Remote Control dialog
Dialog Reference
your MIDI controller can send MIDI volume data from one of its faders
or controls, and you set a fader in SONAR to respond to Controller #7,
the selected fader in SONAR will move up or down as the value of
Controller #7 that your MIDI controller sends rises or falls.
• Wheel—With this button enabled, the selected control moves as the
pitch wheel on your MIDI controller moves.
• RPN—If your MIDI controller can send RPN data, enabling this button
causes the selected control to move as the RPN data that your MIDI
controller changes.
• NRPN—If your MIDI controller can send NRPN data, enabling this
button causes the selected control to move as the NRPN data that your
MIDI controller changes.
• MIDI Channel—Use this field to tell SONAR which MIDI channel the
controller data comes in on.
Learn button
If you don’t know what controller number a slider or knob on your MIDI
controller sends, just click the Learn button and then move the knob in
question. SONAR reads the incoming MIDI data and automatically
configures the Remote Control settings so that the controller you moved
now controls the SONAR control that you are configuring.
Sysx
You can use this option to control SONAR’s Console from an external
controller that sends sysx, such as the Tascam 428, or any device that
sends sysx data. You can set the selected control in SONAR to respond to
sysx data by using these fields:
• Single Byte—Checking this option tells SONAR that the significant data
(the variable, or parameter value) in the incoming sysx message is in
the form of a single byte.
• High byte first—Checking this option tells SONAR that the significant
data in the incoming sysx message is in the form of two bytes, with the
high byte first.
• Low byte first—Checking this option tells SONAR that the significant
data in the incoming sysx message is in the form of two bytes, with the
low byte first.
• Starts with—Fill in the string that your device sends in sysx messages
that precedes the significant data.
• Ends with—Fill in the string that your device sends in sysx messages
