I like take lanes a lot.  A great improvement over layers, for me.
 
I think they need some tweaking, which I hope we will see over the next few updates, but I like where they're going.
 
Sorry you're not having the same experience.

It's really hard to for me to draw a conclusion on them to be honest, because, they seem to work different every time I use them. One time I'll be able to hear all the takes, the next time some will be muted and others won't. Sometimes Mute works, then it doesn't. Sometimes the mute tool thingy works, then another time it won't. 

It leaves you confused as to whether it's a bug or something you are doing wrong. In other words, they are not intuitive enough to where you can use them logically without thinking about it like you could Layers.
And I don't know if it's just my system or what, and if it is ... why? ... but when I try using the pan envelope ... it flat out doesn't work. Whenever I use it, it controls the volume and does nothing with panning.

I guess what I'm saying is, Take Lanes would have been much better received if they would have put more time in to making sure they do what they say.


Compared to Layers, in their current state, on my system, I agree with the OP. They are horrible to work with for me at this point, and I don't use them at all which has really thrown a wrench in to the works for me. Not a show stopper ... but definitely a deterrent.

I just started using them and am loving them but could all of you be more specific- what do you not like, or like about them.
I'll start:
using the mute and isolate tool to comp different takes is amazing!

I like the lanes too. However, there are a few bugs to work out. The comp tool is great but when making lots of small selections across several lanes sometimes a selection will not play back. This is intermittant and the same behavior happens if there are lots of small clips instead of using the solo tool. 

If I ignore it till i'm done and bounce to clips or track it never misses any audio. 

I have not had the mute solo weirdness using lanes for a long time so that one is not bothering me.

I have submitted problem reports and would encourage others to do the same.

Then don't use thenm

If everyone took that attitude toward things that didn't work in Sonar, nobody would use it.

Snap To Grid is buggy, ok ... don't use it.


Selection Is buggy, ok ... don't use it.


Take Lanes are buggy, ok ... don't use it.


Pro Channel is buggy, ok ... don't use it.


Track Meters are buggy, ok ... don't use it.


Inserting Synth is buggy, ok ... don't use them.
