Creating lightshows sync'd to music track

I did some searching on here and saw the threads relating to syncing winamp timecode to FS, however I believe this feature was removed.

I'm trying to create a lightshow sync'd to MJ's "Thriller" for an upcoming Halloween dance as the big intro, before jumping into the main music and regular lightshow I've created.

How do you create specific sync'd lightshows based on certain trigger points in a song, as opposed to just running sound 2 light and manually tapping through the scenes?

Truley the only way is to add a midi time code to the track that calls the required sequences in FS.
This is THE only way that the music and lights can be sync'ed in perfect harmony.
Its not easy but if it was then everyone would be programming lights!

Good luck
