Thanks so much Tim,I'll take another look tomorrow. I love music, I only wished I'd kept up with the changes in the technology.
This is how crazy I got today, I tried to match the sequencer tempo with the Sonar tempo then, I hit play in time with the Sonar metronome.
I'd got all the tracks on Sonar quantised to 16th.I managed to get four bars before they started to drift and after that the Quantised play back on Sonar was strange to say the least, (if The Streets had heard it, they would have probably made a hit out of it).
You Guys are so helpful. Thanks Tim. Steve W www.jerryleelewis.co.uk----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Burgess" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Steve,I think having Sonar as the master is probably your best bet. There's goodstuff in the Help system. Here's a sequence of actions to perform in Sonar's Help to get you to the topics you need: 1 - Open Sonar Help;2 - Press S until you get to "Synchronising Your Gear", then press the rightarrow to expand it;3 - Arrow down and you'll get "synchronisation Overview", so press Enter onit, followed by F6 and you'll be able to read the topic; 4 - Press Alt+C to get back to the table of contents; 5 - Press the down arrow to get to the next topic - there's quite a few inthis section of the Help and they're all worth a read if you're going to geta handle on this and there's quite a few step-by-step examples. Let me know how you get on and if I can help clarify anything you don't understand. Best wishes.

After I'd check that they all worked, I set the sync mode and control midi in on the sequencer and hit record on the sonar, but nothing happened. Maybe it would be easier if Sonar was the Slave? Tim, which would you advise.

You can't get very far if you don't know the answer to this question, but I should be able to help further if you can let me know the answer. Best wishes.

I just want to put some tracks from my hardware sequencer on to Sonar.Mike Christer advice wisely to look in Options menu, as there's info aboutmidi but I couldn't find midi sync or MTC. I'm not able to access the help files as when I press enter on a topic nothing happens.I think the help files need me to have internet access which I haven't gotin my little studio room. I tried a external floppy drive (as that seemed like a good idea from Omar) but unfortunately sonar isn't even recognising that the discs are even formatted.If I could only find the midi Sync, midi time clock page, I may be able toput these sequencer tracks on to the sonar.
