Ted W Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I read a lot about using the Beat wizzard instead of the tapper. When I click on the beat wizzard, I get box that pops up stating something like IME error or something. From there I go and use the tapper.So, 1st time doing this, 80 channels, maybe 11K lights, my first song is Carol of the bells by Manheim Steamroller. What a nightmare, I am overwhelmed. I hope the Beat Wizzard could help, if I can figure out what is going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBullard Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Sounds like it doesn't like your audio file. Maybe traces of DRM if its an MP3.Try with a wav file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted W Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 I bought the music as a MP3 from Amazon. com. This and IPOD format were the only way I could purchase. Can I convert the MP3 to a WAV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I convert the MP3 to a WAV?Yes, you can convert MP3 to WAV..You can also convert MP4 (iTunes format to MP3 or WAV) by either using iTunes itself or a free download called Audacity.Check out this thread:http://forums.lightorama.com/forum80/28337.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitusCarnathan Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 just a note about most amazon audio files most are variable bit rate files not constant bit ratewhich causes that problem when you play your sequence form diffrent points and it never lines up correctly you can convert them in audicity as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
