You can open Sonar & Vegas at the same time.

Before install an internal MIDI sync like MIDI Yoke, it acts like an MIDI interface.

So in SONAR you choose Yoke in the MIDI preferences and in Vegas as well and put it in slave, viola.

I did it once when Sonar 8.5 was not playing my video any more in the middle of a production,

here´s the link:

Sounds very interesting but I get this when clicking on your 1st link 
404: Page not found 
This error is generated when there was no web page with the name you specified at the web site.
Troubleshooting suggestions:
Ensure the page you are linking to exists in the correct folder.
Check your file name for case sensitivity . Index.htm is not the same as index.htm!
Temporarily disable any rewrite rules by renaming your .htaccess file if it exists.

The 2nd link works but I'm not sure where to go from there.
I'd sure appreciate it if you could elaborate at your convenience sir.

Use Premiere Pro.

I'm a sound designer for movies and have to track lay sound edits. My worksflow is always get your video edit, import it into Sonar then edit the sound to the timeline.

If you want to edit video and sound at the same time work on the video edit in Premiere or something, then to delve further into sound export the locked video edit into Sonar.

I don't think you quite understand the workflow I'm talking about Jim....these are music montages of fast cars etc with no scene being longer than a few seconds and has to hit right on the beat. What I've done in the past is compose the music and import the finished mastered wav into Vegas...I can't imagine even trying to do it the opposite way (although I have with slow moving documentaries or corporate vids that just need music beds here and there).

Hi Randy,


Could you lay out the various video clips in Vegas... then render the whole as a .wmv file?
You could import this single .wmv video file into Sonar... and score each "montage" as part one singular project.  You could then bounce down the audio in Sonar... and import into Vegas.
If audio is slightly off with the hit-points... you could nudge the audio.

This is really low ball editing...but I use the cheapie Pinnacle Studio, that lets you drag a couple of video tracks around and has two audio (stereo) as well. 

I do the "serious" audio in Sonar, but import into Pinnacle and drag as needed.  Usually the first audio track is a reference, if I'm adding additional audio down the line.  And I always import what are "finished mixes" at the time.

I have to think Vegas lets you do the same or more.
