With all due respect, your points don't address a single thing that was in the video. We chose ten things that are easier to do in X1 than in older versions of SONAR and demonstrated them.
Nothing against cascading right-click menus, but would you really rather have to dive through one of those rather than simply drag and drop a plugin every time you wanted to add an effect to the project? I know I wouldn't.
The respect is mutual, Seth.
I wasn't addressing the points the video made directly, for two reasons:
One, because on the whole, they are easier in X1, although I believe that "easier" is subjective (as you admit in your comment about cascading right-click menus), and that not everyone agrees about what is "easier".
Two, I wanted to add some balance, and bring up some changes in X1 that (in my opinion) make it harder to use, and of course these weren't highlighted in the video (because that wasn't the point of the video, I understand.)
That was the point of my post. I'll acknowledge it was cheeky, but I think the points are still valid. I don't expect them to be incorporated into the next video Cakewalk releases, but on the other hand it will be pleasant if the next SONAR release addresses them. Cakewalk might even get my upgrade $$ again next year.
Best,
Stickman,
Your points are valid, understood, and duly noted. However, as they were about subjects that were not covered in the video, they could be deemed as OT and thus probably belong in a separate thread.
Again, we get what you're saying and I am actually on your side with the desire to reinstate some of the features that we lost with X1. However, that's a whole 'nother topic.
With this video, I think we demonstrated pretty clearly many of the things that are great about X1 which do indeed speed up the workflow vs. older versions of SONAR.
