Synchronization
valid position received via MIDI Clock. Instead, playback
recommences from the current song position. This allows
you to change the song position manually while the se-
quencer is halted, and restart from the new position, with
a MIDI Continue command.
Positioning Bars to Frames: If you want to arrive at a
position in the song at a specific SMPTE time, you have to
alter the tempo of the preceding passage. You don’t want
to do this by trial and error.
Open the Tempo List (page 260).
Create a tempo event at the relevant bar position (page
261).
Set the desired time position for this tempo event in the
SMPTE-Position column. The preceding tempo event is
automatically adjusted to generate the correct bar and
time position for the “auxiliary tempo event”.
You can then delete the “auxiliary tempo event” if you
want to keep the same tempo for the following passage.
Synchronizing Video Files
AVI
MAGIX midi studio generation 6 lets you open videos in
the Video for Windows (*.AVI) format.
You can run these videos in a MAGIX midi studio gener-
ation 6 window synchronized to the song. Wherever you
move the song position, the video follows. You can write
video music, or attach sound effects to individual frames.
To ensure smooth playback, you should try to play the Au-
dio files, and the video material from different hard disks,
if possible.
Opening a Movie: If you select Options > Video Player…,
the file selector opens, and you can select an *.AVI video
from your hard disk.
Setting an Offset: Following the path Options > Video
Settings… a small window opens. There, just above the en-
try SMPTE Start, you can set the video start-point.
Enable Audio of Video: In the window you open via Op-
tions > Video Settings… you can choose whether you want
to hear the audio track of the video.
