GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 751987
Music beats per minute project settings and ruler mode
Last modified: 2015-10-20 13:06:55 UTC
When doing music-intensive edits, especially ones that require remixing songs to shorten them, it would be helpful to have: - A project setting for "beats per minute" (default to 120), beats per measure (default to 4), and maybe "note that gets one beat"* - A representation of that on the ruler (by switching to a "bpm" mode) - Vertical lines for "measures" (depends on bug #575464) This allows easily aligning scene cuts to the beat, or (re)aligning music portions to the beat. And apparently not many video editors have this feature: http://www.reddit.com/r/VideoEditing/comments/35884r/am_i_the_only_one_who_thinks_its_crazy_that_video/ *: that one doesn't mean much at all to me since I'm not a musician. FWIW, Vegas has this option with values such as "Whole", "Half", "Quarter", "8th", "16th", "32nd"). But Vegas started as an audio editing app before becoming a video editing app... ;)
