! When you use the Scale Tempo function on Single Take clips (in the Arrange View), the Slice Markers will fol-
low proportionally.
The Scale Tempo function can also be applied to clips numerically in the Tool Window, see “Scale Tempo”.
! When you scale the tempo of large clips, it could take a while before the high quality stretch is finished, see
“Preview vs. High Quality Stretching”.
Transposing Audio Clips
Audio clips can be transposed. That is, all the audio recordings in a selected audio clip can be transposed up or down
12 semitones, in steps of 1 Cent, relative to their original pitch. The transposition can be applied to all types of audio
- including polyphonic material.
! The transposition is non-destructive, i.e. the original audio is always preserved and left unaffected.
! To get the best sound quality when you are transposing audio it’s important that you have selected the correct
Stretch and Transpose Type for the audio track, see “Opening audio clips for editing”.
1. Select one or several audio clips.
The Transpose display shows up to the right in the Inspector:
Three audio clips selected on the arrangement pane in the Song View.
2. Click the up/down arrow button next to the Transpose display to change the transposition in Semitones and
Cents.
The audio in the selected clips are now transposed relative to their original pitch.
D You can also edit the transposition value by clicking and dragging the respective display segment up/down or
entering numeric values according to standard procedures.
• It’s also possible to transpose individual Comp Rows in a Comp clip - see “Transposing Comp Rows” below.
• Audio Clips and MIDI notes in Note Clips can be transposed in whole semitone steps in the Transpose section
in the Tool Window - see “Pitch (Transpose)”.
q If you want to edit and/or correct the pitches of individual notes in monophonic audio recordings (e.g. vocal re-
cordings), you can open the audio clip in Pitch Edit mode, see “Editing audio in Pitch Edit mode”.
