Hi

You first need to open up the audio analysis which can be found in the options menu. Select weather you want to set a manual BPM, tap a bpm or trigger a beat from an incoming audio signal.

If you choose audio, make sure your microphone or line in is enabled within the windows sound mixer.

Finally, to trigger the next step of a scene, simply right click the scene in live mode and select a BPM option. Below is a copy of the information which can be found within the LIVE chapter of the user manual:

You can synchronize a scene with BPM (Beats Per Minute). The scene will follow the pulse sent from the AUDIO ANALYSIS tool. Each beat will trigger the next step of the scene.

Click on the BPM button in the toolbar to start the AUDIO ANALYSIS.

Right click on the scene button to activate BPM triggering.

Connect up an audio feed to the line input, or play some audio though your microphone and check the line in or micropone level within the windows audio mixer. If you are using a line input, your microphone channel may need to be switched off.

Within the audio analysis, you have 3 ways to calculate the BPM: Automatic, Manual or Memorized.
There are 3 options when triggering a scene by BPM:
- BPM ON STEP: Each time a trigger is received from the AUDIO ANALYSIS, the next step will be activated
- BPM WITH FADE: Each time a trigger is received from the AUDIO ANALYSIS, the next step will be activated, however the step fade times will also be taken into consideration
- BPM ON SCENE: The scene resets everytime a trigger is received

Select TIME to disable BPM triggering
