Tempo changing and beatmatching
January 8th, 2007 Casey M.R. Muller
It’s been our number one requested feature, but we did it because we wanted to, not because you told us to: tempo changing and beat matching!
That’s right, a few days ago we added the ability to speed up and slow down your tracks to make them match better. You’ll see that there’s now a speed setting for each track. At 1.0, the track plays at its usual speed, at 0.75 it plays at three quarter speed, and at 2.0 it plays twice as fast. You get the idea. If the track has a tempo set, we’ll show you what the new BPM is after each speed change.
If you just want to make all your tracks have the same tempo (not a bad idea), we’ve also added a button at the top to do the math for you. Pressing it will set each track’s speed to whatever it needs to be to match BPMs with the mix’s BPM.
So for example, we could combine two great Creative Commons remix contests by taking the drums from Peace & Hate (100 BPM), and adding a few melodic pieces from Colors Shifting (60 BPM), and putting them together at 90 BPM:
As always, we’d love to hear what you think!
