Any Time Stretch Experience in RB's AudioEdit window?

PG Music Home

Happy New Year - I-m still working with 2011.5 while 2012 is waiting for installation.

I have a lead vocal track at 90 bpm, Key C.
I want to insert this track in an 80 bpm tempo SEQ, without changing Key.

Is the AudioEdit Window in RB the best vehicle for this task - using the time stretch to make 90 bpm vocal fit with backing tracks at 80 bpm.

Pros and cons. Is there a better alternative? Too lazy to re-sing at the moment.

Thanks - Ian

Why Ian I am shocked...LOL! Couldn't resist kidding.

I've never tried speeding up or slowing down a recorded vox track in RB. Maybe make a copy of the track saving your original and try it.

I just experimented with an instrumental track I played lap steel on. Slowed the tempo from 92 to 85 and the converted audio tracks sound just fine, so I'd guess that a converted vocal track might sound OK as well ?

What's the matter Ian ,are you broken ? LOL

Quick catch, Tommy, for 6:42 AM.

I erased my pitch correction software by mistake.

Thought I might take a friendly gibe or two over this one.

Actually I like the RTs I have, and their current tracking, too much to change their bpm and rewrite their current incarnation.

So the vox becomes experimental. . . . after copying.
I don't like figuring out the math either.

Hi Mitch

Sunny cold and white outside - perfect day for experimenting.
Thanks for giving it a shot. I don't read about this feature being used that often.

Guess it's time for the Polar Bear swim . . . hmmmmm - coffee first.

Ian, not sure if this is a problem or not but I can see a possible issue with getting the vocal to synch exactly with the backing tracks. If that happens, try the reverse, make the backing tracks 90, render the whole thing to a fully mixed stereo wav and then bring that back in and time stretch it down to 80.

Shouldn't have to, RB offers tempo change in addition to time stretch in the right click option (if the original tempo is know)
