Remote control of the Synth Rack
Once you create some control knobs on the Synth Rack, you can assign knobs or sliders on your
MIDI controller to control the Synth Rack knobs.
See “Using remote control” on page 919 for more information.
Drawing soft synth automation in the Clips pane
Some synths have controls that you can automate by drawing envelopes in the Track view.
To automate a soft synth’s controls in the Clips pane
In the Synth Rack, the Automation Track menu in a particular synth’s control strip displays the track
that this synth’s automation appears in. Click this track’s Edit Filter control and choose the desired
synth parameter on the pop-up menu.
SONAR draws an envelope for the parameter that you chose. You can edit the envelope to make the
parameter behave as you want it to.
