Thank you.chibear wrote: I have a project with about 40 tempo changes implemented via either markers or conductor track (as we are bringing in other DAWs). So I use the project tempo slider thingy and it changes all the different tempos relative to the original tempo?? Ya, I want that.
Is there really a need to slow down 40 tracks just to record something correctly? And correct me if I'm wrong but when you state 'return to the correct speed' you DO mean return to the original project BPM right? What it could possibly mean is that a track had a different tempo than the project or other tracks within the project.aj113 wrote:Notice the word "return". What do you think that could possibly mean? Come on now, I know you can do it......
Yes. How else do you suggest it is done, and why do you think people would ask for it if it wasn't necessary? Why is this an issue for you?AHornsby wrote:...Is there really a need to slow down 40 tracks just to record something correctly?
But since nobody has said anything abot slowing down a single track, and the whole thread is about slowing down the playback speed of a project, it's not likely to mean that, is it?And correct me if I'm wrong but when you state 'return to the correct speed' you DO mean return to the original project BPM right?

Another straw man. I didn't say Mixcraft is onerous, I said that the task of slowing down the playback is onerous - as others have also said.It's too bad that you find Mixcraft so onerous.
Yes, that's the way it works. It's called a feature request. It's a very common practice with all software. You should try it, instead of objecting to the feature requests of others on no grounds other than you don't think it's necessary.Maybe you could turn the page and let everybody know what features all the other DAW's have that Mixcraft doesn't, so they could just program the perfect DAW for you all at once.
Yet another straw man. I never said anything abut my own playing. I run a professional recording studio, some clients want this facility. If you can point to where I have insulted anyone, I will apologise.Or better yet, make some attempt to recognize that trying to insult people won't make you a musician.
Yeah I haven't read all the replies, so at this point, I may be repeating something already said or appear to be rambling incoherently, I don't know. Just trying to remain constructive.chibear wrote: OK, So going waaaay back to the OP and his Reaper example.
I think you raise very good points about the viability and potential limits of such a feature.chibear wrote: I have a project with about 40 tempo changes implemented via either markers or conductor track (as we are bringing in other DAWs). So I use the project tempo slider thingy and it changes all the different tempos relative to the original tempo?? Ya, I want that. Knowing a fair bit of coding, I would also like to see how that would be accomplished in a 40+ track project....if anyone wants to share

Not really Jon, my interpretation and understanding of the original question has nothing to do with "sections" but just the ability to reliably slow down the project playback while retaining pitch.JonInc wrote:So basically we're talking about a way to speed up or slow down project sections of any length, whether audio or midi, in as simple a method as possible. Right?
Hi, Mark. I was including the entire project in my thinking too, hence the part "sections of any length". But yeah, I could have worded that better.Mark Bliss wrote:Not really Jon, my interpretation and understanding of the original question has nothing to do with "sections" but just the ability to reliably slow down the project playback while retaining pitch.JonInc wrote:So basically we're talking about a way to speed up or slow down project sections of any length, whether audio or midi, in as simple a method as possible.
