not sure, but i dont think logic will open a arr file - you have to export a MIDI (.mid) file from cubase and then import it in logic/sonar/whatever.
an 'arrangement' (.arr) is the main part of every cubase 'song' (.all) - it is the main window. you can have several of these arrangements as part of one song, that can all access the same audio files in the audio pool, the same VSTis and plugins you've got open etc, and that all use the same MIDI settings. so for instance if you wanted to have a full-length version of your tune plus a 'radio edit' you could have them as different arrangements of the same file - different .arr files within one .all file, both loaded up when you load up the song, and you can switch between them at the click of a button. you can copy/paste from one arrangement to another. and that's all i know on the subject. personally i've never used more than one arrangement, but there you go! safe, mutiny ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, March 01, 2002 9:13 AM Subject: [dnb-prod] RE: saving Cubase songs > The all should save the lot.
