Output synchronization: Here you must select the driver, which MAGIX Video Pro X5
will use to send MIDI timecode. When synchronizing via SMPTE, please make sure
that the device corresponds to the SMPTE output of your MIDI interface.
Start offset (ms/SMPTE): Here you can enter a time value in milliseconds or in
SMPTE frames to be subtracted from the SMPTE time before the time is used for
synchronization. With an offset of 60:00:00 (1 hour), a tape whose SMPTE code
starts at 1 hour may be synchronized by MAGIX Video Pro X5 as starting at 0.
Specify synchronization
MAGIX Video Pro X5 is capable of being synchronized by external sources or
synchronizing external sources.
Synchronizing MAGIX Video Pro X5 with Samplitude or Sequoia is also possible via a
virtual MIDI cable (e.g. "MIDI Yoke" or Hubi's MIDI Loopback Device"). The
requirement in this case is simply that the virtual MIDI cable has been installed
successfully.
MAGIX Video Pro X5 as master
If MAGIX Video Pro X5 should synchronize external programs or sources, then
proceed as follows:
Open the Synchronization dialog (view page 240).
Un
der "Output synchronization", set the MIDI device that is connected to the
device that MAGIX Video Pro X5 is supposed to sync with.
In case you want to synchronize another program (e.g. Samplitude/Sequoia) via a
virtual MIDI cable with MAGIX Video Pro X5, please make sure that the
corresponding MIDI device is set in both programs. The program to be
synchronized must support MTC and be configured as the "slave".
For example, if you use "MIDI Yoke NT1" under "Output synchronization", then
the device "MIDI Yoke NT 1" must also be set in the MTC input of the program to
be synchronized.
MAGIX Video Pro X5 as slave
MAGIX Video Pro X5 set as the slave causes the program to follow an external
source or another program during playback.
Open the Synchronization dialog (view page 240).
Un
der "Input synchronization", set the MIDI device that is connected to the
device that MAGIX Video Pro X5 is supposed to sync with.
In case you want to synchronize another program (e.g. Samplitude/Sequoia) via a
virtual MIDI cable with MAGIX Video Pro X5, please make sure that the
corresponding MIDI device is set in both programs. The program that is set to be
