Hi all,
I'm using the Sonar Demo 2, and I'm not sure how to apply a certain Bank that I have imported from my Roland V-Drums to a track. As I said, I successfuly received the bank, and it appear's in my project's Sysx screen. However, when I choose the drop-down menu of my MIDI track to choose a bank, I don't have any options, as though there aren't any available. This happens also when I go into the track's bank property window and try to change it from there. Is this just a limitation of the demo, or am I missing something? Thanks!

The banks you are selecting isn't for sysex banks. Sysex information is written to the midi tracks. In order to select the instrument banks you will need to get an instrument definition file or creat one yourself.

There are ins files for the TD 10 V drums here if they are any good to you.
