Do You Need Help? Post it here / Re: Sequencing lyrics.

« on: November 17, 2017, 07:04:16 PM »

If you right click on a timing track name, you need to select import lyrics.  In the window that pops up you can type in the lyrics.  After the lyrics are entered and showing up in the sequencing grid, then you can adjust them.  Next step is to right click on the timing rack name and select break down phrases, and repeat once again for break down words.

Depending on the settings for the feature, if you double click on a lyric it will play that section by default.  You can change that setting under settings, timing dclick mode, or simply shift double click to edit.

Oh ok. That makes sense.  I'll try that now.  Thanks

I'm attempting to do a singing face and have watched the tutorial but still having problems. The video said to double click on the vocal timing and then add the line you want to breakdown but it's not working. Is there other videos explaining this better? I'm trying to get the easiest method to doing a song. Any help would be great. Thanks.

« on: November 10, 2017, 09:24:35 PM »

I have 2 alphapix 16 controllers and one works perfectly but the other only works in test mode from the controller directly. It pings fine on my labtop but the channels wont activate in test mode or on my sequences? what might be up with that?

Do You Need Help? Post it here / my pixel tree

« on: October 01, 2017, 07:36:34 PM »

So i started testing my pixel tree 12 strands of 50 nodes and i have a question that might be an easy fix.

Running through each song i notice that the lights flicker with the beat of the music. I mean it does everything its supposed to do but at the same time it isnt a smooth transition between effects and it seems like they flicker to the beat of the music as well. Can anybody explain to me why?

Thanks

Gil,

You were 100% correct. I put it on my labtop and everything is working great. So yes the computer was the problem. Thank you for your help.

I think Keith tried to duplicate and its not crashing for him if this was the thread he emailed me about.  Is the computer really old?  What are the PC specs?

Yes the computer is older but runs windows 7 and is 64 bit. It's a Hewlett Packard PC. So based on what you are saying the computer can have issues with the software?

SO the problem is that everytime i try to do a change in layer settings or effect settings the bug report pops up. It will sometimes give me multiple pop ups that say different things. Im currently running the latest update (.26) but it has happened on several of the other updates as well. I have attached the bug reports to view.

 I keep getting the bug report window pop up every time I'm changing an effect. It happens when I alter an effect to do what i want. It happens alot and I can't believe that is simply a bug so I wonder as it has done it on several update versions. I wonder if it's my computer or something I'm doing wrong. It is very frustrating as it happens so much.
