Controller/Surface Settings dialog

The Controller/Surface Settings dialog box opens when you click the Add button in Edit > Preferences > MIDI - Control Surfaces. The Controller/Surface Settings dialog box also opens when you select a control surface from the Connected Controllers/Surfaces list in the Controllers/Surfaces dialog box, and then click the Property Page button that’s in the Controllers/Surfaces dialog box.

The Controller/Surface Settings dialog box has the following fields:

Control Surface. Use this field to select the control surface that you want to add to the Connected Controllers/Surfaces list (this option is greyed-out if you open the dialog box with the Property Page button).

Input Port. Use this field to select the MIDI port that the control surface will use to send MIDI control data to SONAR.

Output Port. Use this field to select the MIDI port that the control surface will use to receive MIDI control data from SONAR.
