Creating a scene for a song

Post by TalJ »

Hi,
I am trying to create a scene that will change steps to the music.
I have tried timing the change by setting the scene time, but this is very difficult. Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks,
TalJ

Hi,

try it with an older Version of FS like 2.96J. That has a Winamp timecode, which changes a scene every time you set a trigger.
Of course this works only with a music file, but if I have understand your question correcly, that was your intension! ;)

Hi,
Are there any major differences between 2.96 and 3.00 that should make me worry?
Regards,
TalJ

Hi
I have installed freestyler 2.96J, and winamps newest version.
How do I use the timecode from winamp? Do I need to make bookmarks or something?
I have enabled timecode in freestyler.
Thanks,
TalJ

You have to activate the Winamp Timecode in the Drop Down menu in the FS cue list. Then you playback the song and every time you want to set a trigger you click on the Winamp button at the right site of the cue. You also can scroll to the right in the cue list and there you'll find every trigger you set, so you can change the time by hand.

Hi,
Thank you very much!
I seem to have some problems with version 2.96J though..it keeps on crashing and some of the buttons simply don't work, so I am going to stick to 3.00 and I will add the time in the cue editor.
Thank you!
