I get the feeling the audio clip needs multiple chops and syncing each one as some parts are in time some aren't.Īs for the other poster, fit to tempo in FL Studio doesn't work every time but in a large proportion of cases it does. Whether manual or algorithm in a DAW, there will always be times when it's a struggle (but that's coming from someone with very limited experience in working with syncing acapella's, so what the hell do I know - I'm sure others here have plenty of other, better advice!) There's less transients to detect, there's imperfect or artistic timing, sometimes long silences. You can fine tune the stretch by dragging the edges of the audio clip by holding Ctrl.īut syncing acapella's of unknown tempo is a much more difficult case than say, drum beats. Generally it's best to use FL Studio with snap enabled, 'line.

Selecting (none) means the notes or clips will slide freely, other options like ' line ' will mean the notes/clips will jump 1 line-unit left/right as you drag them, in other words, 'snap to' the lines. It'll now get tagged (the audio clip in the project, not the file itself, you'll have to re-export for that) with the tempo you found and have your project set to, and this'll be its original tempo from where it will stretch, as you return your project to the tempo you had intended for your song. Clicking this will show the snap options. Now delete the audio clip and re-import it. If you have an acapella, one approach is to import it on an audio track, disable stretch on the clip, enable the metronome/play a beat and start adjusting the project tempo until the acapella hits the right beats. The exceptions to this are samples that are already tagged with a tempo, done by Reason when exporting, and this only goes for files exported by Reason, as far as I know - in that case they get stretched from that original tagged tempo to the tempo of your project when you import them. well opaque is my word of choice because I like the wordĪny audio you import on the timeline gets 'tagged' with the current tempo you have set in your project and remains unstretched and unaltered, but stretch is enabled and it will stretch if you change the tempo. The stretching sounds great, but the ways the user interacts with it is. This is an area of Reason that's fairly opaque, in my opinion.
