Arranging Music to Video
When you compose music for video, you can use arranger events to ll a specic video section
with music. The following is an example on how you could do that.
PREREQUISITE
You have connected and set up an external sync master device to your computer. You have
created a new, empty project and added a MIDI track.
PROCEDURE
1. Create a MIDI part that starts at position 00:00:00:00 and ends at position 00:01:00:00.
2. Create a MIDI part that starts at position 00:01:00:00 and ends at position 00:02:00:00.
3. Create a MIDI part that starts at position 00:02:00:00 and ends at position 00:03:00:00.
4. On the Transport panel, activate Sync.
5. In the global track controls area of the track list, click Add Other Track or Use Track
Preset .
6. Select Add Arranger Track.
7. Add arranger events at the positions of the MIDI parts.
8. Set up the arranger chain A-A-B-B-C-C.
9. Activate Arranger mode and click Play.
10. On your external sync master device, start external timecode at position 00:00:10:00.
In your project, the position 00:00:10:00 is located, and arranger part A is played back.
11. Start your external sync master device at a position that does not match the project start
time, for example, 00:01:10:00.
In your project, the position 00:01:10:00 is located, and arranger part A is played back.
RESULT
If you position the external sync master device to a position that does not match the project start
time, Cubase automatically jumps to the right position in the arranger track.
NOTE
The reference for the external timecode can be MIDI or any other timecode that can be
interpreted by Cubase.
