most of my files are audio files and the proteus x files are midi and they play good together until i export the file as a wave file or mp3.How can I keep the midi playing in sync with the audio when its exported?

Latency?  Reply with quote  

it sounds like you may be monitoring with very high latency.

try reducing the buffer size on your soundcard. this is only a remote possibility

Are you quantising your midi?

....alright so most of your files are audio files...which is fine. Now coming to the last part of the question....the one about keeping MIDI in sync with the audio. If you are exporting the MIDI files as audio then why worry about syncing MIDI with audio? Confused
You could try out what Paul has suggested....and you'll probably have to align all the audio manually if that doesn't work....which could be a tedious task assuming you have a "moderately" sized session.....
I really can't think of anything that could be causing this so called lag you speak about.....quite strange....i've experienced latency while actually recording MIDI but never after exporting the files as audio.

Thanks I will try reducing the buffer size cause I do have to align most of my notes manually so I'll try to move my audio files up a notch if reducing the buffer size doesent work

if you are recording in the piano roll in FL, then alt+q will bring up the quantizer that FL has built in. if you use default it'll lock everything onto every 16th beat in the piano roll.


yep yep
