Assigning instruments
To clear instrument assignments
1. Go to Edit > Preferences > MIDI - Instruments.
2. Select the MIDI outputs and channels whose assignments you want to remove from the Output/
Channel list.
3. Choose <default> from the Uses Instrument list. A black line connects the two lists.
4. Click OK when you are done.
You don’t really clear instrument assignments—you reassign them to use the default (General MIDI)
instrument definition. After you reassign the output/channel combinations, the default (GM) bank,
patch, controller, and note names are used throughout SONAR on any track that uses one of the
output/channel combinations you reassigned in the Output/Channel list.
