recording the output of an audio track to another audio track
Hey People,
I'm sure this has come up before but I can't find an answer on the search.
I want to record the audio output from one audio track to another, The reason is I am using Effectrix to effect the original audio and I want to record the results to a new track.
In Ableton or whatever I can just route one track to another, Is there a way I can do this in X2 without cabling wizardry plugging my audio interface back into itself?
Your superior knowledge is much appreciated.

Is the Effectrix a hardware (outboard) effect, or is it a VST? If it is a software-based effect applied through your effects chain, you should simply "bounce to audio" from the track sub-menu creating a new track that will have the effect permanently applied (unless I misunderstand your question).

Here are two methods 1) route the audio track through the audio interface and back to another track in SONAR 2) use a VST recorder like HGS Wav Recorder and import the result into another track.

I am assuming that you are using Effectrix on a softsynth trk:
Insert a new audio trk.
Select that new trks input as the output of the trk you want to record.
Now freeze the track you want to record.
After, drag the frozen wave to a new audio trk and unfreeze your other trk.
There you have it. The wav that you dragged into the new audio trk stays and can be used as you see fit.

Yup, as Daveny5 & Bauidze said, select the track, and go to "tracks" and click "bounce to tracks"
I just tried the demo and although it says it can be triggered via midi when I add a midi track it doesn't show up
in the midi tracks outputs so I'm not sure how that works.
Interesting effect though.

Thanks for the replies guys,
Probably the easiest way here is to go the VST recorder route because effectrix is pretty much designed to create glitchy results on the fly rather than bounce a whole track with an effect on it such as reverb etc.
Am I alone in thinking that it shouldn't be a big deal to route the audio of one track to another? I know its a standard feature in other programs I've used.
I know the same end result can be achieved here albeit a bit more complicated than it needs to be.

No. You are not alone. Internal routing in Sonar is limited, apparently intentionally to prevent accidental construction of feedback loops. A loopback cord connection or possibly routing through the "mixer" in your audio interface driver if supported are other possibilities. And there are some plugins that will do routing, but none that are free that I am aware of. Virtual Audio Cable should work, but I have no personal experience with it. There is some donationware that reportedly does the same thing--again no personal experience: http://vb-audio.pagesperso-orange.fr/Cable/index.htm
