4. In the Channel Format field, choose mono if you want mono tracks, and stereo
if you want stereo tracks.
5. In the Source/Buses field, make sure all 4 outputs are selected. This will
create a separate audio track for each selected output.
6. In the Mix Enables field, make sure all choices are selected.
7. Click OK.
SONAR creates new audio tracks from the outputs you selected. When you’re
through converting, don’t forget to mute your MIDI tracks so you won’t hear them
and the new audio track(s) at the same time.
To Export Your DXi Tracks as Wave, MP3, or Other Type Files
1. Mute all tracks that you don’t want to export; make sure you don’t mute the
audio track that the DXi is patched into, or the MIDI track(s) that you are
using as a source.
2. Use the File-Export-Audio command.
The Export Audio dialog box appears.
3. In the Look in field, choose the location where you want the new, exported file
to be.
4. Type a file name in the File name field.
5. Choose the type of file, the format, and the bit depth of the new file you’re
creating—for MP3 use 16 bits.
6. In the Mix Enables field, make sure all choices are selected.
7. Click OK.
SONAR creates a new audio file of the type you specified. Find the file in the folder
you specified, and double-click it to listen to it.
Automating a DXi’s Controls
Some DXi’s have controls that you can automate by drawing envelopes in either
the Track view or Piano Roll view. Some DXi’s allow you to record the movements
of their faders and other control knobs. Your DXis manufacturer determines which
controls (if any) you can automate.
Note: By default, you can only record MIDI or automation data sent by a DXi into
a MIDI track whose Output field is set to that particular DXi. If you do want to
record DXi input to any MIDI track that is armed, check the Echo DXi Input to All
MIDI Tracks option on the MIDI tab of the Global Options dialog (Options-
Global command).
