Preview tracks too also sync

Postby Activated Soundwave on 01 Aug 2013, 09:24

Like the title suggest, monitoring/headphone's Preview track too also sync with master, this would help no end, as I like to do a lot of pre mixes in my headphone's to see what works, it would be a lot faster to have the Preview tracks too also sync, but I guess it would have to have its own sync button, unless you can find away for it to work in conjunction with preview seek.

I hope you can see what advantage this has, like I do, time is of the essence, and to always too be a step ahead of what you are about to mix, is always good in my book, knowing what will work and what will not, in split seconds etc. is my ideal or just being able to go with a mix in your headphone's before hand is quite nifty thing.

That's a good idea.
Though this ain't so simple for unanalyzed tracks.
- Should we launch analysis when previewing?
- Should we just not sync them?

At least automatic preview sync is a terrible idea when you're cueing up songs that are totally different tempos and genres. :twisted:

Just not sync them if they are not analysed, as we don't want to waste valuable time, keep things simple.

As far as other genre go the only issue is if you go from standard BPM to drum bass etc, but I don't see the issue that's just common sense really .maybe to compensate, just have a MIDI controllable button on/off, so you can chose if to have the preview player sync active or not.

And as you have preview scroll just use the same method/system as you have for the sample player and decks. the sync is the sync does what it does. if you scroll, hit the sync again, so simple.
