CAKEWALK SONAR - Muting and Soloing DXI Tracks; Converting Your DXI Tracks to Audio

407
To Remove a DXi from a Project
• If your DXi is patched into the Fx field of an audio track or bus, right-click the
name of the DXi, and choose Delete from the popup menu.
• If your DXi is patched into the Input field of an audio track, go to the Synth
Rack view, click the name of the DXi to select it, and then click the Delete
button. SONAR deletes the DXi strip from the Synth Rack view and sets the
audio inputs and MIDI outputs of all affected tracks to the next lower-
numbered option. SONAR does not delete the affected tracks.
Note: If you’re using a ReWire instrument and not a DXi, always close the
ReWire instrument’s interface before you delete the instrument from SONAR,
or close SONAR.
Muting and Soloing DXi Tracks
SONAR automatically places any audio and MIDI tracks that use DXi’s into a
group that makes muting and soloing the tracks easy:
• To mute or solo a MIDI track that is patched to a DXi audio track, simply
mute or solo the MIDI track—SONAR automatically mutes or solos the
correct audio track. If another MIDI track uses the audio track as an output,
SONAR leaves the audio track unmuted.
• To mute or solo all the MIDI tracks that are patched to a specific DXi, simply
mute or solo the audio track that the MIDI tracks are patched into.—SONAR
automatically mutes or solos all the correct MIDI tracks.
Or
• Click the M or S buttons (mute and solo, respectively) next to the DXi’s name
in the Synth Rack view. This mutes or solos all the tracks associated with this
instance of the DXi.
You can use the mute and solo buttons in the Track view, Synth Rack view, or
Console view.
Converting Your DXi Tracks to Audio
Once your project sounds the way you want it to, it’s extremely easy to convert
your DXi MIDI tracks to either new audio tracks, or Wave, MP3, or other exported
files.
To Convert Your DXi Tracks to New Audio Tracks
1. Mute all tracks that you don’t want to convert.
2. Use the Edit-Bounce to Track(s) command.
The Bounce to Track(s) dialog box appears.
3. In the Source Category field, choose Tracks.
