To Change a Note’s Enharmonic Spelling
1. Right-click the note to open the Note Properties dialog box.
2. In the Pitch textbox, type a new spelling for the note.
3. Click OK.
SONAR displays the note with the new enharmonic spelling.
You can change enharmonic spellings in other views, such as the Event List view, by similarly typing a
new spelling wherever the note pitch is displayed as a text string.
You can also use the Process-Interpolate command to change enharmonic spellings—for example, to
change multiple occurrences of Eb5 to D#5, or even all Ebs to D#s. See “Process-Interpolate” on page
286 for more information.
MIDI Channels and the Fretboard
You can display notes on the fretboard based on the note event’s MIDI channel. (Do not confuse this
with the Track MIDI channel.) A single track can hold events on many different MIDI channels. See
“Assigning a MIDI Channel (Chn)” on page 128 for more information. Displaying notes using this
method is 100% accurate because each string is represented by an individual MIDI channel. For
example, String 1 = MIDI channel 11, String 2 = MIDI channel 12, etc.
To Display Notes on the Fretboard Using their MIDI Channels
1. Set your MIDI Guitar to transmit on 6 consecutive channels. This is often referred to as “MONO”
mode. Refer to your MIDI Guitar device documentation for more information.
2. Select and Arm a track.
3. If you want the data from all 6 strings to be recorded to a single track, set the Input to OMNI. If
you want each string on a separate track, you need to set up each individual track to record on the
corresponding MIDI channel. The GT-30 Guitar Synthesizer template is designed to do this, so you
may want to open that from the Quick Start Menu or from the File menu. To use the File menu
method, choose
File-Open and choose Cakewalk Template from the Files of type field. Then choose
the Roland GT-30 Guitar Synthesizer template.
4. Open the Staff view.
5. Click the Staff View Layout button .
6. Click Define.
7. In the Method field, click MIDI Channel.
8. In the 1st Channel field, set SONAR to transmit on the same series of MIDI channels that you
chose in step 1. Select 1 for 1-6, 2 for 2-7, etc.
MIDI guitar devices can transmit in MONO using a different series of MIDI channels, but SONAR
needs to be listening to the same channels in order to properly display the MIDI guitar input.
9. Click Close.
10. Click OK.
SONAR displays notes on the Fretboard based on their MIDI channels.
If you are planning to record or input notes from a MIDI guitar synth or MIDI converter, you need to set
this up on the instrument. In the case of the Roland GT-30, for example, you set it to send on MIDI
Channel 11, MONO. This sends out each corresponding string on channels 11-16.
