Creating, playing and saving projects

Understanding and managing project files is central to your workflow in SONAR. In this tutorial,

we are going to cover the basics of getting started with project files and some of the operations

that can be performed with them. Whenever you write or record music in SONAR, you are

writing it to be saved into a project. A project can contain a variety of elements, including:

• Audio tracks

• MIDI tracks

• Instrument tracks

• DirectX and VST audio effects

• Project settings such as Tempo, Key and Meter changes

•Lyrics
