Playing Files in Batch Mode
SONAR allows you to play several files in sequence automatically using the Play
List view. You can use this feature in live performance applications or just for fun.
SONAR’s Play List view lets you create and work with a series of project, MIDI,
and bundle files. As each file plays, SONAR loads it and displays it in the Track
view and other views like any other project file.
The Play List View
The Play List view lets you create, edit, and save a play list (or set) of up to 999
SONAR projects. Once you’ve created the list, you can play back the entire
sequence automatically. You can even program the list to pause between songs for
a fixed amount of time or to wait for a keystroke before proceeding.
The Play List view looks like this:
