Working with Straighten Up

Straighten Up is a function, and as all others in the Master Track editor it is located

on the pop-up Do menu. Straighten up adjusts and inserts tempi to make Linked

Time and Meter Hits match, so that musical positions (Meter Hits) happen at spe-

ciﬁc time cues (Time Hits).

Switching to “Straighten Up Mode” (Show Hitpoint Links)

To display the Links between Hitpoints (instead of the Tempo Match lines) activate

Show Hitpoint Links on the pop-up Options menu.

How Straighten Up works

When you have input and adjusted your Hitpoints and select Straighten Up, all Hit-

points are examined, one pair at a time, starting from the beginning of the song.

To make the two Hitpoints match in time and meter, Tempo Events just before the

pair are adjusted. Visually, this turns any diagonal link-line into a solid vertical one.

If there isn't enough tempo changes for Straighten Up to make a pair match, it will

ask for permission to insert additional tempo Events.

In some cases a perfect match can not be found (for "mathematical" reasons). In

this case, the line remains dotted, but it may be straight on screen anyway. This

slight mismatch (which is always in the millisecond range) probably won't be

noted.

If you have cross-linked Hitpoints, the program will be unable to straighten up and

will inform you via a dialog box.

Working with visual cues

If you are working with music for ﬁlm or video, for example with Cubase VST

synced to time code from a video, Straighten Up is an invaluable tool for making

cues match the picture. Here's a general outline of how to work with Hitpoints and

Straighten Up:

1. Set up synchronisation to the video.

See the Synchronization chapter.

2. Activate the Master Track (press Master on the Transport Bar) and open

the Master Track editor. Set an approximate initial tempo for the music

you have in mind.

3. In the Synchronisation dialog box, ﬁnd a starting point, for example ap-

proximately two bars before the music should actually start.

4. In the same dialog, to make the Time Ruler in Cubase VST display the ac-

tual time code on the tape, set the Time Display to the same value as the

Song Start. Also set Bar Display to for example -2, so that position 1.1.0

in the Song is where the music should actually start.
