Tutorials

A. Open Markers view B. Default Groove clip pitch C. Insert marker D. Next marker

E. Previous marker F. Markers list

The current project contains several markers. Let’s try starting playback

from the marker labeled C:

1. If the project is playing, pause playback by clicking the Stop button .

2. In the Current Marker dropdown menu in the Markers toolbar (the larger

dropdown menu, on the left), select the marker labeled C. The Now

time moves to the start of measure 17.

3. Click the Play button .

You can jump to the next or previous marker by pressing Ctrl+Shift+ Page

Down or Ctrl+Shift+Page Up.

For more information on markers, see the online help topic “Creating and

Using Markers.”

Next Step: Restarting the Project Automatically.

Restarting the Project Automatically

Wouldn’t it be easier to practice your solo if you didn't have to restart the

project each time it ended? Rather than manually rewinding and restarting

the project, you can make SONAR automatically jump back to the

beginning and keep playing.

Looping Over the Entire Project

To control looping, use the tools in the Loop/Auto Shuttle toolbar. If you

don’t see this toolbar, choose Views-Toolbars and check Loop/Auto

Shuttle.
