and is there a way ware if i track all the songs on each channel can i extract them so the play by track on the cd!??
need hel asap

yes there is a way to increase the bpm without changing the pitch, I have no idea how tho, and no there is no way to set cd track markers that Im aware if in PT which sux.

use the time compression expansion tool .. better yet .. if u have 7.4 , use the elastic time thingy .. that will make ur tempo able to go to 150. lay out your mix the way u want it, then export each song by itself .. just move the markers, export, move the markers, export..etc... then just make sure when u burn the disk u put no space in between the tracks, or u could even crossfade them togther by a few ms so they blend perfectly into one another without no stops. almost any cd burner program allows u to do that.

Ash how do you set track markers ? Im using 6.4 LE, if you know.

Oh wait I see what your saying hiighlight each song, and then export the wav file(bounce) then go back and set no space between songs..

im not trying to change the pitch!! just want the whole mix to be at 150bpm
yo but ash!! good looks i know what u talking about!!!i have the older p-tools! with the old m-box
i think it 6.9 le not sure!! but good looks!!
cuz i know in sf i can do it

 

[7thangel]

you can change the tempo within the session and track each song with the appropriate tempo as one long bounce (each song following each other). when recording bands that have drummers that can play to a click track, tempo change is done all the time.

i believe you have to set markers for each song and then set the tempo change. either use slip or grid mode. but since you are using an older version i can't say. never used beat detective but it might help

 

[wizard]

yeah goodlooks!! i dont use beat detective
but good looks ive started the mix already!! and u def gotta set the markers!!

 

[thedreampolice]

For real, just get 7.4 it makes life allot easier.

 

[wizard]

i found out hot to do the pbm's but know i need to learn about the makers so when i burn it on cd it has separate track im doing like a dj tape but on cd and i want it to flow and im using the old jump off 6.9 yeah yeah i will upgrade soon!

rel: the only track markers that I am aware of are within the elastic features of 7.4. Though I am not sure if what I use as track markers to timestretch (via elastic time) are also used with other applications in pro tools, so not completely sure.

wiz: use adobe audution for change the tempo leaving the pitch the same. once you have adjusted the tempo of each file within audution then import them in pro tools.

don't know your version but up top there's a display marker region in view_rulers. there's a + sign which will bring up a marker window with options including name among others.

the quick key is the the enter key in the numerical pad area (or window/apple key+click in marker ruler region)
