How to sync Audio to a Midifile[Solved]

[Heinz Hupfer]

HI:)

 

I have a 30 year old Audiofile and want to add some Miditracks to it, but I can't remember how to do that.

 

The Midifile is finished, I imported the audiofile, place the beginning to the startbar of the Midi, then I tried to 

set the now times to the bars, so every bar of the audio I set the now time to a barnumber, but then the midi is

not in sync with the audio, it does have  its own tempo:(

Tried Musical and Absolute, nothing work with the midi.

After I deleted all Tempoevents, the midi plays back with a lot of tempo changes, but why, there's only 1 Tempoevent at

the beginning.

I have done this very often, but don't remember how......Hmmmm I'm getting old.

 

Can please someone help me with this?

 

Thanks;)

Bassman.

Set Measure/Beat At Now aligns the timeline to existing MIDI and Audio tracks without affecting the absolute timing of either. So it won't bring them in sync if they aren't already. And when you delete the tempo changes that brought the audio in sync with the timeline, the MIDI will follow, but the audio won't, so that's not going to get you what you want, either.

What you want to do is align the timeline to the audio first using SM/BAN, and then import the MIDI, and it take on the project tempo(s).

That's it, thank you very much! The last time I needed to do such a work was at least 20 years ago!
