Cool Mesh!!
 
I'll check it out. As you say....the cakewalk arps in the midi effects section are ok for some applications. I like an arpeggiator that has  a lot of manipulation capability....didn't even know the others existed. THANKS Mesh! I'll look at those.

Just to be a bit more clear on this, this isn't an Arp that you can manipulate or change settings on, but rather they're actual Presets (more useful/musical) and I believe was developed by B Rock (one of our expert Sonarites).

The per-track arpeggiator is deeply configurable, but became partially crippled when it was ported to Sonar from Project5.  While Sonar can import *.ptn files, it can't save/export them.  The only "current" option is to use an old archived version of Project5 to generate & customize arpeggiator base patterns.
 
The solution is quite simple:  Either a 'save as .ptn' feature in Sonar's File menu, or a 'Load Preset *.mid' option in the arpeggiator.  Then one could use all of the current Sonar features (like the PRV, Step Sequencer, MFX, etc.) as a fully-featured "arpeggiator editor".
 
To be fair, there are a ton of .ptn files shipping with Sonar, and the arp parameter variations are very extensive.  But that's not the same as creating your own base files (wide-open options there).  A prime candidate for Features & Ideas?

Thanks a bunch! Downloaded. Amazing how small these files are. All 500 at around 500kb. I plan to work work that import .mid option you mentioned b rock, and thanks for all of that hard work! ...this is exciting! I can edit these and drive any synth from the front end...how cool is that? Really cool!!!
