Synchronization / Synchronization settings
Master synchronization: Samplitude Music Studio 2013 will slave to
SMPTE/MTC/MC and can act as the master for MIDI clock and MIDI time code.
Sync output is directly linked to audio playback so that no delays occur between
Samplitude Music Studio 2013 and external devices, even with long tracks. This new
synchronization technology was specially developed for connecting Samplitude Music
Studio 2013 with MIDI sequencers such as Cakewalk, Cubase, Logic, Evolution Audio,
MIDI Connections, etc. which can run on the same PC in multitasking mode.
In this case you should use a virtual MIDI router for internally linking the programs
like "Hubis MIDI Loopback" from the Samplitude Music Studio 2013 studio CD-ROM.
Wherever possible, please use MTC -25 frames/sec., since unlike the MIDI clock, no
tempo changes have to be taken into account.
If Samplitude Music Studio 2013 is running as master, please set the FX factor to 1.0.
Slave synchronization with real "chase lock": Samplitude Music Studio 2013
supports real "chase lock" synchronization, i.e. audio playback can be controlled
precisely by a received time code signal (MC or MTC). In this case not only the
starting point of audio playback is controlled externally, but sync also controls
playback speed if "chase lock" is activated. This way Samplitude Music Studio 2013
can follow the sync of analog tape machines or VCRs for quite some time, which
always have a certain slip, without delay.
This is a very powerful feature which many "professional" systems only offer at a high
price!
