Initial Settings
Caution regarding MIDI Devices
When using the SONAR V-STUDIO 100 with a ReWire client such as Project5
Set your MIDI keyboard or other MIDI input device so that it will be used by either SONAR or the ReWire client (not
both). If you attempt to use the MIDI input device simultaneously by both, the following problems will occur.
• Your plug-in synthesizer will be triggered twice; once by the MIDI messages sent to the ReWire client via SONAR, and
also by the MIDI messages that are input directly to the ReWire client.
• The ReWire client will be unable to receive MIDI messages from your MIDI keyboard.
When using a controller or surface that supports bi-directional communication
Place this device so that it is at the bottom of the selected MIDI Devices in the "MIDI Devices" dialog box "Outputs"
field.
In SONAR, when you open an SMF or create a new MIDI track, priority is given to the higher of the devices selected in
the "Outputs" field. In this case, if the MIDI Device used to control the controller/surface is higher in the list,
performance data will be sent to the controller/surface, possibly causing unintended results.
To re-order the devices, select the device that you want to move upward, and click the [Move Checked
Devices to Top] button.
