complex spectra (sound mixes from various instruments or finished mixes). This algorithm
is less suited to drum loops and other audio material with strong transients. The groove
does remain intact, but phase shifting "smudges" the attacks. At smaller corrections (factor
ca. 0.9 - 1.1), the smoothing degree setting of "very low" is often good enough.
The algorithm "smoothed" is especially suited to:
• Orchestral instruments: Strings, woodwinds
• Speech recordings with background noise (e.g. video recordings)
• Speech recordings with background noise (e.g. video recordings)
• Synthesizer areas, guitars
The algorithm "smoothed" is less suited to:
• Stereo mix
• Drum loops, percussion
CPU power usage is too high.
Beat marker slicing
This mode is especially suited to customizing drum loops, but can also be used on other
audio material like monophonic bass runs or sequencer lines. The algorithm splits the
material into individual components of notes or beats, which are then selected via the beat
marker.
These "audio snippets" are then compiled into the new temporal measure: If the tempo is
increased, individual beats begin overlapping, if it is slowed down, short pauses between
the beat become audible.
You should use this algorithm whenever you can as the timeshift is possible here without
having to sacrifice quality at minimum CPU usage.
The algorithm "Beat marker slicing" is especially suited to:
• Samples which can be split into individual notes or beats
• Drum loops, if the beats do not overlap and there is not much reverb
The algorithm "Beat marker slicing" is less suited to:
• Signals for which beat markers cannot be set. Silence will be the result.
The CPU load is very light.
Beat marker stretching
This algorithm works in a similar way to the standard algorithm, the one difference being
that the stretched material is synchronized with the beat markers. This way the groove
remains perfectly intact and doubled or faded out beats do not occur. Unlike the "Beat
marker slicing" algorithm, absolute silence does not occur when there are no markers or
wrongly placed markers, but rather, the synchronization quality is reduced or has errors. In
