Trouble with re-wire from p5v2. Wheres the tracks?

OK so I was able to set my p5 setting to route upto 32 tracks to Sonar inputs. But when I am in SOnar, the track I am selecting as an input doesnt play. The only reason I hear anything is because it is coming across the AUX and Master inputs from p5 into Sonar, but if I try and solo a track I hear nothing. Also there isnt any visible track in sonar to work on. I thought maybe I should record to each P5 track in sonar but there isnt a record button on P5 rewired tracks. What am I doing wrong? I will post on Sonar in case this isnt the place.

thanks for any responses though and for the ones here.

Do you have a Sonar audio track assigned for each Project 5 track you want to bring over? If not you should create them.

When you first establish the rewire connection from Sonar's synth rack, the dialog box that appears gives you the option of creating the first audio track or creating all of them. Tick the box for all if you want your 32 tracks to be pre-assigned.

Alternatively, you can create the audio tracks as you need them and select a P5 output from each created audio track's input. Just click on Sonar's audio track's input dropdown and you should see a Project 5 submenu. From that submenu, you can pick the project 5 output for that track.

Note that the each output of Project 5 multi-output synths are counted as a track, so you must take that into account when selecting a P5 output for the Sonar input.

Conversely, if you are trying to drive P5 midi from Sonar, then you will need a Sonar midi track. Set the output of the track to Project 5 via the dropdown and select which of the 16 channels you wish to transmit your midi on. (Unfortunately, 16 is all you get when driving a rewire device from Sonar.)

Anyway, I hope this gets you over the hump.

Good Luck!!

Do you have to convert your P5 tracks to audio before you see them?

Brandon,

I miss spoke about the track pane I meant the clips pane. sorry I dont see any audio. However, someone in the P5 forum told me some new info which is that you first have to bounce to those tracks. But also that when Sonar re-wires a p5 synth, it puts a new number in brackets to the right of the p5 track so that you know which is the corresponding synth to choose as an input in SOnar. I didnt know any of this. Been trying the manual and i dont see any of those details. I am still trying but now I have to tell P5 to output all my tracks, cause even if I only have 7 tracks that would be 7 + 5 (auxs and mains)= 12 and if SOnar is going to automatically make p5 track 2 actually be Sonar re-wire input 15, I have no way of knowing how many rewire outputs to select so I have to select ALL. But then that chews up PC brain right? well Im still on it, but a little disappointed at the seeming difficulty of getting a simple 4 track into Sonar for mixdown.

we'll see what happens.
thanks for all comments so far!
