Tap
Warp
to enable or disable warping of the sample.
When enabled, lengthening or shortening the sample (based on the BPM) will not change its pitch.
When disabled, lengthening or shortening the sample will also change its pitch and vice versa.
Use the
Stretch
field to set the “stretch factor,” which affects how the sample is warped (if
Warp
is on).
Use the
BPM
field to enter a tempo, which affects how the sample is warped (if
Warp
is on).
Tap
BPM Sync
to enable or disable BPM Sync.
When BPM Sync and
Warp
are both enabled, the sample’s BPM will be “locked” to the tempo of the sequence.
When BPM Sync is disabled but
Warp
is enabled, the sample will be independent of the tempo of your sequence—use
the
Stretch
field to lengthen or shorten a sample.
Note
: The Warp algorithms are very CPU-intensive and can result in audio drop-outs during playback if used too
freely. Be mindful of how (and how often) you use the warp function. You can reduce the CPU resources required by
doing any/all of the following:
•
Avoid using extreme
Stretch
values.
•
Minimize the amount of pitch adjustment (e.g., the
Semi
and
Fine
parameters) of warped audio.
•
Avoid warping very small track regions.
•
Warp as few tracks or track regions as possible (i.e., reduce the number of total number of voices of the
polyphonic limit that use the Warp algorithm at a given time), especially instances where the warped regions start
at the same time.
•
Avoid rapidly triggering samples that are warped.
•
If you have warped samples used in a drum program, consider using the
Flatten Pad
function to consolidate the
affected pad’s layers into one audio sample (see
here
to learn about this). After you flatten the pad, its
sample/samples no longer need to be warped.
