Chain play of Standard Midi Files

Is Sonar X3 capable of chain playing standard midi files? I am looking for software to send my midi files to the new Roland FA-06 keyboard via USB. The keyboard is not capable of chain playing files and takes too long to load each song. I would like to be able to load several songs on a play list so they will play back to back in an order I arrange. Any help and direction greatly appreciated.

    The Play List view lets you create, edit, and save a play list (or set) of up to 128 SONAR projects. Once you’ve created the list, you can play back the entire sequence automatically. You can even program the list to pause between songs for a fixed amount of time or to wait for a keystroke before proceeding.

    Thanks. Please clarify if you can the 128 projects. I have over 200 SMF's that I have created and would like to transfer them all to the software for playback. I would like to organize set lists of 15-20 songs depending on the venue/show length. As long as I can have my full library available to pick from I can't see using more than 20 songs at a time. I am understanding that it would play back up to 128 songs at a time. Is that correct?

    Right, create and save different playlists with as many midi files as you need for each venue up to the limit of 128 midi files per playlist.
