.....we discuss stuff, even trivial things, we disagree all the time, and don't put each other on trial all the time. It's great, I tell you...

Well said.

Could be old age creeping up

That's probably it. ;)
 
Nah, I just had a look - Sonar did look relatively nice from version 4 on... Sonar 9 would have been killer, I tell you guys. ;)

FWIW, I have Cubase 7.06 and S1 Pro 2.6 and I find X2/3 to be much easier on the eye's.  The foreground/background color scheme makes it easier to discern small objects, and this alone makes it easier to use.  With X3 catching up to S1 Pro in several functions (ARA, for example), I now find myself wishing that SONAR had some chord analysis tools like Cubase 7.  THAT would be an excellent addition, IMO.

Rain is cool. I disagree with him a lot but not because he is boorish. He is one of the few Mac people that actually has a brain. 
I like the look of X3 too. 
 
 

LOL Thanks, John. 
 
Actually, I managed to retrieve tons of old Cakewalk projects from a bunch of old hard drives during our last trip back home. At first, I entertained the idea of slowly re-building them in Logic, but considering how much work that represents, I'm now thinking that maybe it'd be a good idea to grab a little inexpensive PC to run Sonar X and access the projects in their native format. For some reason, I prefer that option to BootCamp. I'd be like an honorary PC user I guess... :)

Yep, I definitely do recall... It wasn't of any import or worth a mention until someone inaccurately mentioned it as 'little'....
 
Now, sarcasm doesn't bite unless it hits a nerve, and it's much more polite than saying 'bullsh*t!'. If something is so utterly unimportant, yet it manages to get past the effort to post it, it is in fact important, claims otherwise not withstanding.
 
Many of us are absolutely sick and tired to death of all the negativism being displayed these last few days. Take it to the KVR cesspool.
 
 

Simple and functional - this is how it all started for me...I still get sweaty palms seeing those columns of numbers. 
 

That a tracker?

Bla, bla, bla. 
 
Short of showing us your moderator badge, you have the option to take a break from this thread and or this forum. You don't get to tell me what I can and cannot say ever - and after what you just said, I do hope that it annoys you to no end.
 
Adieu.

Yessir. One of the best! Trackers are still going strong (albeit with a smaller user base) and I'm thinking about adding one to my toolbox...it's a totally different way of arranging music that makes you think differently about the whole process.
