I've only really seen this kinda audio manipulation work really well in Logic and ProTools... I dunno if Sonar handles this trip well or not? ----- Original Message ----- From: Stacy Blackwell To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 2:33 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Tempo change after recording audio? Thanks for all the replies and advice on this topic. To make a long story somewhat short, I have prepped 30 songs with click tracks to record my band's new demo. I have added an organ in each song to know exactly where we are during the recording. Since the time required to record maybe 10 of these songs is limited due to our gigs and other obligations, I decided to do as much as I can beforehand. I plan on going ahead and singing a scratch track and going ahead and put my guitars on for real. I'd hate to do all this work and then have one of the other members next month to say it's too slow, and then have to erase my perfected guitar rifts. (It's not like we all live on the same block--we live hours apart and have day jobs and families. Priority speeches don't work anymore, and I know this isn't your problem--it's mine.) My only thoughts about this is to export what I have, the click tracks and organs, and send these via email or CD to each member for tempo approval before recording the guitars. Or I can go ahead and record several guitars, archive them, and then later adjust with the Snap if it is possible with Sonar 7. If I have sighted assistance, will the stretching or shrinking of analog guitar sound as good, or is there some decrease of sound quality with the Snap? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: ddots@xxxxxxxxxxxx To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Tempo change after recording audio?

A number of us have been playing with this feature in Sonar and got it working.

Hello. For one of my first recordings, I had already recorded audio and decided that the tempo was too slow. After I changed the tempo, the audio didn't match the new tempo so I had to re-record my audio. I remembered (after the fact) that it was written in the Caketalking tutorial that changing the tempo after recording audio really doesn't work. Fortunately, I was able to re-record my audio with the new tempo, but I learned a good lesson about making sure you're at the tempo you want before recording vocals. God bless you.

Let's say you have recorded several MIDI tracks and are satisfied with the tempo. And then you recorded a vocal track. The singer says the project is too slow. Can you delete the newly recorded vocal track and then change the tempo? or is Sonar set to where once you record audio, then the tempo change feature won't work? Is this where the snap feature would come into play in regards to changing the tempo of the MIDI tracks and then setting the tempo of the vocal track to the new project tempo? Is this possible? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hotmail® is up to 70% faster. Now good news travels really fast.
