The basic scenario is to use an unused pair of your soundcard&#8217;s outputs to play the Gigastudio&#8217;s sound, and then route (by cabling) this back into an extra input on your soundcard and into Sonar. Here&#8217;s how:<\/p>\n<p>First, it is best to use digital IO if possible, this includes S\/PDIF, Toslink (optical S\/PDIF), or ADAT optical, or a couple others. That way the signal stays digital. If you have no digital IO on your soundcard, you can use analog IO, just as long as you don&#8217;t use the same IO as you plan to use for main inputs and outputs of Sonar.<\/p>\n<p>Set Gigastudio&#8217;s output by going ino Settings &#8211; Hardware\/Routing, and then checkmark the appropriate output, unchecking all others. Please note Giga does not explicitly state which outputs are which, you may have to try several before you find the correct one- typically it starts with the analog IO and then moves to the digital IO in the upper numbers. For instance, if you have an audio card with 8 analog IO, 1 Adat optical, and S\/PDIF, typically Analog will be 1-8, Adat will be 9-16, and S\/PDIF will be 17-18. In this case, only checkmark 17-18. Then click the Apply button at the top.<\/p>\n<p>In Sonar, go to Options-Audio-Drivers and de-select the output you used in Giga, say S\/PDIF 1-2. Do select the input for this channel. Press OK, and restart Sonar as directed.<\/p>\n<p>Now, you can simply play the MIDI to Gigastudio, and remember that now in our configuration the Gigastudio sounds are coming in S\/PDIF 1-2 as if it is an external keyboard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[35301,35242,35277,34936],"storecat":[],"itemids":[],"manufacturers":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the How do I record GigaStudio&#039;s audio output into Sonar  to make a wave file when Sonar is used as my MIDI sequencer? page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/record-gigastudio-audio-output-sonar-make-wave-file-sonar\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"How do I record GigaStudio&#039;s audio output into Sonar to make a wave file when Sonar is used as my MIDI sequencer? - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Giga is unable to directly route audio into another audio application on the same computer, so we must use other methods.
