Explanation of BPM

[bshoc]

Hey guys,

I have looked in the manual and all over youtube trying to learn what exactly the benefits of Auto BPM, Manual BPM, and the BPM tool in the time line are, and how to use them? Would someone mind explaining all the things we can do with BPM in ShowXpress. Thank you for your time!

P.S. - I'm using Version 8

Hi
you can use the BPM features to match your chaser/switcher/... scenes you created in steps tab to the beat of music.
Just right click scene - speed settings and set it to manual or auto BPM.
- manual lets you click the top right button on the live tab below these 4 red dots. You can also use CTRL+space or enter a custom bpm.
- auto bpm uses the computers sound input and tries to get a beat out of it.
Unfortunaly I do not know how to use the BPM tool in timeline.

Thanks Sven, I appreciate your help!
I found out the BPM tool can be used to manually change the BPM automatically on the timeline.
have a great day!
