Master Mode with SMPTE timecode

This function requires the Pro License or higher (not available for additional licenses). See also Licenses and functions.

You can use Wings Vioso RX to output SMPTE timecode to sync up other devices. For this purpose, a timecode object is placed in an audio track and the timecode output via a soundcard channel. If you need stereo sound at the same time you need a multi-channel sound card.

Important note: Currently, output of SMPTE time only works with WMD drivers! Unfortunately, sound cards supporting ASIO drivers exclusively are not able to do so.

And this is how it is done:

    1. Right-click an audio track and select Insert SMPTE timecode.

    2. The Properties Dialog allows the following settings:

    3. SMPTE Timecode  ...output in the left or right channel of the output specified in the Track Properties.

    4. Start value ...defines the time output at the beginning of the Timecode Object. Entry is in minutes and seconds; decimal entry for values below one second (not in frames).

    5. Comment ...to enter any designation that becomes visible in the object info line.

    6. Slider control ...to adjust the audio level. Please note that this level is also influenced by the sum and master level control. See also Sum Level.

    1. For multi-channel sound cards you need to enter the corresponding audio output in the Track Properties. Otherwise the selected channel of your stereo sound card is used which does not allow any other audio objects to be added.
