Help with Dimension Sounds

Hi again and thanks in advance.  Im making great progress in the learning curve due to the advice I read hear and the Sonar 8 tutorial by the guy with the thick Scottish accent.

When I record/open midi files in Sonar, I can only play them back through my Korg Triton Extreme.  I would like to assign these midi tracks to the Dimension Sounds but I cant figure it out.  I try to adjust the I/O but I cant seem to change instrument sounds. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Alan

Stuart and his Scottish thing strike again!

As Bit sez.  You have to assign the midi bits your played to DimPro.

Insert DimPro.  It should pop up.  Do as Bit sez to load a program.  Many synths the very first time you open them will have no program loaded.  Once DimPro is intialized, it should remember the program.

I'll assume you are using the Korg to play notes.  For DimPro it will be the controller.  In the track info in the track view you should have a choice of midi controllers.  That has to be the same controller and midi channel as your Korg midi signal is coming in on.  Once you find the correct midi input (you don't say which midi input you are using) the simplest thing to do is choose "all channels" for input.  You can refine that latter.

Sonar should set up all the other input/output for you.  Sometimes that doesn't work.  Make sure you are getting a global midi input (there is an icon that will blink in your toolbar) you can start tracking things down.  Make sure you are getting a signal in the DimPro channel - it has its own meter.  If you get one while you are playing but still don't hear anything, make sure DimPro's audio is assigned to your interface's audio out.
