When I create a new track and arm it, it automatically defaults to stereo 1/2 on the delta, and I want the default to be 1... its a burden and it needs fixed. ANyone know?
 
Yah... set up a track or number of tracks with the settings you most often want, and save it as a template file.

When starting a new project, choose that template and all those settings will be there waiting for you.
 
If it comes up 1/2 does that mean the 'default' track is stereo? Seems like that can be set up (-can't remember where right off though...)
 
AlChuck's got it. I made a template that matchs up to my HD24. Just launch the template and do a "save as" and save it as whatever project/song name you want to give it.
 
I think he's adding tracks to an existing project and wants ACKUS to pop up on a certin input.
Besides, I think we should make him tell us what Cakie-tech said about the bounce problem first anyway.:D :D :rolleyes:

Track Rat, you don't even have to launch the template and then do a Save As -- when you open a new project in SONAR, if you saved your TPL file in the templates directory, it just shows up in the list and you pick it from there -- that way there's no risk of recording some data into and changing it in any other way and then saving that over your "clean" template by mistake...
 
The template approach is the ticket. I have a tracking template which brings up all my audio in mono. I also use a mixing template to which I transfer my final audios for mixing.

I even have an SSL board emulation template with dedicated busses for compression in specific EQ ranges.

2 or 3 work templates can take hours off making music tracks expecially if you are porting to outboard gear.
 
Why don't you just be happy to select input before arming the track? It's only three click away? What's the big deal, eh? :D
 
Multiply three clicks time the number of tracks you have to do it times the number of projects you have and...

It's a little like using MS Word and not using styles to format things. Sure, it's only three or four steps to select a line of text, make it bigger and bold and a diffrent font and call it a heading. But if you use Word every day and make every heading that way... well, let's just say if there's a better way, you should use it.
