Can you drag more than one groove at a time from EZPlayer Pro into a Sonar track?

I would like to arrange the drums for an entire song inside an EZPlayer Pro arranger track and then drag all the clips into a Sonar track.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out how to select more than one groove at a time in an EZPlayer Pro arranger track.
I have tried both control-clicking and shift-clicking, but neither seems to work.
Is there some other way to do this?

Thanks!
Jonathan

    Once you have all your grooves organized as a final arrangement.... simply record it as one continuous midi file to the next available track in EZ Player Pro. Grab it and drop it into Sonar. Very simple.....


    ENJOY

    Thanks for the reply!  That makes sense.
    One more question please...
    I assume that you have to set the level of the velocity knob on EZPlayer Pro before you drag and drop the groove.  Is that correct?
    What do you do if you want to adjust the velocity later in the mixing process after the groove has been dragged and dropped?

    Thanks,

    There's a few ways to do this..... the quickest is to set velocity in EZ PLayer Pro. You can even change it in real time for some dynamics while recording (from the track you're recording from). You also have the option of velocity control in Sonar.

    Hi mate
     
    I have done exactly as you say and laid down a few drum tracks for my songs - now im doing the guitar tracks and realised that I can't seem to change the volume of the midifile (the recorded ezyplayer file) in sonar.  Do you have a solution for me?
     
    Cheers

    I regularly use a CAL file to scale the velocity that I've bound to Alt+V.. The CAL files and key bindings are well covered in Scott's book..
