SoundVision
This alternative display of the Soundpool library shows all available sounds
graphically. No matter how large the Soundpool collection is, you can view the
entire library using this 2-dimensional display. This "galaxy" can now be
accessed via the mouse to collect all of the sounds you want.
The large clusters of "stars" are the styles, and these are arranged from inside
to outside with increasing tempo. Eventually they form a center - the styles
furthest out have the highest tempo.
Within a style are the individual instruments (e.g. keys, pads, sequence)
formed in a circle, and the drums are in the middle. Every instrument group has
a certain color assigned to it which is the same in every style. The individual
sounds are points encircled by the individual pitches, if available.
You navigate throughout the Sound Vision view by moving the selection
displayed with the mouse; the mouse wheel enlarges or diminishes the view.
The points (which symbolize the sound loops) can be manipulated exactly as in
the Media Pool list view, i.e. select by double clicking and load by double
clicking or via drag & drop.
File manager settings
MAGIX Music Maker MX Production Suite's file manager works very similarly to
Windows Explorer. It can be used to access and load media files of all kinds,
e.g. videos, bitmaps, MP3 audio files, audio CD tracks, RTF text files for titles.
The Media Pool consists of a file list to the right (the actual “Media Pool”), in
which all loadable media types (and, if required, further subfolders) are listed,
and the navigation area on the left-hand side.
In the file list, all supported multimedia files and subdirectories of the currently
chosen directory are displayed. All entries can be loaded into the arranger
tracks by double clicking or via drag & drop.
