Working on a project
Every project has a current time, known as the Now time (see: “The Now time and how to use it” on
page 182). As you record or play back a project, the Now time shows your current location in the
project. When you create a project, the Now time is set to the beginning of the project. The current
Now time is saved with your project.
As you work with a project, you can use SONAR’s mute and solo features to choose which tracks
are played, or you can create loops to play a particular section over and over again. You can also
create
markers , which are named time points you add to your project to make it easy to jump to a
particular location.

Screen colors and wallpaper
SONAR lets you customize the colors that are used for virtually all parts of the program using the
Edit > Preferences > Customization - Colors command. This command also lets you change the
background bitmap that is displayed in the SONAR window.
For any SONAR screen element, you can assign a color in two ways:
• Choose one of the colors that is part of your Windows color scheme.
• Assign a custom color.
To assign custom colors
1. Choose Edit > Preferences to display the Preferences dialog box, then click Customization -
Colors .
2. Choose the screen element whose color you want to change from the Screen Element list.
3. Assign a color to the screen element in one of two ways:
• To use a color from the Windows color scheme, choose one of the options in the
Follow
System Color list
• To use a custom color, check Use Specific Color , click the Choose Color button, and select
the color you want
4. To save these changes from session to session, check the Save Changes for Next Session
box.
5. Click OK when you are done.
SONAR uses the colors you have chosen.
