NOTION Music Forum

As promised, I got around finishing my little attempt to rewire Sonar, Notion 3 plus Vocaloid and I've put a simle tutorial together to share all the little tricks and workaround to make this work.

I am very impressed with how Notion and Sonar can be used together with rewire and the Sonar elite notion bundle gets my thumbs up!

Neat! Thanks sepheritoh! Just in time as well, we'll be posting some ReWire screencasts soon...

Out of curiousity, are all tempo markings in a Score ignored when Notion is ReWired into a host app? Or is it possible to disable the slave-to-tempo status that happens with playback?

Whilst it's great to ReWire Notion in SONAR, I'd really like to keep the tempo markings in Notion. But I understand if this is a limitation of the Rewire protocol.

Yes, tempo is always provided by the Host and there's unfortunately no way around it. You would have to manually enter those tempo changes in Sonar, since Sonar does not run as a ReWire slave.

:/

Hope that helped

Reaper runs rewire as host or slave

For all Reaper users, it seems that for best results you should arm the track that holds the Notion 3 Rewire "effect" for recording. Of course, if you don't actually want to record, use the setting titled "disable (input monitoring only)."

This works in both 32 and 64 bit versions of Reaper since Reaper comes with its own 32/64 bit wrapper. To get the most out of a 64 bit system, you may want to use LoopBe30 to connect MIDI tracks from Notion 3 back into Reaper for VSTi instruments. Of course, that depends on how many instruments you want as well as the size of the instrument patches.

Awesome tip pcartwright, thanks!

I've noticed that Notion is performing well regardless of your track settings in Reaper these days. I'm not sure if it's because of updates to Notion, Repaer, or both, but Notion seems to be much more reliable in Reaper.
