Sonar Instrument Definitions

These instrument definitions are stored in text files in your SONAR folder, organized largely by manufacturer. For example, all the instrument definitions for Roland gear are stored in the Roland.ins file; all the instrument definitions for Yamaha gear are stored in the Yamaha.ins file. The Misc.ins file contains miscellaneous instrument definitions. MIDI Instrument Definitions for Roland. I found the RS-50 Instrument Definitions and loaded them into.

The problem is that the Kurzweil starts.

Instrument definition files for Cakewalk Sonar Edirol SD-90 and Roland XV-2020 / SRX-06 / SRX-07 To make bank and patch selection easier during MIDI sequencing and subsequent audio capture, it's common to import instrument definition files into DAW software. I have created files for the Edirol SD-90 synth and the Roland XV-2020 synth plus expansion cards, and they are linked here for your use. Just click the link to download and save the file. I was able to import both of these into Sonar 8 with no difficulty. If you use any of these products, I hope you find these files useful.

These files include all the instrumental and many of the drum kits for each synth. A table of contents is provided at the top of each file. The Roland file also has a complete patch listing for the SRX-06 Complete Orchestra and SRX-07 Ultimate Keys expansion cards – nearly 1000 patches. There are a few typos in the patch names, but so far, I haven't found any errors in the banks or patch numbers.

Instrument definitions Hello, I have a Kurzweil PC3 and can't seem to get an instrument definition to work properly in Sonar. The problem is that the Kurzweil starts numbering at 1 and the bank select CC0 value changes at 128, but the bank designation in the keyboard does not increment until patch 129. This is how the PC3 responds to CC0 and PC messages: [Base 1] (bank 1) CC0=0, PC=0 - '0 None' (on the PC3 display) CC0=0, PC=1 - '1 Standard Grand'. CC0=0, PC=127 - '127 Magic Celeste' CC0=1, PC=0 - '128 Drums 'n Bells' [Base 2] (bank 2) CC0=1, PC=1 - '129 Piano Stack' etc. See how the MIDI bank select (CC0) is out by 1. This means that Sonar will group the programs like this: [Base 1] CC0=0, PC=0 - '0 None' CC0=0, PC=1 - '1 Standard Grand'. CC0=0, PC=127 - '127 Magic Celeste' [Base 2] CC0=1, PC=0 - '128 Drums 'n Bells'. Faith Evans Rar 1995 Ford.

ORIGINAL: ducatibruce2 AFAIK there's no way to get Sonar to use 129 patches in a bank. It interprets a change in the BankSelect (CC0) value as a change in bank. I'm pretty sure that the fact that Sonar displays the 129th patch as bank 2 when the PC3 displays it as bank1 wont effect the usability of the patch - other than you having to remember the difference when selecting. Yes, it does work. It just bothers me when things are not nicely ordered. I was hoping I'd missed something, and there was a way to overcome this. I'm struggling with this as well, and I'm not sure I understand the proposed fix above (other than to remember the last patch in every bank is listed in the subsequent bank within Sonar).
