Dear Friends,

How to record a whole style (drums, base and accomp.) to Cakewalk SOnar and split it on several channels.

Thanks

There's a lot of ways to use an arranger with a DAW setup.
You can record the audio output of the arranger.
You can also record the midi output.

For midi, get the reference manual for the pa 600 and under style play section go to global then find midi out channels.
Actually to connect and use the pa with a DAW it's good to read that entire global section because you want to sync the two up together.

Contrariwise you can export a midi file and import it in your daw and assign the tracks to VSTi's.

It's a lot about workflow and what you want to do.

This is from an old post:


I send midi clock to the PA and sync it up so it can play along with the computer sequencer. Most important thing there is get to know the midi inputs and outputs in the global section. I've been able to do most everything I wanted to do by reading the manual and trying to understand how the machine functions and how it functions in relation to the computer sequencer.
Lot of things I deemed too much hassle after I figured out how to do them though.

Only thing I do now is write a song in Studio One then go to the PA and get it to compose me a bass part. (I send it whole note chords to guide the style) then I record the audio output into S1.
It also a good keyboard (input device) for playing VSTi's etc.

Thanks Tacman7

What I mean by my post is that style in korg arranger has many items Base drums and sometimes toughes of piano or strings all together.

I want to record this style to cakewalk sonar and split he style on channels.
where one channel has the drums and other channel has the base guitar and third channel has the piano etc.

Thanks

The different instruments and style parts come out of the PA on different midi channels.

What's exactly you're trying to do here? Do you want to create a Style in Sonar and then load it into the keyboard, or you want to get it started in the keyboard's sequencer first and then finish editing the parts in your DAW?
