Project > Set Default Groove Clip Pitch

The Project > Set Default Groove Clip Pitch submenu lets you specify the default pitch that

Groove Clips should follow when the clip’s Follow Project Pitch option is enabled.

Groove clips do not follow your project's key. Groove Clips follow the project pitch that is specified in

the Default Groove Clip Pitch dialog box, in addition to any pitch markers in the Time Ruler.

SONAR transposes each Groove Clip that has the Follow Project Pitch option enabled by the

difference between the clip’s Reference Note and the current Project Pitch. Your project’s pitch

changes wherever you insert a pitch marker. If there are no pitch markers in your project, Groove

Clips play at the pitch set in the Set Default Groove Clip Pitch submenu (the default is C).

“Using pitch markers in the Track view” on page 665.

Project > Set Timecode at Now

The Project > Set Timecode at Now command opens the Set Timecode at Now Time dialog box,

which allows you to move the SMPTE time 00:00:00:00 to the current Now time. If you enter a value

in the dialog box, the SMPTE value that you enter is set to the current Now time.

Project > Set Measure/Beat at Now

The Project > Set Measure/Beat at Now command opens the Measure Beat/Meter dialog box,

which allows you to shift the Time Ruler so that the beat of the measure that you choose in the

dialog box appears at the Now Time.

“To sync the project tempo to freely played MIDI” on page 728

“Measure Beat/Meter” on page 1633

Utilities > Consolidate Project Audio

The Utilities > Consolidate Project Audio command copies all the audio used by the current

project into a subfolder of the project’s audio folder. Use this command to create a backup of your

project’s audio.
