YO MCI HOW U DUPLICATE YOUR TRACKS HORIZONTALLY?? BECAUSE IT ONLY SAYS COPY IN SONAR

[MCIHomeStudio]

@CRAZYBOY1984777 hi there, if you want to copy/duplicate a track in the track view, simply hold down 'Ctrl', click and hold the left mouse button on which ever track you want to copy and drag it to the desired location in the track view, then simply release the mouse. Hope this helps

@MCIHomeStudio oh, a box will show up after you have done this, just click 'OK' 'blend old with new'

I used a buss as an example for routing audio from a track. And grouping tracks to a single buss. But in addition, normally, I would have many Buss' that would in-turn be routed to a master, or main buss (master channel)

Hi What is the advantage of using a bus out ,and can you do a tutorial for sending your tracks to ITunes and burn to CD … Thanks’ TC

Hi,

Thanks for answering the first question - I am struggling to set up my MIDI keyboard at the moment. Are there any mixers that support a USB 2.0 input, as that is what my MIDI keyboard's output is and need to find a way for my computer to recognise it through a separate sound card.

Hope that makes sense.

Hi, Great tutorials and well presented, thank you, I have learned so much as I only started with Sonar X1 as it is a 64 bit app. I am a musician and nearly 100% of my work is in Audio. Today I tried to import 15 Tracks from an Ableton Live Project folder and everything went well, I selected all 15 Tracks and Sonar X1 created new Audio tracks and I was ready to start recording more tracks. I just cannot believe at how good Sonar X1 is when it comes to quantizing audio :)

I have a question. I use my Yamaha MW10 as my mixer USB Codec and ASIO4ALL as my device where I plugin my guitar and mic. I have amplitube as the VST plugin. Is there a way to hear the effects in real time before hitting the record button?

And, when I record either my vocal or the guitar, I don't get the same gain/level. What I mean is, it's louder when I record than the playback.
