Automatically adjust waves to pitch: A wave's pitch can be adjusted
automatically using pitchshifting. For this to work however, the used samples
(much like the samples on the MAGIX soundpool CDs) must have the
corresponding key and pitch information. The pitch of the arrangement will
then correspond to the pitch information of the first sample in the arrangement.
Use destructive adjustment for shorter samples: Usually, loaded samples are
adapted to the arrangement in realtime with timestretching. For computers
with lower processing power, this method can be deactivated – the
timestretching effect will then be calculated into a new file which is copied to
the hard disk.
Import CD tracks analog instead of digitally: If this option is activated, you
can record audio CDs via the record button in the transport control. Read
more on this in the "Recording audio CDs" section in the "Audio objects"
chapter. (view page 81)
Automatically open MIDI e
ditor during import of MIDI files: The MIDI Editor will
automatically open after the loading of MIDI files, allowing you to make
changes to channel and instrument assignment and other settings.
Start file preview in Media Pool for...: Here you can deselect automatic file
preview start for Media Pool files and certain file types.
Import formats: You can deselect file formats that you never use, and these
will no longer be imported. Please keep in mind that for some file types (AVI,
WMA) several import modules exist, and MAGIX Music Maker MX Production
Suite uses the fastest one in each case. If you experience problems during the
import of certain files, you can experiment with deactivation of certain import
modules, forcing the program to use the slower, but more compatible import
module.
Audio
Wave output device: This option specifies which sound card or output the
wave audio objects play and which drivers should be used.
Advanced: Use these buttons to access the playback options window which
provides information on the current sound card. ASIO provides the settings
dialog for the ASIO driver, e.g. the MAGIX Low Latency ASIO driver.
Wave/Direct Sound/ASIO: Specifies which of the conventional Windows wave
drivers should be used for the sound card, i.e. the DirectSound system or
ASIO.
