Strip with or without midi tracks in console view

[sdupayage]

Hi,

In Sonar you have the ability to hide certain track types (Audio, Midi, Instruments) and thus it changes the visible tracks in the console view how can this be followed with the strips on the surface?

Thanks,

In the Control Surfaces preferences, you can choose between Console View/Track View/All strips. There are some small bugs (on Sonar side), but in general it works.

Hi,

I did change this in the settings but it does not work apparently. When I only want to see audio tracks in console view I picked "console view" inthe preferences but AZ Controller always consider all tracks not just the audio tracks as selected for the console view...

Any idea?

Thanks,
Stéphane

Hi,

That is what I mean by "small bugs"...
The strip should be really "hidden" explicitly in the console, just choosing not to show MIDI tracks has no effect on CS.
Feel free to submit Sonar bug report.

Cheers,
Alexey.

So it's not really usefull for this

If you never need MIDI tracks in console, you can decouple hiding between track and console views and hide all MIDI tracks in console. Not so convenient as one button click in menu, but the result is the same.

Other option is to use "skip midi tracks" in the AZCtrl. WAI display can be incorrect then, but the effect is still ok. Sonar is not informing CS that some track is an Instrument, so that option is not available.
