I'd like have each drum on a separate track in Sonar X3 Producer. I've figured out how to get the audio on separate tracks and can manipulate volume with the faders, but nothing (notes) is showing up visually in the tracks (except the meters). I'm assuming I'm missing something when inserting EZ in the DAW in the insert setup window?
If anyone had a step by step to do this, I'd really appreciate it!
 
Thanks all,

Well there must be a midi track you made. It will be either one track with all the parts or it can be separate track for each part. Then they are all output to Ez Drummer. Ez drummer like most can have either one audio track or multiples. Those can be blank ( no midi data, or you can use simple instrument tracks which is sort of both the audio and Midi in the track.

This what I do. Simply go to instruments, locate ezdrummer, double click and it will open the tracks. Open the mixer in ezdrummer and select multichannel in the output. Then add your midi and you can check to see if each drum is on it's own track by muting each one.

There are a couple of ways to use EZD other than standalone.
 
You can create a MIDI track to drive the EZD engine, setting 'Follow Host' off.  Or, you can create an entire track inside EZD, set 'Follow Host' on and get the audio without a Sonar MIDI track.
 
"Notes" would only be in a MIDI track.  To get audio into your tracks, you have to bounce/record/freeze EZD.  Once the audio is printed to the Sonar audio tracks, you can turn off EZD and work directly with the tracks.

Go to "insert" in the file menu, select "soft synth, vst, EZdrummer". Sonar will create the MIDI track and all the audio output tracks. Open EZdrummer's mixer and select "multichannel". Each kit component will then route to its own track.
