Mix down question

Post by uncle808us »

When I go to mix down a track even though the song is 16 seconds long the mix down number always has a different number at the end. something odd like 00:15:938 or something so I have to type in the value. why doesn't it read out 00:00:16:000 the song editor shows bars 1-8 at 120 bpm +16 sec. the hours min secs reads 00:00:16 but the mix down never reads 00:00:16.000.
can this be explained?

It happen again this time it wants to mix down from 00:00:00.000 to 00:00:16:567 but the mixed down wave file claims the time is 16 sec. This is perplexing??? Is it a Bug? Hummm.
:) :shock:

The end time is calculated from the track lengths, and it takes into account things like reverb tail lengths (of effects) / release times (of instruments).

I understand but the song section will be 16 seconds long. Correct I need it to fit in a video and it needs to be 16 seconds exactly.
Do I have to type the 16 in to assure that?
Thanks

If you want the file to be 16 seconds you have to set the 'End' value. If you need to do this often you can add a marker at 16 seconds. Then you can pick this marker from a list, so you don't have to type the value.

Thank you for that tip. That's easy enough.
One last question on this subject.
Are markers saved with preferences? Both Mac and IOS?

Markers are saved in the song (.hdr) file.
