Routing MIDI Data to ReWire Instruments
Some ReWire applications can create large numbers of instruments. You can send a track’s MIDI
data to any of these instruments by selecting the specific instrument in the MIDI channel menu of
the relevant track.
To Send MIDI Data to a Specific ReWire Instrument
1. In the SONAR MIDI track that contains the recorded MIDI data you want to send, make sure that
the Output menu is set to the correct ReWire device.
2. Then use the Ch menu in the same track to choose the instrument you want to send to. This also
works if you just want to use this track to play your MIDI controller through a particular instrument
in the ReWire application.
Mixing Down ReWire Instruments
To either mix down or bounce ReWire instruments to new audio tracks, use the same procedures as
for synths.
