I’ve been wrecking my brain to align sync the tempo to frame and you just gave me the answer.

Thanks!

I just wanted to thank you for this video! I keep coming back to this every time I'm setting up a tempo map in Logic, just to make sure I'm not forgetting something 😄

[dudleyspikeclarke]

Thank you so much for this video. This is the best tutorial on this topic I have seen so far, and most I have seen use Beat Mapping, which I found awkward in a way... thank you.

[DanielMichaelTaylorMusic]

I wish I would have had your expertise when I was your age. That would have been a game-changer.

You are a life saver choi. Best video ever. Please keep uploading videos about technical as well as creative aspects of film scoring. Thanks a ton brother!

[RomanWaves]

thank you so much !!! I am about to apply to a Filmmusik school and this is right on the spot for me

Video so good I H A D to leave a comment

[mensamin]

Bro! thank you so much for this video! Really helpful and well explained!

[cesmcmyth]

I had to repeat watching the first modification you did to the tempo based on the marker. Three times I laughed at your proude face. hahaha

Love the video yo! I am subscribed. That subscribe & like reminder at around 7:24 was pretty gnarly! Haha!
Keep up the good work!

Nice vid!! THX!! One problem of mine is how to add a bar in the middle section of already beat mapped or hit point edited projects without messing up already defined sync points. It would need some kind of interpolating a certain amount of SMPTE Time where different numbers of parts had to be inserted. Does Logic provide that? There are DAWs which offer menues for calculating things like this. How to do it in LPX?

Great video! I'm specifically trying to figure out if I can change the tempo at the beginning of the project (for the first scene) without moving any of the audio/midi I already have in place behind it. I attempted to apply this info but couldn't figure it out. Seems like there is no avoiding having to move everything back where I want it if I change the tempo of just one section...?

[wereinmusic]

Great content! Thanks my man!

How did you make the sync point video with the moving white bar? AfterEffects?

Thanks!

QUESTION: I'm trying to adjust my beat map for a certain section. The midi events are all changing when I adjust the tempo. They aren't SMTPE locked so I don't know how to fix it. I'm using a Marker that is SMPTE locked and dragging the beat map bar over to change the tempo to match the marker, then all the midi events in that section are shifting over instead of staying on the beat. Any ideas?

[JSoulKeys]

Is there a way to do this if you have made the music track already and then beat map it to the visual?

[Mojo_Musik]

Great video! If I want the tempo transitions to be as discrete as possible, is there an easy way of gradually fading into the new tempo over the course of whole scene (rather than a short ritardando), without having to manually mess around with curves?

[inarell]

When I change the beat map all my midi items go off grid. What's up with that? I'm using a marker that is smtpe locked but the regions aren't locked.

Where can I purchase streamer -punches and add them to logic pro?
