No, I means the already in SONAR 3 delivered EDIROL Virtual Sound Canvas. You can find it under:

Insert/DXI Synth/EDIROL VSC

You can find the MIDI implementation information in the folder C:\Program files\Cakewalk\Shared Dxi\\Roland\HELP\impl_e.htm

Thanks Falco

I went there but I didn't know how to apply this syx info to my track ... can you advise me?

The easiest way to try this out with the provided Edirol Virtual Sound Canvas is by installing the DXI VSC.

Edit a Sysx bank, via View/Sysx, and enter the data provided as example voor part 1 (voice 1):

F0 41 10 42 12 40 11 40 3A 6D 3E 34 0D 38 6B 3C 6F 40 36 0F 76 F7

Give the bank a name;
High light the bank;
Click the Auto Send Bank button.

Now the Sysx data will be send to the VSC at the start up.

You can send Sysx data any moment during play back. See for more information the help files.

Good luck,

Hello,

I'm looking forward to same topic, how can I do that in new versions?
I'd like to use/hear 1/4 tones.

This is more a question about softsynths than about Sonar. Sonar just sends note on/off for midi notes 0-127. It's up to the synth how to interpret it. Most synths use halftone steps with standard tuning, where concert pitch A is note number 69. Drum synths usually have a different instrument or articulation for each note. But it can be anything else.
 
If you right click on the keyboard area in PRV, you can select alternate labels for the keys, which are defined in Master.ins. So, you can adjust the PRV to alternate tunings of a synth.
 
For synths without 1/4 tone tuning, you may use pitch bend to detune in other than half steps, if the synth supports pitch bend.

Could you help me for doing this on the TeamViewer and Skype?
I have to play a sound with Arabic notes.

A few of the synths included with SONAR have the ability to load Scala files:
http://www.huygens-fokker.org/scala/
http://www.curtismacdonald.com/microtuning-midi/
 
It's probably not necessary to create Scala files - they already cover a lot of global tunings.
 

Here's an idea. This will work if you have a suitable sfz multisample set that you want to use for this purpose.

1. Load the soundset into DimPro's Element 1.
2. Copy and paste the same soundset to Element 2.
3. Set DimPro to Multitimbral mode.
4. For Element 2, increase the tuning to +50 (i.e. up half a semitone).

In PRV, select channel 2 for any individual notes that are require to be half a semitone higher than their position normally indicates. Alternatively, create two separate midi tracks for channels 1 & 2. Set different colours for the two tracks so that normal pitched notes and up-pitched notes can be readily distinguished. View both tracks together in PRV.

Hello,

Which plugin can I use for loading .scl files?
1. I know that it is possible with D 1.2, I have 1.5 but didn't find any button or area to load it.
2. I know that it is possible with Rapture, but my Sonar copy comes with RaptureLE and I didn't find an area.

Could you help me for this issue? Maybe I can pay some bugs If you want.

both rapture and dimension pro read scala micro-tuning files
