Phased / Offset Clip Start Position

Post by RossMcIntosh »

I'm using column triggers to run what is in essence a timeline show.

I need to play across 6 slices the same clip where the playback is phased but in a continuous loop all day.

Currently I am rendering 6 versions of the same clip where each one is 10 seconds behind the previous one and loading in to 6 layers.
Essentially they start at 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 seconds so that they all show a different part of the clip but remain in sync throughout the "experience".

But in my head it would make sense from a resources and rendering point of view to utilise the same clip on 6 layers and just phase their starting position when triggered.

I actually thought I could do this already.
Transport is timeline rather than BPM as I need them to play in real time rather than composition BPM.

Any thoughts or possibilities of this in future as I suspect I'll regularly be asked to do this now.
