


I really hope it's not the "snap-to" resolution settings, that won't make any sense at all.

I hope you're right FBB.

Srsly. Snap not only got totally screwed with a major bug in X1 but then Cake also merged the previously independent settings for Track View and PRV. And it seems that despite a huge chunk of the forum collectively gasping in disbelief that it's not something they're willing compromise on. 

I hope they have a new key cluster or some other elegant way to manage it, because it's actually more difficult now in X1 than it is in 8.5 to deal with these things, as the target area for changing this stuff is the small menu button flyout in the control bar module. Blech!

I could be wrong but I vaguely recall that CW has said it will put the snap settings back to the way there were in 8.5. I forget who it was from CW that made that statement but I believe they said they were going to look into it and do something about it. From what I gather from the list being offered to us is mostly bug fixes. In this case I don't think CW views this issue as a bug.  Thus it may not be listed there. None the less, I believe it will be included into the X1b patch.

If I am wrong on this my apologies.

I guess everyone has the fix they can't live without, and mine has been listed; the selecting audio clips in track folders bug. I'm happy to know that it WAS a bug, not just a 'feature', and is being fixed. I haven't run into 99% of the other bugs mentioned, so I guess I'm one of the lucky ones here. I really appreciate that Cakewalk are giving us a list like this.

I agree with John that I don't believe they consider this a bug, but a design decision/change... and they may be planning to change it, but I'm poretty sure they've said that it is fixed, but is not changed for the X1b release... (maybe X1c later this year)...

The GOOD news? Download benstat's X1Helper... It currently gives two snap settings and tho they don't remember your last setting as did the 8.5 snap, it solves a lot of the itch... and one thing important it is currently missing is the ability to control the snapto/by setting, but this will be changed as soon as X1b is out... It's other limitation in this respect is that it doesn't have the measure or dotted values available for it's defaults either... So while not a total reclaim of 8.5's functions, it helps a lot...

PLEASE, simplify the ReWire!

Although it's not on the X1b list as yet the bug report I submitted re stereo ins from Rewire being mono has been acknowledged and 'passed on to development'.

My workaround just now is using a pre-configured template to save setting up the routings each time.  It's a pain to set up in the first place but once you are up and running with your templates it's bearable.

And how did we know that it will be available in March?

From Zyler's post about the update: http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.aspx?m=2222611

Our developers have been hard at work since the release of X1a and we are taking the necessary time to thoroughly test this patch.  SONAR X1b is currently scheduled for release in March.

X1 has corrupted several of my 8.5.3 projects. Thank GOD I keep them on a slow external HDD and I had copied them to my C drive before opening them.

This is actually an EXCELLENT idea!!!  There would have to be some kind of organization or refinement as to how the track layers are organized when rebuilding layers though.  As of now there seems to be no rhyme or reason.

Listen up Cakewalk!!!

There's a workaround for that.   Just select the layer you want on it's own track and drag it to a blank track.  Done.

Or clone the track first, then delete the layer you don't want.

C'mon PX-64 bug, c'mon...

That is very strange. X1 has done nothing bad to any project I have opened in it. I do save all new versions of a project with an X1 tag in the file name to let me know that I modified it with X1. I try to note which Sonar version created the file.
