The only reason you should need to sync the two is if you are trying to play sequences off both at the same time (ie, for live play). If you are simply exporting you can just load the sequence into sonar and set the tempo in sonar to the same as your sequence.

So why can't you simply record the sequence in Soundforge and import into Sonar? Only Pro Tools works like pro tools.

Try this: Record your sequence in Sound Forge. Set the loop points (ie 32 bar loop, 64 bar loop, whatever)

Load it into Sonar and set the tempo to the same as your original sequence. If the original sequence was 89.3 bpm, set sonar to 89.3 bpm.

Line up the start of the loop with the start of the sequencer in sonar and press play. It should now be in time with your other tracks in sonar!
