MIDI files
If you plan to publish your songs
If you plan to publish your own songs, we encourage you to follow the General MIDI authoring
guidelines. These guidelines are quite detailed about the exact layout of many types of song data,
and a complete discussion of them can be found on the World Wide Web at
. However,
SONAR can help you to conform with the GM guidelines if you follow these practices:
• Always save your master copy of any work in progress in SONAR project (.cwp) file format. When
you are ready to publish your work, use the
File > Save As
command to create a Standard MIDI
Format 0 file.
• All of the major publishing guidelines recommend that you use Standard MIDI File Format 0
instead of Format 1. Some sequencers cannot read the more complex Format 1 files, particularly
sequencers embedded in some types of hardware such as karaoke players.
• Load the “Turn GM System On” system exclusive bank (
gmsystem.syx
in your Cakewalk directory)
in the Sysx view, and set the bank to Auto Send. This message will not only re-initialize a General
MIDI compatible sound module to a known state, but will also tell SONAR to generate GM setup
measures for your program changes when you save the project in Standard MIDI Format. See
“Variables in the [Options] section”
on page 1412 for information on disabling setup measure.
• For best results, you should always place program changes and other MIDI messages in the
same tracks as the notes they affect. This keeps the data for each track together as a single unit,
and avoids problems that might occur when SONAR cannot easily correlate the program changes
with the note events.
