Don't you have to use a midi controller of some kind to use step
recording? In Sonar 5, step recording is definitely more user
friendly than it was in Sonar 2.

Hi,
There's the step recording mode. Haven't played with it for a while, but this method of recording made a lot of folks a lot of money in the 80s (giving away my age...).
Best wishes.

Hi Tim, my name is Ross, I also am wanting to make use of the piano roll in sonar 5. I see what you are saying about jaws not being accessible in the piano roll window, I was wandering is there any other way of creating bassline,synth patterns without using the piano roll. Obviously also without using a keyboard or some instrument, I want to be able to do it myself on the computer. thanks Ross ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Burgess" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, September 24, 2006 8:05 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Problems Sustaining Notes
