I've found if you got 64 bit windows, loopMIDI works best. You can configure as many ports as you need in both 32 bit and/or 64 bit apps.

Steve, do you have a virtual midi port program, like Surface Reader; or MDR? I think MDR works with 32 bit, and I know for sure that Surface Reader works good with 64 bit. I don't think there would be a problem running 32 bit Sonar on a 64 bit machine, I just wouldn't know which virtual midi port program would work the best. I'm sure someone else may have a little more knowledge as to which one you would need. Have a great one!.
