Sonar 7 w/Alesis DM10, Change in Track Pan affecting Instrument Pan how to stop?

Hi, I’m using the Alesis DM10 with Sonar 7 and here’s an anomaly I’ve noticed that I can't seem to stop from happening.
 
When I go to adjust the pan on a track in Sonar it is affecting the pan in the DM10 of the last instrument I’ve note chased to.

For instance, when I note chase to the hihat its pan changes within the DM10 when I change it on it’s Sonar track.

So basically, whatever instrument is active for editing within the DM10. its pan changes to whatever the sequencer’s track pan is.

I have disabled remote control in Sonar, I have turned off the DM10 program change, I have tried setting different midi channels to no avail. The DM10’s last note chased instrument’s pan still is affected by Sonar’s track pan.

The only work around I can see is, before I start my sequence, I need to note chase to an instrument who’s pan is set to where the sequencer’s is set. Currently I’ll chase to the snare because I want it centered and being that is where it is set on the sequencer track, because the DM10 doesn’t or isn’t supposed to respond to cc10 (pan).

My question is, I need to be able to setup my pans in the DM10 and not have them being changed by the track pan in Sonar. How do I stop the sequencer’s pan setting from affecting the DM10’s last note chased instrument’s pan?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, thanks for the response.

The odd thing is that the DM10 does not, or isn't supposed to respond to pan cc10. Instead they have set it up to use NRPN 62 LSB 14-114, so this is telling me that Sonar sends NRPN 62 data when adjusting the track pan.
 
Also, whether I'm in edit mode or not, the last active instrument's pan is being affected by Sonar's track pan position. This is true when I change kits on the DM10 and have not selected or note chased to an instrument for editing. Whenever I hit play, the last selected DM10 instrument is jumping to whatever the pan is on the sequencer track.
 
Is there a way to tell Sonar or the DM10 to stop sending/receiving NRPNs? Or is there another solution?

Without the sequence playing, when I move the pan slider on any track who's output port is assigned to the DM10, the pan of the active instrument in the DM10 changes. I do not need to play the sequence. It is the track pan slider sending something that the DM10 is hearing. It does it on an empty track so it isn't recorded data.

I am just guessing that the track pan slider in Sonar sends NRPN data, based on the DM10 published midi implementation stating it does not see cc10 but uses NRPN 62 for its pan.
 
Hmmmm...

Hi, and thank you! By doing the test you mention, I have confirmed that the DM10 does indeed respond to cc10 pan, even though it is undocumented. The affected instrument in the DM10 is the one that is currently active. On startup it is the kick.
 
So now I guess my question is, is there a way to tell Sonar's track pan slider not to send cc10 on sequence start? If not, assuming track pan is centered, then before sequence play, DM10 users will need to make sure that the active internal instrument is one in which you want a centered pan position.
 
 

Hi, I guess I'm missing something, its a basic midi track I recorded using the DM10 Studio drum kit. Like midi tracks do, the track triggers sounds from a source and the source is the DM10. There is no audio associated with it.

Is this "Split it into separate MIDI and audio tracks" something doable in Sonar 7 or is it a feature in later versions?
 
As far as I know, I have only two types of tracks to record and playback from, audio OR midi. A midi track doesn't have an audio track unless its a soft synth, which the DM10 is not. Thanks!
