RegardlessDolan Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 After a long and unfruitful search on the topic, I'm left without a solution, so, I come to you folks. I'm making a song in FL Studio, and about halfway through the tempo increases by 10 BPM. Now, besides the automated instruments, the song also has a .wav file guitar track that plays throughout the entire song (recorded in a separate program). The guitar track accounts for this tempo change, yet FL studio insists on stretching the wav to try and make it match the rest of the song, which, of course, messes it up. Is there any way I can get FL to take its grubby little hands off of my guitar track and just let it play back how it was recorded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrypnyk Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 There is a time stretching box on sample / shape properties tab. I believe if you change the 'resample' option to 'pro transient' or 'speech' or one of those options it has, FL'll leave it alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep all my recordings on "resample" and it doesn't do what Dolan's describing, so I don't think that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need the tempo information for all the wave clips involved in the project to be embedded so FL can read the information whenever you change the tempo. To do that, I open the file in Edison. Once I have it in Edison and I know the tempo information, then I will add that to the information of the file. Right above the window where you see the wave form is a tempo box that is usually empty. Double click it and enter the information of the sample (don't use quick guess or auto detect in Edison). After that, save the sample and open it in an audio channel, or you can drag the sample out of Edison into the playlist. Once you open the audio file into the channel, then go to the channel settings and right click the Time knob and click AutoDetect. After that, then change from resample to Pro Default. That should do it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) I'm quite sure Pro Default does virtually nothing to distort the sound on non-drastic tempo shifts (1~40BPM). Resample, of course, does (hence, resample. ). Tonal may work at times, but not that often. Edited January 10, 2014 by timaeus222 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RegardlessDolan Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 Sorry for the delayed response, I've been pretty busy these last few weeks. Anyways, thanks for the clarification; I was able to get it to work from what you guys said - you rock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
