with long tracks. This new synchronization technology was specially
developed for connecting Samplitude 11 Producer 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 11
Producer 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 11 Producer is running as master, please set the FX
factor to 1.0.
Slave synchronization with real "chase lock": Samplitude 11
Producer 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 11 Producer
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!
By entering the "sync velocity", you can influence the speed of the
tempo adjustment. The greater the sync velocity, the faster
Samplitude 11 Producer will follow a tempo change of the sync
master; however, this also means that the pitch fluctuation in the
audio material is greater.
Only use values greater than 100 if Samplitude 11 Producer does not
synchronize precisely in standard cases.
The "chase lock" synchronization uses a real-time resampling routine
requiring a certain CPU power. Anything as fast as a Pentium 90
processor should suffice.
When using the hardware pitching feature, the chase lock
synchronization uses direct access to the sample rate of the sound
card in 1 Hz steps. This achieves particularly precise synchronization
without additional CPU load. However, the sound card has to
