lyrics - how to

Post by Major Grubert »

Hello. I am a newbie to Magic and am playing around since a couple of days. My daughter is studying music and I want to make some clips for her songs. I made some video and waveform overlays and am happy with that.

My challenge (aka problem) is now, how to build in the lyrics of a song line by line as economical as possible. Having 25 different scenes just because the lyrics have 25 lines seems to me somehow clumsy. Did anybody here some stuff like this and can explain how to? I would be delighted.

Thanks

The TextFile module lets you read one line from a file at a time.

You can increment the line # using the PlaybackTime value: https://magicmusicvisuals.com/downloads ... alFeatures
