I’ve been without a computer for a year and have been recording my sequences as Patterns and Songs in the Motif ES sequuencer, and saving them on USB flashsticks. Now I’m expanding my Motif ES sequencer and just bought a DAW so I can use SONAR7 (for expanded sequencing) and KONTAKT3 (for more sounds). I’m using an Edirol FA-66 as a sound card to get audio, which is equivalent to the same module that comes boxed in Sonar’s Power Studio 660. Now I want to record these songs and patterns into SONAR as Midi tracks, and do most of my mixing and mastering inside the computer with software, and then record them to audio in SONAR and off to Track-at-Once burning in Wavelab. I just need to know How to easily transfer those sequences from my USB flashsticks and to record all my previously recorded Motif tracks into SONAR. Even if you could just direct me to where I can read instructions to achieve this task of transferring Motif midi sequences (saved either as Songs or asPatterns) from the Motif into Sonar. The solution should be easy. I just don’t know the process. |

Re: How do I move my Motif ES patterns/songs to SONAR7
You need to save them as SMFs (Standard Midi Files) then import those into Sonar.

Does the transfer assign instruments to track view Thanks for telling me how to move my songs and patterns into the computer. It’s as simple as that? But will the tracks assign themselves and set up in their respective positions in the track view or do I have to make certain mouse clicks to get my Motif sequences properly laid out in Sonar (in the track view) and ready to edit? |

Re: Does the transfer assign instruments to track view
It has been a while since I did this. Saving as SMF from the motif is easy enough.
