Importing Project5 patterns

Project5 is a legacy Cakewalk’s pattern-based soft synth work station that has its own library (pattern bin) full of MIDI and audio patterns, stored on disk. If you have Project5 MIDI patterns on your hard disk, you can import them directly into Sonar.

To import a Project5 pattern

1.	Move the Now Time to the place where you want to import the pattern.

2.	Highlight the track you want to import the pattern into.

3.	Use the File > Import > MIDI command.

The Import MIDI dialog box appears,

4.	Change the Files of type field to P5 Pattern.

5.	Navigate to a folder where you store Project5 MIDI patterns.

6.	Highlight the file you want to import.

7.	To import the highlighted file, click the Open button.

Sonar imports the pattern to the selected track at the Now Time.

Tip: You can preview Project5 patterns in the Browser.
