Smartsound plugin

Stephen, their web site says that markers are transferred from Vegas Pro to SmartSound so you could mark the hits in Vegas and have the markers show up in SmartSound and never have to transfer the video. At least that’s what their web site leads me to believe. Would that help your workflow?

[Steve Rhoden] “Take a look back at CineScore, THAT was “tightly” integrated.”
Oh, I get what you mean… If I remember correctly Cinescore had a habit of having to render things before you could use them so you would try and select different sounds and be constantly paused while it unpacked, or rendered, or did something that slowed things down. It wasn’t exactly an optimal workflow but it was more tightly integrated I agree.

Well, Mr. read the manual…. (vbg)
Tried it, and yes, there they are (the markers). No need to transfer the video, just name the markers and they show up on the SonicFire timeline.
I wonder what other surprises are in there if I just read a bit more…..
I gotta wonder if this extension is a trial balloon to see if there is any interest in the Vegas community to possibly fully integrate SF as a plug-in.

I doubt it. This is exactly how it works in Final Cut Pro X. You drop a generated media clip onto the timeline, resize it to the length you need, then press a Generate Music button and it opens the SmartSound interface, you compose your music and it gets placed back into your project. I’d be surprised if they did something tighter with Vegas Pro.

Off topic a bit but why is my “add hit” button greyed out? What do I do to initialize it?

Hi Guys,
SmartSound Music is great and with the plugin it makes it even better. It has made customizing music simple, fast, saves a lot of time, time is money. I use SmartSound Music in my DVD’s all the time. Great job Frank and staff at SmartSound Music.
Happy Travels

Roger, I’ve never seen that. Make sure you have hit files in
C:\ProgramData\SmartSound Software Inc\Sound Files HitsYou could also just call SmartSound. Their support was relatively fast the one time I had a question.

[Stephen Mann] “Make sure you have hit files”
Yea, on my Mac version the button says “Add Hit File” and when you do, there are lots of different hits to choose from. This assumes you have downloaded the hit files when you installed.

I wonder if you could make your own hitfiles? They are sds files and they play in VLC, so why couldn’t you make your own? Problem I’ve found is that there doesn’t seem to be any sds support in any PC audio editor. I did find one for the Mac, though.
