The electronic part of "Les Chants de l'amour" is a quadraphonic tape.
In order to synchronize the tape with the singers, the conductor should visualize the Time Code.
For the sections where the synchronization should be more precise, a click track is required.
We provide here a ProTools session with the 4 channels sound-files, Time Code and audio click-track.
This session can be easily adapted to any other audio software (such as Digital Performer, Ableton Live or Max).
