Working with percussion
Setting up a percussion track
Before you use the percussion capabilities of the Staff view, your percussion track should be set up
correctly. This will allow you to hear the proper sounds when placing notes and during playback, and
will allow you to see the correct percussion instrument names rather than generic note names in the
Piano Roll view, Event List view, and
Percussion Notation
dialog box.
To set up a percussion track
1.
Select the track so it appears in the Track Inspector.
2.
In the Track Inspector, assign the Output and Channel for your percussion instrument. For
example, if the output is assigned to a sound card that supports General MIDI, use channel 10.
3.
Go to
Edit > Preferences > MIDI - Instruments
.
4.
Make sure that the output/channel combination used by your track is assigned to a percussion
instrument definition. For example, channel 10 of a General MIDI output should be assigned to
the
General MIDI Drums
instrument definition.
5.
Click
OK
in both dialog boxes.
SONAR shows the new track output and channel in the Track view, and will use the proper
percussion instrument names in the Piano Roll view, Event List view, and
Percussion Notation
dialog box.
For more information about instrument definitions, see
Setting up a percussion staff or line
The first time you display a percussion track in the Staff view, SONAR picks a default percussion clef
for the track. Tracks with only one note value are assigned the Percussion Line clef. Tracks with
multiple note values are assigned the Percussion Staff clef.
If you want to change a Percussion Staff to a Percussion Line or vice versa, or if you want to change
another type of staff to a percussion staff, you can do so in the
Staff View Layout
dialog box. If you
change a track’s clef to a non-percussion clef, the percussion notation settings will be lost.
The lowest and highest lines on the Percussion clef are E5 and F6, respectively. The Percussion
Line represents E5.
By default, percussion staves are given SONAR’s default note bindings and notehead assignments.
If you want to use your own notation, or if you want to set up the appearance of a percussion line,
you need to use the
Percussion Notation Key
dialog box. In this dialog box, the percussion sounds
and staff positions that are bound have an asterisk near their names. When you select a bound
percussion sound, a line joins the sound to its staff position. Each percussion sound can be bound
only to a single position, but each position may be bound to several sounds. You can use different
notehead types and articulation symbols to visually distinguish the sounds.
