Live Performer
The Live Performer (open via the "Window" menu) helps you create and remix
your arrangement. Many sections in the arrangement can be defined precisely
according to the beat and played by pressing a key on the computer keyboard
or MIDI keyboard. With the Live Pads (view page 166), sound loops or MIDI
takes are positioned on
the arranger tracks during playback. This way, MAGIX
Music Maker MX Production Suite can be transformed into a musical
instrument that can be played directly and intuitively.
Define ranges
To play your arrangement with Live Performer, you must frame individual area
in the arrangement and define them as a range in Live Performer.
Open Live Performer, define a playback range (view page 43) and then press
the corresponding key on
the keyboard (a-k or y) or click on the corresponding
button.
Repeat the process with all desired playback ranges.
The playback ranges will be displayed directly below the timeline.
The ranges can be renamed for better orientation. To do so, please right click
on a range button or the range marker along the timeline and select "Rename".
To delete an assignment, right click and select "Delete".
To reassign buttons already assigned to other ranges, right click on a button
and select "Assign to current range".
