Step Programs!

frigtionn · 03-23-2008, 09:02 AM

Ok, I want to know if there is a other program for stepping your own songs than Stepmania. If you know a program, say it here and give a url to the site.
And you can give your opinion about the program that you use ( why it is so good or why it just sucks ) so let me know !

http://www.ddreamstudio.com/ DDReam Studio, good for syncing if you know how to use it
http://www.thomasscott.net/xstep/xstep-1-0-2.zip XStep, not very good
http://dwi.ddruk.com/ Dance With Intensity, SM is better.

Stepmania is the best, don't know why you want to switch.

Well, I don't want to switch but maby there is a better program. I work now with ddreamstudio and stepmania , I find the beats in ddream and than I put arrows in Stepmania. I really can't find beats with stepmania , don't know why, but thanks for the urls I will try them out and see if I like them!

You send me a PM and for some reason I couldn't reply. It says you have not enabled Private Messages, so here:

Well, yes you can find beats by ear (I assume you mean the BPM for syncing which you can change using F7 and F8 I think in Stepmania)

An easier way for songs that have a constant tempo is to use a BPM Finder, such as http://www.mixmeister.com/bpmanalyzer/bpmanalyzer.asp

That will give you the BPM. Then you need to find the "Gap." (Which you can change with F11 and F12) This is basically the exact second that the song starts at (which usually is not 0.00)

You can slow down the music to find a good estimate of what second the song starts, or you can use a program like http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/ Audacity to find the exact second by importing the MP3 file.

Hope this all helps, good luck stepping!

Looks like I'll have to stick with DDREAM, SM stopped working for me. Goes too slow, can't even tell whats going on.
Anyone know if DDREAM can have BPM changes and stops?

BPM Changes = Yes
Stops = Yes*

If you save/load in the ds format, stops work as intended. BUT If you load from the SM format, stops may shift the arrows and beats on the visualization and may cause confusion (as of v. 1.10).

Many people do the BPM changes in ddream then do the stops in SM.
