New Features in SONAR 7
To Mute/Unmute Note/Controller Events
1. In the Piano Roll view or inline Piano Roll, click the Select button to
enable the Select tool.
2. Hold down the Shift key and do one of the following:
• To mute/unmute only a single Note or Controller event—click
the middle mouse button on the Note/Controller event you want to
mute/unmute and release the mouse button.
• To mute/unmute multiple Note or Controller events—click the
middle mouse button on any Note/Controller event you want to
mute/unmute and drag the mouse over all other events you also
want to mute/unmute, then release the mouse button.
When dragging over multiple events, the events are temporarily drawn
in a different color. All touched events will automatically inherit the
opposite mute state of the first event you click, regardless of their
current mute state. That is, all touched events are set to the opposite
mute state of the first event.
You can choose to abort the mute/unmute operation by pressing Esc
before you release the mouse button.
Note: these instructions apply to the default mouse assignments and will
not apply if you have re-assigned the Event Mute mouse action to different
settings (see Flexible Piano Roll Tools. If your mouse does not have a
middle button, you may want to reassign Event Mute to another button.

New Erase Tool Behavior
SONAR 7 features an improved Erase tool that marks events for deletion
instead of automatically deleting them. When you touch events with the
Erase tool, the events are not actually deleted until you release the mouse
button.
Events that are marked for deletion are temporarily drawn in a different
color. You can choose to abort the delete operation by pressing Esc before
you release the mouse button.
