FRGus723 Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Hello All, I have a fairly simple question that has pushed me to my limits. I have a vocal track a friend sent me. It says 120BPM is what he recorded it in. When I use the Bit mapping feature it tells me it is 156.5 which is definitely wrong. Nonetheless, I am simply trying to take a drum loop sample from one of the Jam Packs and change the tempo of that loop. If I change in the arrange window it changes all the tracks to that tempo which I do not want. When I take an Apple Loop and open it in the Apple Loop Utility, I can change the tempo using the slider but I can not save it with that tempo. I think this is by design but that is what I am looking to do. Does anyone have a simple way of taking any loop (whether Apple loop, midi created loop etc) and change just teh tempo of it to use in a project with a faster tempo? You guys are all wizzes so I'm hoping you guys can help.

David Nahmani Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Well.. you're looking at it from the wrong angle. If you're trying to sync several elements together, you need to make sure all the elements that need to be synced are synced to the project's tempo. Then Apple Loops automatically match the project tempo too. So the first thing to do would be to find the desired project tempo, then adjust your audio tracks so they all play correctly at that tempo.

FRGus723 Posted April 1, 2008 Author Share Posted April 1, 2008 I guess I am a little confused, sorry about that, this is pretty new to me. So I have a vocal track that is set to 120BPM. I created a burnin organ track thru my midi and its tempo is also set at 120. When I look through all the loops I can't seem to find a drum loop that is slow enough to work with this track. However, there are a few I could use if I could slow them down some...does that make sense or am I just lost. Thanks erik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 The loops play at the project tempo. The only way to change the tempo at which they playback is to change your project's tempo. Then you fix the other tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
