MIDI clock output device: Here you have to select the driver via which
Samplitude 11.5 Producer should send MIDI clocks for synchronization.
BPM: Here you have to enter the tempo you want to send MIDI clocks.
SMPTE/MTC input device: Here you have to select the driver via which
Samplitude 11.5 Producer should receive MIDI timecode for synchronization.
Sync velocity: The greater the sync velocity, the faster Samplitude 11.5
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 11.5 Producer does not synchronize
precisely in standard cases.
MTC output device: Here you have to select the driver via which Samplitude
11.5 Producer should send MIDI timecode for synchronization.
Type: Select the proper frame rate. Use 24 frames for cinematic
synchronization, 25 frames for PAL video, and audio synchronization, 30
frames for NTSC video.
Pre-roll-frames: You can specify, how many frames Samplitude 11.5 Producer
is to ignore before the synchronization starts. Here you can account for the
fact, that certain analog instruments need time to reach the correct speed. In
order to have Samplitude 11.5 Producer link up to the proper time values, a
certain pre-roll frame count can be specified.
SMPTE offset: The SMPTE offset is indicated in milliseconds and in SMPTE
frames. The offset is removed from the incoming SMPTE time code signal to
line up differences between tape material and recorded samples in Samplitude
11.5 Producer. With an offset of “60:00:00” milliseconds (1 hour) a tape that
was previously stripped can be synchronized, if the start point for the
recording/playback starts at 1 hour. Samplitude 11.5 Producer will, however,
start at the correct beginning position.
FX: With this parameter, possible inaccuracies during the positioning of long
samples can be equalized. Requirement is a flawless synchronization at the
sample beginning. Follow the instructions in the chapter “problem solutions”.
