Hi,
track view, 3 clips in sight. If I lasso all 3 of them, 2 get selected one doesn't. Probably not selecting the third because it's overlapping with another. (tried shortening it and it worked ok).
How can I make lasso work like it used to?
 
Thanks in advance!

Try lassoing the end of the overlapped clip. That might work. You may be experiencing the selection bug though. In that case just hold Ctrl and click the unselected track.

my advise to you is to just bounce the track to clips,
select the track(all its content) and right click/ bounce to clips.
 
you will then have no problems.

Thanks Charlie, Beepster, for the workarounds. So, this is a bug that we have to live with?
 
Kind of a shame, isn't it?

Well it may not actually be a bug. I think I remember reading that when lassoing you have to lasso the edge of a clip for it to be selected so if the edge of one of the clips is buried it won't be included. I'm not certain on that but if that is the case it wouldn't be a bug it would just be a design flaw. Now if you had said you were trying to lasso multiple clip and were able to lasso the edges and a clip didn't get included that could be part of the selection bug that has been plaguing X2.
 
Oh and if you have overlapping clips you could just open the Take Lanes. That should ideally make it so any overlapping clips are in their own lane which would leave the edges exposed.

as beepster says, the layers can be opened up and comp'ed. overlay (call it what you want) but its really just pieces that need to be bounced.
see sonar looks at over lay as different layers you've made and by default it wont let you just deleted all that content it thinks you want so instead, it just wont let you select it until you bounce it to clips.
 
remember when a clip is in pieces and layered after editing that clip its like scrambled eggs.
you should get in the habit of cleaning up your tracks once in a while (bouncing to clips)
this way you can clean the audio folder and consolidate your projects.
 
your project may be 900MB but your only realistically using 300mb of content.
why not clean it up ?
disk space, it saves a lot of disk space/project space even.
 
 
not a bug at all, its all up to you how you want to work.
sonar is only doing what it thinks you want it to, not deleting material underneath.
keeping the integrity of the layers beneath.
