System exclusive data
SONAR’s System Exclusive (Sysx) librarian provides you with 8192 banks in which to hold MIDI
System Exclusive messages. A bank is a storage area plus some associated parameters such as a
destination output and an optional description. Each bank can hold any number of messages; the
amount of data it can hold is limited only by available memory. The banks are saved in the SONAR
project file. Each bank can also be saved as a .syx file.
