Resampling/ Timestretching Dialog (Effects menu)
Generating beat markers -- Options:
Find beat marker: The algorithm searches for and marks out beats in the audio material.
Beat recognition threshold: Sets the threshold for beat recognition. When the wave project is being
displayed, you can follow the placement of beats. This also works with VIP objects if the wave project is
kep open simultaneously.
Beat markers can be re-positioned, copied, deleted etc. by activating the applicable marker commands.
When new markers are created, the marker name must be assigned "Beat Marker". Before editing, we
advise that you set the beat recognition threshold to a high value and then delete the redundant markers.
It is quicker than adding markers manually.
You can only edit markers while the dialog is open by using the Timestretching-Patcher . This allows you
to check the results without having to close the dialog.
Monophone Voice
This is Timestretching and Pitchshifting for solo vocals, speech or solo instruments. The material must not
contain background noises and should be free of reverb. With suitable source material, the audio quality
is very high. The "Use formant correction" option secures the formants when pitchshifting so that the
"Mickey Mouse effect" doesn’t occur. You can therefore "compose" a background chorus from just one
solo voice. Formants can also be shifted across + - 12 half-tones to create voice distortion.
Typical uses are:


Intonation correction (imprecisely pitched notes should be removed as objects and worked on
separately)


Harmonizer effects: an object with singing can be copied and shifted downwards. If the pitch is
then changed, a second voice is generated, etc.


Creating background vocals from existing vocal samples
