Hi Mac,
i take your point about the kind of playing that a drummer would do being different at wildy different tempos.

This, however, was a song that was originally at 140bpm and the Realdrums (and realtracks) sounded fine at that speed. I expanded the measures (to get 8 beats per bar) and that doubled the song tempo to 280bpm.

The Realtracks automatically switched to half time and sounded pretty much the same as they had originally (i.e. half speed cancelled out double tempo).

My assumption was that if I could get the realdrums to also play at 280bpm but at half time then they would also sound pretty much the same as they had sounded originally at 140bpm (i.e. before I expanded the measures and doubled the song tempo).

Is that not the case?

Regards, Aubrey
