Making an audio track out of a midi track

[Tim Cappello]

I've got a kick  on midi on track one. I'd like to record it to audio track 2.

I can't seem to remember how to do it.

Anybody got any help for me.

I know it's a simple thing to do, I've done it many times but it's been so long since I've used Sonar

I can't seem to figure it out.

Assuming the MIDI track is a Simple Instrument Track, (or a SIT), do the following:

· From the Send to of Track 1,  right click and create a Patch point
· On the audio track you want to record to, Select its input as the Patch point you created above.
· Move NOW to before the start of the kicks.
· Arm audio track and record.

Freeze it. Hold Ctrl/shift drag to a new track.

Ah Sonar. So versatile that 3 different users can each have our own way of accomplishing the same task.

When I want to do this I make an Aux track with the audio output of the Synth track routed to it.

Really, all of these solutions work. Choose the one that vibes with ya.

I freeze, then I clone the entire track, fx, contents, clips, envelopes, sends, etc (and verify input set to none) to a new track and rename that track to "rendered" plus whatefver the name was.

Then unfreeze the synth so I can use it for more stuff (sometimes with the same preset, sometimes with a different one, sometimes just with different fx or slightly differnet fx settings, when I'm sure I will be using a particular bit of stuff in a synth track as-is.

So far we have 5 different ways to do it.

I think Bass and Gregy are tied for the fastest ways. My Aux track thing requires a realtime playthrough.

This is the best way and simplest.
