I am trying to time out my animation and need to load several VO tracks into Cinema 4D. I have broken the animation into several Takes, and want the different tracks to play on particular Takes. I am having a really difficult time trying to get this to work.
I have tried using multiple Sound Effectors, and this works nice because I can enable/disable their functionality. However, the issue comes when I want to adjust their time offset (when to play the file). I have to go back to my Main take go to the Timeline, click the audio track, then set the start time there. I cannot get to the sound attribute pane unless I’m on the Main take.
I tried changing the Time Offset in the Parameter tab of the sound effector, but this didn’t have any effect on offsetting the sound.
There’s gotta be an easier way with Xpresso/user data? I tried getting my hands dirty with xpresso, but cannot get it to work.
I can’t believe there’s not an easier way to have an audio track and set the start time of the audio track when using the Take System.
