[goodfeel] Re: midi sounds

Hi Mike
In Sonar you can first record all your midi on one track. After that you can
filter for the pitch range, that you want to go on a second track. After
that cut and paste. You wan't find much better than that, because a software
cannot determine, what your right hand is playing and what your left hand is
playing, unless they split at an exact note.

Hi bill,
 
Sonar would definitely be great for laying down the midi data. The only
thing is that from what I'm finding out, as of this moment we still have to
record each voice one at a time on separate tracks. Obviously we'll be able
to hear the other tracks play back while we're recording, which is fine.
What I was hoping to be able to do was to split notes into individual voices
after recording, especially when you're doing piano or organ pieces, so you
could then import them into their respected voices in Lime. I tried running
a Cal script in Sonar that I thought would do the trick, but it didn't work
the way I was expecting it to. There may be programs out there that'll do
it, but I haven't heard of any mentioned on this list or the ddots-L list.
 
Thanks for the reply though. I'll just keep plugging until I come across
something that works - or until the Lime developers make changes in the
sequencer. Take care.
 
 
 
Mike

Hi, Mike,

 

Sorry I could not reply sooner.  I am traveling a lot these days.  On my way
to CSUN now.

 

Yes, you are correct.  Lime has a sequencer but it currently only records
one part at a time.  If you compose on the fly, as I myself often do, SONAR
is a better environment for that kind of writing.  

 

You can export from SONAR to a MIDI file and then import that MIDI file into
Lime.  However, Lime's MIDI import is not simple enough.  I have asked
Lime's developer to improve but so far, no change.

 

Meanwhile, it would be really helpful if the people from cakewalk would
allow OSNRA to export to MusicXML.  Lime's MusicXML import feature is far
simpler and better than its MIDI import.

 

 

Regards,
Bill
