MessageKevin: You would never assign an aux send to the master bus. Sonar will not let you assign an aux send to the bus that the track's output is assigned to for obvious reasons. I remember an early beta of sonar 1 where this was broken and I blew my tweeters. Cakewalk offered to pay me for replacements at the time. Gord ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin L.

What happens if you want to assign the same aux send on multiple tracks to a particular bus? will you only get one shot at it? What if you want to route all your outs to a master bus. So far, I only get to pick Master once. this is a problem.

So, if a track's output is assigned to master, then master won't appear as one of the output list choices. But, if you assign the same track's output to say, one of your soundcards output pairs, then master becomes available as a output list choice, and that soundcard output pair is removed. In other words, its a finite list that does not duplicate the current output assignment. Hard to explain, but you know what I mean. Like having ten rocks in a box, take one out and you only have nine in the box and the tenth in your hand. The one in your hand isn't available again until you put it back in the box. And, the only way to put it back in the box is to take a different rock out of the box. At least that's how it works on my installation. ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin L.

How do I assign an output of an audio track to Master if Master isn't in the list/ K. -----Original Message----- From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ilkster Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 11:14 AM To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Bus assignments in Sonar 5 Where is Master? Well, Wrenfield, He's in the Buss pane ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin L. Gibbs To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 2:05 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Bus assignments in Sonar 5 I'm using some of the old AAA track templates that came with CT 4 in Sonar 5. Interestingly, I was looking at the output assignments in the Normal template and that template says that the output of audio track 1, track 17 is "Master." However, when I click on it, Master is not one of the available choices in the list, only the outs of my MOTU 2408s are available? Where is Master. For that matter, where are Aux 1-4 which are shown in the expanded track. K.
