Opening projects after MIDI configuration has changed
If any assigned MIDI output devices are missing when you load a project, which is likely to happen if
you transfer projects between different computers, SONAR will do the following:
• MIDI tracks. The Missing MIDI Ports dialog appears and lets you remap the missing devices
to available devices.
• Control surfaces. Control surface output ports are assigned to None.
Audio Option configuration settings
SONAR’s audio configuration settings are stored in a file named Aud.ini. SONAR 8 provides a
convenient way to edit, reload and reset the audio configuration settings.
1. On the Options menu, select Audio and then click the Advanced tab.
Note: If you do not remap a missing devices, the track’s Output control will display MISSING:
<name of missing device>. If the missing device becomes available in the future, the track will
automatically be assigned to the correct device.
