or use repitch if the set bpm is not going to stray to far from the original bpm

complex warp is the last resort on full tracks ,it's not too bad on most commercial recordings but for djing repitch is the way to go

1. if you are not stretching more than around 7-10 bpm either way complex mode does a decent job. you can beat match all day with that.

2.if you put the clip in re-pitch mode, tis just like a turntable. you can beat match all day with that too.

3.if there is a blanket over your speakers then something is wrong. fix it.

4.there are in fact, various settings(!) in each of the different clip modes. sometimes your track will require(!) you to experiment with teh settings to improve the sound.

5."and that is the folly of man" is a allusion to the fact that it indeed sounds better with warp turned off, yet you cant really use the program to beatmatch whilst it is so. irony, in a sense.

please check out some of these options and see if it improves both your quality of sound, and your quality of life.

thank you.

So, Media Player is good and Live is bad? 8O
Is this opposite day? I thought that was Wednesdays.

How long have you used Live?
