682 Surround Mixing
Surround Effects
What this means during mixing is that you would have to turn the analog
gain to your subwoofer up 10 dB relative to the other 5 speakers, so that
you hear the sound as it will be played back in home theater systems that
use bass management, and you will get your levels set right in the mix.
SONAR’s bass management system allows you to monitor how a surround
project will sound with bass management, so you don’t have to change the
gain to your subwoofer during mixing. SONAR’s bass management system
only applies to monitoring, and is ignored when you export your file.
To Monitor With Bass Management
1. If necessary, open the project you want to use bass management with.
2. Select Options-Project from the SONAR menu.
The Project Options dialog appears.
3. Click the Surround tab.
4. Check the Monitor with Bass Management option.
5. Select an option in the Low Pass Cutoff (Hz) dropdown, and click OK.

SONAR lets you use your existing stereo or mono effects as surround
effects. SONAR does this through the SurroundBridge, which automatically
sets up your existing mono & stereo plug-ins so you can patch them into
surround buses (buses, not tracks).
