Please please, guys, don't put this kind of pressure on me.  WHile features are 
being freely discussed in the promotional sense, I'm afraid that discussing 
features from a technical angle, e.g. what works and what doesn't, what is 
accessible and what isn't, may constitute a violation of my nda.  I really 
don't want to do anything that could jeopardize my status as a cakewalk beta 
tester.  It won't be long now anyway.  No, VVocal never ever will be 
accessible.

  Hi Gord!!

  Now that Sonar 6 is being publicly talked about on various websites and 
forums, could you tell us what kind of accessibility we should expect with new 
features such as:

  VC-64 Vintage Channel, Active Controller Technology (ACT): dynamically 
re-maps effect, mix and instrument parameters to hardware controllers, New 
Synth Rack, AudioSnap suite of tools includes: Non-destructive audio quantize, 
Lock multiple tracks into the same groove, Apply seamless tempo changes to 
audio, Convert audio beats to MIDI, Slip-stretch clips to a new time or length, 
High-quality time stretching algorithms including iZotope RadiusT, Percussion 
Mode, Console view redesigned for ergonomic mixing, Transport provides easy 
playback control and vital visual feedback, Automation enhancements: read/write 
controls for tracks and plug-ins, enable automation during playback and record, 
visual automation cues, Analyst spectrum analyzer, Clip editing enhancements 
including lock to time, Fast Zoom enables fast, precise edits without losing 
your place, Mouse wheel support for parameter control and zoom, Import 64-bit 
floating point audio files, Crash Recovery safeguards your projects against 
faulty plug-ins and other sources of crashes, Automatic file versioning: back 
up projects with time/date stamps for easy access to old versions, Customizable 
user interface: put favorite features right at your fingertips, 
User-customizable plug-in menus for easy organization and grouping, 
User-customizable audio hardware port naming, Custom color schemes with 
saturation, hue, and brightness controls.  Are we going to be able to use any 
of this stuff at all?  I guess VVocal is still totally inaccessible, yes?  In 
case you are wondering where I found this:
