Extract Timing Tutorial
The AudioSnap icon and transient markers appear on the clip, and the
AudioSnap palette appears.
5. Let’s zoom in a little so we can see all the markers on the clip.
6. The first marker is already aligned with beat 1 of measure 1. Let’s align
beat 2: click the Go to Next button in the AudioSnap palette three
times to move the Now Time to the fourth transient in the clip:
7. In the AudioSnap palette, make sure that the Align Time Ruler radio
button is selected, then click the Set Measure/Beat At Now button.
The Measure Beat/Meter dialog appears.
8. Since this is measure 1, we don’t have to change the Measure field, so
in the Beat field, click the + button to change the value to 2, and click
OK.
The fourth transient marker lines up with the beat 2 of the measure. Since
this clip has a well-defined tempo, the rest of the beats line up correctly
also. If they didn’t, you could click the Go to Next button 3 more times to
move the Now Time to the next large transient, click the Set Measure/Beat
At Now button, and fill in 3 in the Beat field, and so on, until your beats line
up correctly. If you check the project tempo, it should be approximately 110.
