Synchronizing Audio with Light Scenes in Daslight 4

Post by linnetnursery »

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a project where I need to synchronize my lighting scenes with an audio track using Daslight 4. I’ve already set up a few scenes, but I’m struggling to get them perfectly in time with the beats of the music. Is there a feature within Daslight 4 that can help me achieve this, or should I be using an external tool for better synchronization?

Also, if anyone has tips or tutorials on how to set up light shows that are beat-synced in general, I’d appreciate any advice!

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Using Daslight4, you may want to look into the MIDI Clock feature in order to give the software the exact beat you need it tu use. Pulse-based triggers are nice, but that's mostly meant for light flashes to be triggered from sound level.

Otherwise you can also look into Daslight5, which has a bunch of new tools that'll allow you to trigger your scenes to the millisecond, and to sync it visually, on a timeline view, with your audio files.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
TomHat
