this is probably a daft question but is there anyway to warp an entire track that changes tempo, say from 174bpms then slows down to a kind of electo part at 140 or so and returns to 174...


Obviously it would be best that the overall tempo of the track does not change to a specific value, but perhaps a percentage... ie starts t 100% of the tempo then moves to 70% (for example), so that the tempo adjusts automatically (and so does the tempo of other tracks playing alongside...)

Any ideas anyone?

1. Warp audio
2. open automation lane on Master Track, Arrangement view
2a. select the correct automation type from drop down menu (song tempo)
3. draw a line from 174 bpm to 140 bpm

done.

thanks man, is there a way to contain this kind of automation within a single warped file - ie so I can DJ with the tracks?

cheers

You can save the warp markers attached to an audio file, or you can save the session with the automation data.

If you want to save a track that you made slow down, use Render.
You might want to re-add warp markers.
