How to speed up a tune

Post by Steve AC23 » Thu Feb 22, 2007 11:18 am

Basically, I wrote a dubstep tune at 120bpm by acident, lean as fuck.

Ive sped it up a little with Traktor & recorded it, it sounds alright
but surely theres a way to do it easily? and a bit more proper.
can u just pitch up in like Peak/soundforge?

Just after a bit more professional way of doing it

if it's all MIDI & softsynths, just go back in and raise the tempo and re-bounce. if real audio is involved, you can change the sample rate in peak, import it into a 44.1 session in your DAW, and re-export. it'll essnetially pitch it up or down, like on a turntable.

Try doing it like TeReKeTe said, if not try making it on Acid or Ableton if you have them.

What have you made it on?

If you have Cubase you can do it pretty quick, bounce the tune down as a WAV - pull it up in Cubase and go to the pool (CTRL P) click the tempo (should be a box to put a x in) to the right of the sample and set it to 120 (this should be the default) now when you change the main tempo up the whole tune should change but this will timestratch so the pitch shouldnt be affected - should be better quality TS than Traktor.
