Edirol PCR Controllers
SONAR has a custom controller/surface plug-in that allow an Edirol PCR
controller to control SONAR track, bus, and plug-in parameters (both
effects and synths). This includes support for ACT (Active Controller
Technology), which lets you use your controller to adjust plug-in
parameters on whatever plug-in currently has focus.
Using your Edirol PCR to control SONAR is as easy as:
1. Enabling the Edirol MIDI drivers in SONAR
2. Choosing the correct Edirol In Port in SONAR’s Controller/Surfaces
dialog
3. Loading the correct memory preset in your Edirol PCR.
To Enable Edirol MIDI Input Drivers
1. Use the Options-MIDI Devices command to open the MIDI Devices
dialog.
2. In the Inputs pane on the left side of the dialog, make sure that the MIDI
Input driver or drivers that your controller/surface uses are enabled
(highlighted).
If you have installed the drivers for your PCR from the installation CD
you got with your controller, you can use the following table to choose
the input drivers:
