    I haven't installed it yet but did they happen to get in the feature request
    where when you use a per-clip gain envelope or track volume envelope to
    change the volume that the waveform changes also? (As in V-Vocal,
    Soundforge/Sony CD-Architect, etc.).

    Ricky,

    I'm not sure what you're asking - but there is a track volume envelope and a clip gain envelope that
    you can use (although that's been the case for a long time). I'm pretty sure the clip envelope gets
    processed before the track one - but they both work.

    Add Samplitude and Sequoia to the list that supports this.

    The feature I'm talking about (which is a Godsend when comping and many
    other times) is when you change any volume envelope (gain or volume, clip or
    track) the waveform is scaled (up or down accordingly) to show the new
    volume in real-time. If you have a version of Sonar with V-Vocal:

    1) Put V-Vocal on a track or clip.
    2) Zoom in on a section where there's some good, fairly short "blobs" around
    each other and separated by a little space. (It doesn't have to be space but
    this is for clarity). You can zoom by pressing the Z key and using the
    magnifying glass. (Again, there's other ways but..).
    3) Press the S key to go back to the Arrow Tool (Select Tool)
    4) Click on the D button on the lower-left of the V-Vocal screen called
    Dynamics.
    5) Now using your Arrow/Selection tool highlight a "blob".
    6) You'll see a yellow line running through the middle of the window (and
    the blob). This is you volume envelope. As it is it's at zero gain.
    7) Put your pointer over the yellow line until the double-headed arrow
    appears.
    8) At that point click-and-drag up or down to change the volume accordingly.

    You'll see what I mean about the waveform changing in real-time. A lot of
    other apps do this and should be in Sonar too (you listening guys?). It's
    especially helpful if your ears are shot or you just want to get every thing
    in the ballpark without having to
    listen/stop/change/repeat-til-end-of-track. Also lets you get away with MUCH
    less compression for a more natural sound.

    I want it in the track view as even changing nothing but the volume this way
    with V-Vocal changes the sound. Man that was a lot of typing. Hope it was
    clear.

    Thanks for your time guys!

    Ricky




    pull up a clip in it, highlight a "blob" (a section of vocal separated by a
    little space from the "blobs" around it), highlight it (the blob),

    Sorry, I misunderstood you Ricky. As you can tell from my post and the lack of any others - it
    definitely doesn't do what you're looking for (yet) ;-)
