Creating remix objects
The song is cut by beat into individual objects. Some applications may include:
To produce loops from complete songs which can then be used with other
material. Most importantly, not all remix objects are suitable as loops. Ideally,
less complex material should be used, e.g. drums from an intro.
To remix songs, thus changing the sequence of the objects, cutting or
doubling beats or to enrich the song with other loops or synth objects.
To mix two songs: If percussion and tempo fit perfectly, can you blend the
songs without "side effects"?
This option can be activated later from the "Object" menu, provided that the
tempo data is stored.
The "Audio quantization" option: Audio quantization fits new objects exactly in
time with the arrangement.
With homemade music, tempo fluctuations are common, and therefore
different measure lengths may result. Nevertheless, so that the objects fit into
the rigid timing pattern of the VIPs, the time processor is activated
automatically and object timestretching is used to correct the different lengths.
Setting resampling for small corrections: If the necessary corrections are very
small, better quality resampling can be used instead of timestretching.
Afterwards, you should not change the master tempo any longer, since definite
pitch changes may arise.
Remix objects in "Loop" mode: New objects are set in "Loop" mode. When
extending the object with the right object mouse handle, the original length of
the object is played again and again.
Setting the arrangement tempo to the object tempo: (see above)
Note: Time correction assigned to objects can be subsequently cancelled if the
time processor is called up and edited ("Timestretch/Resample object", or
double click on the object to open the FX racks associated with the time
processor).
Cancel: The dialog is closed.
Problems and Remedies regarding the
Auto Remix Assistant
Problem: The playback stutters, the metronome is suspended, the computer is
overloaded... (on older computers.)
