New features in SONAR 8.5

Solo Override

When you enable Solo Override on a track or bus, that track/bus will never be muted as a result of

soloing any other track/bus.

This is a very useful feature when you want to always hear a particular track regardless of which

other tracks are soloed. For example, you may want to always hear the vocal track while you solo

other instrument tracks. This can be accomplished easily by using Exclusive Solo mode (see

“Exclusive Solo mode” on page 1005) and enabling Solo Override on the vocal track.

To enable/disable Solo Override

• Hold down the SHIFT key and click a track’s or bus’ Solo button.

The Solo button is displayed in a cyan color to indicate that Solo Override is enabled. Solo

Override prevents the track or bus from being muted when other tracks or buses are soloed.

Live input bounce

When using the Bounce to Track(s) command to bounce audio in real-time, you can now choose to

include any live audio input in the bounce.

To allow live input during bounce

1. On the Edit menu, click Bounce to Track(s) to open the Bounce to Track(s) dialog.

2. Under Mix Enables, clear the Fast Bounce check box and select the Live Input check box.

See:

“Real-time bounce” on page 666

Note: Mute always takes precedence over Solo. A track or bus can still be muted even if Solo

Override is enabled.
