Varipitch/practice mode
Samplitude 11 Producer supports any tempo changes during
playback - even in virtual multi-track projects. Right-click on the
scrub control of the transport control.
Active: Activates the Varispeed mode.
Note: Once the Varispeed mode has been activated, you can close
the dialog, control occurs via the scrub control of the transport
control.
Practice mode: If the practice mode is activated the pitch remains
independent of the playback speed. It is especially useful for pieces
used for practice (e.g. an accompaniment with guitar) that must be
played slower because the player might otherwise feel overstrained.
Vertical controller: The playback speed can be changed manually
from -200% to + 200%.
Pitch: The speed factor can be specified precisely, for example, 0.5
for half speed.
Internal rate: Here you can specify a sample rate for the Varispeed
calculation. If, for example, a wave project with 48 kHz is to be
played on a sound card that only supports 44.1 kHz, enter 44100 as
playback rate (left in the dialog) and 48000 as internal rate. What
follows is a real-time resample during playback - a strong feature for
all those, who have to convert between DAT (48 Khz) and CD (44.1
Khz) a lot.
BPM: Here you can specify an original and a target speed in BPM.
Samplitude 11 Producer calculates the Varispeed factor from the
ration to play a 120 bpm sample in real-time with 135 bpm, for
example.
Important: Varispeed also works during recording!
If your singing voice does not quite hit the highest note, simply set
Varispeed on -2 halftones during recording and record - also with
"Playback while recording".
Deactivate Varispeed after that and your voice will reach undreamt of
highs. But be careful, if used too in excess, Mickey mouse is not far
away.
