I'm working on a project that requires creating short musical arrangements measured in time... seconds and/or fractions of a second... like 4.5 seconds or 9.5 seconds or 14.5 seconds, etc.
Question 1: How can I reset the "big clock" to show zero seconds at the start of bar 1... and not at the start of the 2 bar count off?
Question 2: Is there a way to highlight a section in track view and see how long the track is in seconds?
Question 3: I'm having a hard time with short musical "punctuation" arrangements... say 4 or 4.5 seconds end to end...
- In order to have a nice ending it seems I must check 2 bar ending. - And for song length I have to have at least 1 bar. - And the "2 bar" ending actually creates a sustain for 2 more bars - So my minimum number of bars seems to be 5.
Even if I export the rendering to a wav file and then trim it in Audacity with an early fade on the final sustain notes... and juggle the tempo before rendering from RB... It's a hard job to make it come out right.
I have to do a large number of these, hopefully with each having somewhat of a unique sound... but at the rate I'm going it's looking impossible to get it done on a reasonable schedule.
Anybody have any idea's on how I can speed this up?
PS - for the 1 bar tune + the 2 bar ending + the 2 bar sustain on the end of it all... I'm mostly using a I-type chord like a simple CMaj7 or a FMaj7 or on occasions a minor 7th or whatever. Alternately I've experimented with some version of a II, IV, I sequence... but the results vary since the tune is only 3 to 5 bars long. A "flourish" will work in some instances but I'm unsure how to create these in RealBand other than the above mentioned short tune arrangement.
Down the bottom of the on-screen display, time values are given for a selected region.
In the example shown, the selection is from 6.261 seconds through to 14.604 seconds. The difference between these two values gives the time-length of the selection.
That is, this selection is 14.604 – 6.261 = 7.803 seconds.
