sonar3 producer redition

[Belvee]

Hello folks
I am playing around with my new version of sonar3 producer edition I have both sonar2 and 3 installed on my system
and are planning to convert all my files to sonar3 but Iam running into some strange happenings in edition3 producer

1) when I solo a track in track view the whole screen is rewritten vertically in a dark color and confusing my work

2) when I switch to console view it is always in the minimise form and I always have to drag each vertical and horizontal margins to see my meters

is there anyway to prevent these form happening



I dint have this problem in sonat2 should I just use sonar2 and forget about using sonar3
have I wasted my cash or what?

Don't know what your first problem is. It is not normal behavior. Sounds like a conflict with you video card, or maybe a corrupt install. You might want to try reinstalling Sonar.

As for #2, after you open Console View, try maximizing it using the maximize button rather than dragging the edges. After that it should reopen in max. view each time.

This is really strange. I would expect this kind of behaviour of a cracked version or something like that.

However, it also could be your video-card. What video-card are you using?

My Video card is an ATI RAGE Soundcard TURTLE BEACH
I dont think it is the ATI because I read the release notes and it said to use the control key to prevent it from happening It worked for muting a track but not for Solo
My copy is legal we dont get much pirated stuff up here

Problem (1) have been solved you were right I had to Maximize the console view then restart sonar thats ok now (THANKS)

I will go though the manual and the notes again and see if I can determine what causes this

It's not a big problem just a nusence.
As for SONAR 4 I dont know I thonk sonar 3 sucks I may stick to sonar2 It works fine I just thaght I wa missing something new in 3

Thanks again folks I thaught you guys were ignoring us CANADIANS

Have you tried updating the drivers for the video-cards?

If you're running Windows XP, have you installed Service Pack 2?

[Belvee]

Yes I have installed service pack 2 and all avalable updates

look folks It's just a nusence I will try to live with it for a while

Thanks for answering
