In Sonar:
-The ability to change the order of plugins (I understand this is changing in the new version of Cubase)
-The ability see all of the effects you have on all the tracks that will fit in your window in the track view.
-Markers aren't a part of a track.
-Buses are separated from tracks in track view.
-Ctrl+Home takes you to the beginning of your project.
-Track icons (silly, I know)
-64 bit
Things I prefer about Nuendo:
-The ability to name inputs (Sonar 6 allows this, but I don't have it)
-some other things that i can't think of right now...
You can switch the mixer view to show inserts (effects). I don't know what the "track view" in Sonar means, so I'm not sure how different that is.
Markers aren't part of a "track" per se in Nuendo, either. But they are all viewed together horizontal in the project window and can be hid or shown, like a track.
Not sure what Sonar means by "buses", but you can hide or show groups in Nuendo, and they are grouped together, apart from tracks.
You can assign many, many different keyboard shortcuts in Nuendo--there's probably a default keyboard shortcut to take you 00:00:00, but there's definitely a shortcut to take you to your left locator (which is usually at the beginning for rendering purposes).
Like I said, all the progs are so deep now, it's not what they can do, it's knowing how to do the things you're used to doing in another prog. There are probably few true feature differences at this point.
Speaking of workflow, I'm such a mouse guy now, that if you put a control surface in front of me, it would do nothing but slow me down. Talk about workflow preferences! Guys like me who never learned in front of an analog board are completely dependent on and comfortable with a mouse. I actually own an 01x, but I never got used to using it for tweaking/mixing, even when it was sitting right in front of me. Old habits...
