Posted: Tue Oct 25 2005 08:53 Convert sample to right BPM .. |
|
It is quite simple to determine the exact BPM of a sample, BUT , how to adapt this same sample to a diffirent BPM without pitching it up (chipmunks effect ).
Is there a way to get the right bpm without f*cking the vocals etc to much up, i was thinking 'bout an application or vst ?! Or any other way to get it done ... without spending hours and hours cutting the sample in pieces
Anyone ? |

Acid. It can beatmap a sample, stretch it (without much audible artefacts, although this depends on the amount of stretching done), and works quite intuitively. Downside: it costs money.
I think Audicity will also have a stretch-function. Most wave editors have such a thing. There are also some vst plugins that do such a thing, but I don't advice to do these things realtime. |

Okay,
I'm downloading the free trial of acid and research the possibilities according Stretching.
If i want to use VST for the stretching, i won't be in Madtracker though, realtime stretching would use up to much cpu anyways
I'm wondering , since it's called stretching, if it is possible to convert from lower bpm to higher, anyway i will try the products.
Thanx Inge ...
Edit: With the suggestions of Inge and some googling i've found propellerheads' recycle, like DUH, that's really the app i'm looking for . So i hardly can't wait to drive home and try it ....
But first ... some work has be done over here

Audacity.
Audacity is free. You must give actual and wanted tempo... and... voila! |

Free is always good , i will give it a try, thanx for the tip!
I have it installed quite a while but didn't really explore the possebillities of it ...
update : KEWL !!!! that works like a charm , the only thing is to determe the original BPM , but that shouldn't be the problem .... |

Here Acid does miracles. Acid works really nice for this purpose, but then again is dreadfully expensive. The alternative is placing the loop in MadTracker, putting something like a hihat underneath, and check how you should change the bpm to make it fitting. Kinda difficult and time-consuming, but it does the trick. |

a bit offtopic, but...
Have you guys ever listened to some tracks by 'The MFA'?
They use for example short baseline loops of 2 beats long.
Then they play a bassline with it, one note each bar/measure, so the bassline's pitch gets transposed but it isn't stretched so the loop plays out of tempo.
Realy wicked effect, oldschool tracker style, and it funk's like hell

Ooops, sorry for not sharing ...
In fact it's a little nifty DSP plugin for winamp , and is rather precise ...
