Working with Groove Clip audio
Groove clips are .wav files that behave similarly to Sony Media Software’s ACIDized loops (SONAR
also has MIDI Groove clips—see
“MIDI Groove Clips” on page 715). Groove clips contain
information about the audio content, including the original tempo, original reference pitch, number of
beats in the loop, and audio transient information.

How Groove Clips work in SONAR
Groove clips have information saved within them which allow them to adjust to changes in tempo
and pitch. Groove clips can read a project’s tempo and tempo changes, and can adjust their root
note pitch when they read pitch markers. You can add pitch markers in the Track view’s Time Ruler
to transpose the Groove clip. As your project passes over a pitch marker, SONAR transposes your
Groove clips based on the clip’s root note reference pitch. If you insert no pitch markers in your
project, there are no pitch changes in your Groove clips. The default project pitch is C.

Note 1: When working with Groove clips, it is important to know the difference between key and
pitch . Your project’s key signature has no effect on Groove clips. The pitch of your Follow
Project Pitch-enabled Groove clips is dictated by pitch markers in the Time Ruler. If there are no
pitch markers in your project, these Groove clips play at the pitch set in
Project > Set Default
Groove Clip Pitch (the default is C).
Note 2: Groove clips must be at least one beat in length. If you try to loop-enable a clip of a
shorter duration you may experience distortion or artifacts.
