open is located and select it.
4. Click the Open button.
5. If you are opening an OMF file, the Unpack OMF dialog appears. Set the
initial tempo and specify the directory where you want to save the file and its
audio. For more information about opening OMF files, see Unpack OMF dialog

Views
SONAR displays your project in windows on the screen that are known as views.
