SMPTE recorder
« on: April 04, 2015, 03:27:49 AM »

Hello everybody! I'm new to this forum, I registered a few minutes ago.
I'd need some help with SMPTE tracks.

Is there any specific (possibly free and for OS) software to record SMPTE signal over MP3 / WAV / AIFF tracks?
Thanx for letting me know
Have a nice day

Anything can record LTC if that's the format you have your SMPTE output.

As Mac says, what are you trying to do?

I have this device here

http://it.sgmlight.com/products/regia-2048-opera/c-23/p-174

which has SMPTE input, as you can see here:

As I am touring with a show, I am trying to obtain audio tracks with SMPTE signal so that my lighting controller
knows automatically when to trigger a new cue.
I simply need to go play from my computer, and the audio signal merged with SMPTE signal automatically triggers cue.
Of course I need to pre-record SMPTE on audio tracks, and I am looking for a software which allows me to do this.

Thank you all in advance for your help

Can you use midi? I trigger a grand MA on PC with midi. If you do need SMPTE, MOTU makes a few midi interfaces that will write it. I'm looking to get a MOTU Micro Express next month. That would do it.

Reaper can do this.
Look up "SMPTE Generator" in the manual.

QLab, or pretty much any audio software that lets you record channels independently will work. QLab, being show playback oriented may be most flexible for you.

Yes. See page 402 of the manual.
What issue are you having?

Can Qlab generate LTC or MTC?
