What it does…
MfxLookAhead=<ticks> 960*4 Defines how much extra MIDI data is
sent to MFX plug-ins, so that they have
extra room to quantize events into the
future. Lower values mean MFX plug-ins
can work more "just in time." Example:
MfxLookAhead=480.
SendResetsToSoftSynths=<0
or 1>
Boolea
n
0 This variable controls (globally) whether
SONAR sends MIDI controller resets to
DXi’s.
This variable should be set in the
[OPTIONS] section. Legal values are:
0 (default): Resets are not sent to DXi’s
1: SONAR will send MIDI controller
resets to DXi’s. This is what SONAR
already does for hardware synths. For
example:
If you are freezing synth tracks that have
MIDI controller messages, setting this
variable to TRUE (1) will ensure that
synths will have their MIDI controllers
reset before a freeze operation.
GeneralMidiSMFs=<0 or 1> Boolea
n
1 (enable) This line controls whether or not SONAR
creates a General MIDI setup measure
when loading Standard MIDI Files.
LyricTrack=<num> Integer 3 (track 4) This line specifies which track is to
contain lyrics from Type 0 Standard
MIDI files. A zero means track 1, a 1
means track 2, and so on.
SendLocalOff=<0 or 1> Boolea
n
1 (enable) This line determines whether or not
SONAR should send a Local Control
OFF message during startup.
