Music Player - Control Settings
In CSDS when you are calling from the screen, control settings such as tempo, volume, and balance can be set. Can I get CSDS to remember these controls instead of having to set them each time? I am especially interested in setting the tempo just once for each piece of music.
There is currently no provision for saving "Volume" and
"Balance" values for each music selection with CSDS.
The recommended way of dealing with "Volume" is to
normalize all your MP3 or WAV recordings. With CoolEdit,
this can be done via "Transform | Amplitude | Normalize".
If you normalize all your recordings, the volume level
will be the same, and you'll rarely have to mess around
with the volume controls when changing songs.
You can also tell CSDS to maximize the output volume
whenever a new piece of music is loaded. This can be
done via "Settings | Music | Maximize Volume".
As for saving "Tempo" changes, you should do the following:
- save all your music within the Music Database
- within the "Edit Music Database" window,
select a song, then bring up the Music Player.
- Play the music, then go to the BPM tab and calculate
the "Beats per Minute".
- Now go to the Contols tab and change the tempo as
desired.
- The changes made are automatically saved to the
Music Database.
- Repeat 2 thru 5 for each song.
