i have just registered into this forum i hope to save much headaches.
i wrote a song with a midi track in it
the midi instrument i used i got from using the sonic cell sound module.
the midi controller i use is the edinrol pcr 500.
to convert a midi track to a audio track i know you first create a audio track
then you match the input of the audio track with the soundcard you used to
do the midi track.
unless i am wrong i believe my sound card is the sonic cell,
i am using windows 7.
i am using sonar 8.5 le.
the soundcard of my computer is realtek which i believe is not to be used
in this matter but i could be wrong.
no matter what i try i cannot convert this midi track to an audio track.
can someone please tell me what i am doing wrong.
thanks, mirico
 

I'm not personally familiar with the Sonic Cell, I may be able to help with some general questions. If the synth you're using resides in the Sonic Cell, then you'll have to direct the MIDI tracks output toward the MIDI input of the Sonic Cell and then the Sonic Cell's audio output to the Audio track. Otherwise, you could insert a Soft Synth audio track and direct the MIDI's output to the Synth track.

I think you need to open the Sonic Cell's In/Out Routing screen.

thanks jhughs for helping me out of this  issue
you pointed me in the right direction.
it was a matter of outputting  my midi signal through
to my computer.
thanks again

thank you 57 gregy
you hit the nail on the head.
it was a matter of rerouting the sonic cell
through to my computer.
you were a great help on this issue.

Cool, and welcome to the forum.

Guys,
Thanks so much for these posts, which reminded me how to do this!
These days, have to battle dodgy memory as well as the tech issues - not the best combination, perhaps!
