multiple songs in one project all with their own tempo signature... Possible?

I want to practice with the band and add some additional sounds...
Can I add multiple songs (with their own time signature)  to one project so I can easily skip thru songs or let the whole setlist run?

    You can use the Play List feature. Choose File > New and choose Play List to create a new one. You can load up your SONAR projects in the list and control playback from there.

    You can, just insert time sig and tempo changes where required but Scott's suggestion is better.

    I use Sonar and its playlist feature as a live playback back up system should my Sonic Cell ever let me down. It works fine for me although I've only ever rehearsed with it. Never needed to use it for real.

    if you're going to have them all in one project i would highly recommend setting up markers as well with song names so that you can jump to the sections via either the markers screen or the markers control bar module, which i have come to appreciate greatly.

    Awesome. I'm gonna try your suggestions. I can controll my laptop now with my phone so that could be a great help.
