Saving Your Work
Like most Windows programs, SONAR has a File-Save command and a
File-Save As command to save your work. Normally, you save your
projects in the standard project file format, with a file extension of .
CWP. This
file contains all your MIDI data and all your project settings. Any digital
audio that is part of your project is stored in a separate file, as described in
Audio File Management.
SONAR also lets you save files in several other formats, as described in the
table:
File type... Format... Explanation...
Standard MIDI .mid Used to transfer MIDI-only projects to
other software products that support
Standard MIDI files.
Bundle .cwb A single file that includes all the material
in your project: MIDI data, project
settings, and audio data. This format is
used for projects that contain digital
audio, when you want to back up your
work or transfer a project to a different
computer. See Backing Up Projects with
Digital Audio for more information. Note:
Bundle files do not save video data.
Template .cwt A file that is used as a pattern to create
another. Templates make it easy to
create and configure new projects. See
Layouts, Templates and Key Bindings for
more information.
