I cannot figure this out.....


For example, I created 2 project files in Cantabile. "Song 1" and "Song 2". After Song 1 is finished, I would like Song 2 to start automatically. I can't figure out how to do this. After Song 1 is finished, the metronome just continues to play forever, until I manually press Stop. I've messed with the Loop Mode, but that only works within one project at a time. I've created a Set List but I still have to manually Start and Stop. Thankyou!

So, I've been trying to figure out why in the world you'd want your songs to be in separate project files... If you're going to work a gig, you'd probably want all your stuff in a single project file, loading up all your instruments and turning the processing on and off to them as needed, having your program changes all loaded and at the ready.

Loading a new project creates a whole new dynamic as instruments are dumped and loaded.

Have you tried separate media clips within the same project, and if so, how did that work out for you?

Okay,

In one project file, named "Song 1" ... I have the Master Tempo for my song, which gives my drummer the accurate tempo for the song we are playing for his in ear monitors. I'll open up the Media tab, and load a.wav file for audio backing tracks for that specific song. I'll then load multiple Midi files which control my external lights.

Song 1 is now finished. I'd like to play "Song 2", which has a different tempo, different .wav files and different midi files.


My problem is that I cannot figure out how Song 2 can play automatically right after Song 1 is finished. I have to manually Stop Song 1 with the space bar, click the next arrow in my set list, then press space bar to start Song 2.



I don't use any VST, VSTi's in Cantabile..I have hardware keyboards/Receptor.


Hopefully that helps explain a little more..... thanks!!
