Smoothing Audio at low tempos

Post by anonymouse » Thu Apr 21, 2005 7:20 pm

If I have a 120 bpm rhodes loop, and I want to play it at 96 bpm, is there an effect or process that I can apply to the slower version so as to reduce the lower fi/wobble that the sample then suffers from at the lower speed? (i.e. do something to reduce the timestretch effect)

This might be overly obvious, but have you tried not using "beats" warping mode?

Tones or textures might work.

If neither of those do the trick, I would try Recycle (from Propellerheads).

i concur , go to the sample options , and change its re-pitch mode to textures or tones. this wont keep the pitch but will sound much better than the synthetic percussive nature of the beats means of repitching. which is kool to use on vocal tracks for a breakdown , btw
