Title Editor
Text objects and title templates
MAGIX Music Maker MX Production Suite includes a function which simplifies
insertion and editing of titles. Titles are shown as text in music videos, usually
animated, for example to display the artist and song names.
The basis of these titles is the titles templates settings in the "Templates", and
these may be reached via the "Titles" button. To integrate a title template into
your project, proceed as follows:
Select a file. As usual, a simple click generates a preview in the video window.
This way, you can see how certain title settings will look and the effect they will
have in advance.
Once you’ve found the right title for your purposes, drag & drop it onto a track
in the arranger. It will now be displayed there as a title object. Several title
templates (e.g. YouTube templates) contain additional image objects, these
titles require two tracks.
The title editor (see above) opens automatically. You can open it again later by
double clicking (or by right clicking in the context menu below "Title Editor").
Video capturings
MAGIX Music Maker MX Production Suite can be used with all USB cams,
graphic cards, video cards, or video cards that are compatible with
DirectShow
Video recorders or other devices are connected to the video input of the video
card, TV card or graphic card. If your card also possesses audio ports, these
should be used for capturing and playing back sound so that the image and
sound do not diverge during a lengthy video.
To record from analog sources:
Start MAGIX Music Maker MX Production Suite.
Click on “Record Video” and select “Record video”.
In the Video Record-Dialog, select the correct videotape and audio card driver
in case you have several installed on your PC. A video preview window is
displayed immediately.
Name the capturing appropriately so as to be able to find it later.
You can now select the desired video quality with the fader. The default
setting is the highest quality that your PC system is capable of.
