When you’re working with complex RP projects, with lots of tracks and multiple APT and Doubler Processes, it can be a bit tricky to find your way quickly to the correct Processes. With this grid in place, edits to the timing/length of notes become much easier. It’s worth noting that you can switch back and forth between a fixed-tempo grid and the MIDI-derived one without losing either setting. The grid will automatically change to reflect your DAW project’s tempo and time-signature changes, with the audio remaining at the position determined by its timecode. Then, in View/Settings, change the Bar & Beats Display setting to Import Tempo From MIDI File. To import a tempo/time-signature grid is a two-step process. So if you’ve composed a piece with time-signature changes or tempo ramps, or have, say, warped your DAW’s grid to match a live performance, all you need to do is export a MIDI file from your DAW project and import it to RP. Thankfully, Synchro Arts have incorporated a means of importing the tempo and time signature from a MIDI file that you export from your DAW project. Here you can specify a fixed tempo and time signature, but while that’s useful enough for projects that have been either programmed at a fixed tempo or tracked to a fixed-tempo click, it won’t work for every project. Your grid will then appear, and its characteristics are defined in the View/Settings menu. You must also, via the drop-down menu at the bottom of the main GUI, change the view from the default (Timecode) to Bar & Beats. Note that to get a grid to appear in the first place you’ll need to have an audio event in your RP project (the grid disappears when there’s no audio). I didn’t have space last month to discuss the timing grid, so let’s quickly address it here. Before I do, however, there are a few more operational points to run through. In fact, it makes various less obvious possibilities, erm, possible, so this month I’ll consider a few examples. So, hopefully, you’re already fairly proficient with RP, but there are more strings to RP’s bow than the simple aligning, doubling and pitch-correcting of vocals. ![]() ![]() In the previous two articles, I took you through pretty much everything you need to know to manipulate the pitch, time and level of audio manually, how to apply the automatic doubling and alignment Processes, and some useful ways to organise and navigate your RP projects. Welcome to the third and final instalment of our Revoice Pro (RP) series. We explore some more advanced techniques and less-obvious applications for Synchro Arts’ powerful audio-alignment processor. For example, notice the change here from 4/4 on bar one to 3/4 in bar 2. Revoice Pro can import tempo and time-signature information, including programmed changes, from your DAW.
