3. In SONAR, set the Output field of a MIDI track to the name of your ReWire
application, and set the Ch. field to the name of the ReWire device you want to
play with this track.
4. Record some MIDI data in the track and play it. Find the audio track whose
Input field lists the output channel you patched your device into—the
playback meter lights up as you play the MIDI track that plays your device.
Now you can use separate effects for each of your ReWire devices.
Note: Always close your ReWire applications before closing SONAR or a SONAR
project.
Mixing Down ReWire Instruments
To either mix down or bounce ReWire instruments to new audio tracks, use the
same procedures as for DXi’s.
For more information, see “Converting Your DXi Tracks to Audio” on page 407
Automating ReWire Instruments
You can automate audio and MIDI tracks that are patched to ReWire instruments
the same ways you can automate any of SONAR’s audio and MIDI tracks.
For more information, see Chapter 13, Using Automation.
ReWire Troubleshooting Guide
The following lists some common issues when you use ReWire with SONAR:
• SONAR Won’t Close Properly—Always close your ReWire applications
before closing SONAR or a SONAR project.
• Rebirth Won’t Play After I Open Its Property Page—Make sure that the
Loop switch in Rebirth is enabled.
• My ReWire Project Plays at a Different Tempo when Opened from
SONAR—When you open a ReWire project from SONAR, the ReWire project
assumes SONAR’s default tempo, which is 100. Change SONAR’s tempo to
match your ReWire project.
